Madam Speaker, I move to suspend the rules and pass the bill (H.R. 1609) to redesignate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 201 West Boston Street in Brookfield, Missouri, as the ``Admiral Donald Davis Post Office Building''.

Madam Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that all Members may have 5 legislative days to revise and extend their remarks on the bill under considerations.

Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.

H.R. 1609, introduced by the distinguished gentleman from Missouri (Mr. Graves), redesignates the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 201 West Boston Street in Brookfield, Missouri, as the Admiral Donald Davis Post Office Building. The entire delegation from the State of Missouri has cosponsored this legislation.

Madam Speaker, this bill honors a true American combat hero. Admiral Donald Davis served as a sailor and later as an aviator in three wars for the U.S. Navy. His esteemed career covered 38 years following his graduation from the Naval Academy in 1943.

During World War II, Admiral Davis took part in nine missions aboard the cruiser Mobile in the Pacific Theater. After earning his pilot's wings in 1946, Admiral Davis spent the next 12 years in naval fighter squadrons. During the Korean War, Admiral Davis flew 51 combat missions. Finally, while serving in the Vietnam War, he was assigned to be commanding officer of the aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk in the Indian Ocean. Admiral Davis' career culminated with his tour as commander of the Pacific Fleet from May of 1978 to July of 1981. Among his many honors, Admiral Davis was awarded the Air Medal with a gold star, was twice awarded the Distinguished Service Medal, and earned the Legion of Merit four times.

Admiral Davis passed away in July of 1998, but I understand the gentleman from Missouri has known Admiral Davis and his wonderful family for some time. I am privileged to be a part of the consideration of this legislation that renames the post office in Brookfield after the distinguished Admiral Donald Davis.

Therefore, Madam Speaker, I urge all Members to vote in favor of H.R. 1609. I thank the gentleman from Missouri for introducing this measure.

Madam Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.

Madam Speaker, I urge all Members to support this measure.

Madam Speaker, I have no further requests for time, and I yield back the balance of my time.

Madam Speaker, on that I demand the yeas and nays.

Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.

H.R. 1609, which names a postal facility located at 201 West Boston Street in Brookfield, Missouri, after the late Admiral Donald Davis, was introduced by the gentleman from Missouri (Mr. Graves) on April 3, 2003.

Admiral Davis had a very active and distinguished military career which spanned three wars: World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War. A graduate of the United States Naval Academy, Admiral Davis flew with the Navy's first jet squadron, trained fighter pilots, and served as a commanding officer of the carrier Kitty Hawk.

During his career, which lasted almost 40 years, Admiral Davis received a number of distinguished and meritorious military declarations: two Distinguished Service Medals, four Legion of Merit, and an Air Medal with a gold star.

As a true hero and patriot, Admiral Donald Cooke Davis served his Nation and community with great honor. I commend my colleague for seeking to recognize the admiral's contributions in this manner. I urge swift adoption of this bill.

Madam Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.

Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate proceed en bloc to the immediate consideration of the following post office naming bills: Calendar No. 150, S. 867; Calendar No. 152, S. 1207; Calendar No. 153, H.R. 825; Calendar No. 154, H.R. 917; Calendar No. 155, H.R. 925; Calendar No. 156, H.R. 981; Calendar No. 157, H.R. 985; Calendar No. 158, H.R. 1055; Calendar No. 159, H.R. 1368; Calendar No. 160, H.R. 1465; Calendar No. 161, H.R. 1596; Calendar No. 162, H.R. 1609; Calendar No. 163, H.R. 1740; and Calendar No. 164, H.R. 2030.
