Speaker. I rise today to salute the recent accomplishments of an outstanding public servant now completing his 24th year of exemplary service to the U.S. Border Patrol. For the past 3 years. often under difficult circumstances. Chief Border Patrol Agent Dale Cozart has faithfully served the people of the San Diego area. The 10mile stretch along the Mexican border near San Diego is the scene of the largest number of illegal entries into the United States each year. And. as many Americans and Mexicans can attest. it Is a place of high emotion. crime. and conflict. demanding both courage and patience from those who police it. Few have ever worked as effectively or heroically there as Dale Cozart. Dale began his career with the Border Patrol in Brownsville. TX. and has risen steadily through the ranks winning the respect and admiration of his peers in each of his assignments. In 1986. he was rewarded and entrusted with overseeing all operations at the San Diego crossing.
