mike bloomfield. it was the space shuttle of lintas. there are already -- atlantis. there are already three astronauts and cosmonauts at the space station. i am the flight engineer, so i am sort of in the middle in the back -- back row. that was one of my jobs on that mission. taking off with 70 million pounds of thrust, which is pretty exciting on a florida afternoon. as you know, those solid rocket boosters only operate for the first to the zero minutes of launch -- two minutes of launch. then we go the rest of the way on the shuttle main engines. once we get into orbit, we start preparing for the rendezvous with the international space station. you kind of need to be hanging on when you do that. they do in part a force on the shuttle. then there was a team of three -- the commander, the pilot, and me -- working to the rendezvous procedures as we bring in navigation information and data. this is a picture of us taken from the crew on the international space station. that big piece in the middle was the thrust section we were bringing up. that big silver ball is whe

in 1922, william bloomfield, a deputy sheriff serving in bourbon county, was arresting a well-known criminal when he was killed during a fierce gun battle. these two men honorably served by faithfully carrying out their duties. rather than shirk from danger, police officers pledged to face danger with courage, and that is exactly what these two men did. just five months ago, kansans were grieved by the loss of another officer, sergeant david ensbrenner of achison, kansas. on december 9, 2001, david joined a fellow officer on a routine call to see a local resident. as they were turning to leave the front step of the home, a person suddenly appeared and opened fire on david without warning. this act of violence was unprovoked and forever robbed the ensbrenner family of their father and husband and the achison community of a loyal public servant. when we lose someone in a community in kansas, it's not just a name to us. it's somebody we go to church with. somebody we see at our kids' activities at school. somebody we know and care for. that is how achison felt about david. in remembering david,
