mr. russell: thank you, mr. speaker, and congresswoman si ma. it is a serious issue that our nation faces -- congresswoman sinema. it is a serious issue our nation faces when we consider what our veterans face and we see them become casualties in a battle with the mind. those of us who have burdened the battle of -- battle carry the weight of that burden the rest of our lives. as a warrior, i have seen the worse things that human beings can do to one another. i've had to take human life. i've had to watch fellow warriors lose theirs. i've caressed wounded brothers as they have been bleeding. we recall these things and carry these things and as warriors we attempt to process it all when we come home. when we do come home, others attempt to interact with us. not quite knowing how that interaction should play out or how to treat the americans that we really are. and so as we address this issue of veteran suicide and as we stand here to speak in support of the many good measures that we have heard today, mr. speaker, i would also like to provide a c

mr. russell, for 0 minutes. mr. russell dwhrverage thank you, mr. speaker -- mr. russell: thank you, mr. speaker. it is a psychological effect of life that when it comes to human beings, the best predictor of future behavior is past behavior. period. end of story. psychologists who study human behavior agree that past behavior is a useful marker for to you fur -- for future behavior. but only under these certain specific conditions. for example, high frequency habitual behaviors are more predictive than infrequent behaviors. predictions work best if done over short periods of time, based upon these behaviors. the anticipated situation must be essentially the same as the past situation that activated the behavior in the first place. also, the behavior did not change by corrective or negative action or feedback. the person must remain essentially unchanged in their consistent behavior. the person must be fairly consistent in his or her behaviors over time. forensic psychologists that observe such behavior often use metaphor to warn of serious danger by referring to s

mr. russell said, the level of wildly inaccurate speculation about sergeant bergdahl is outrageous. job he could do and i respect him for it. general dahl said the six soldiers killed search for bowe bergdahl is the stuff of mythology. general dahl said no soldiers were killed in the search for bergdahl. general dahl said sergeant bergdahl did not desert to join the taliban. general dahl did not say whether bowe bergdahl should be court-martialed but he did say, quote, i do not believe there is a jail sentence at the end of this procedure. i think it would be inappropriate. now we know that donald trump is not going to rewrite his stories about bowe bergdahl to include everything that major general kenneth dahl has now said about the case. donald trump will probably choose one of two options. one, simply to stop talking about bowe bergdahl or, two, just keep saying the same things about bowe bergdahl, just keep making stuff up. >> when we get a traitor named bergdahl, a dirty, rotten traitor, who, by the way, when he deserted, six young beautiful people were killed trying to find hi

mr. russell: thank you, mr. speaker. mr. chairman. this measure is to memorialize the service of bob kalsu by designating the post office in del city, oklahoma, to carry his name. bob was born as james robert kalsu and attended del city high school in del city, oklahoma, my alma mater and my hometown. at 6'3" and 235 pounds he was an all american offensive tackle in 1967 playing for the university of oklahoma as they on the big 8 conference title. the buffalo bills of new york selected him in the eighth round of the 1968 college draft but he quickly proved himself by earning the team's rookie of the year award in his first american football league season as forward. it would also be his final season of professional football. bob had made an rotc commitment, earning a commission in the field artillery in college, and in late 1969 he was called to duty in the republic of vietnam. he was told that as a pro football player, arrangements could be made where he wouldn't have to serve, but bob would have none of it. he said, quote, i gave my
