|
|
Marine Corps; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Raised in La Grange by his grandparents, Margie |
|
|
Buscha and the late Matt Buscha, Mr. Buscha was inspired to join the |
|
|
military by his grandfather, a veteran of the U.S. Army; so eager |
|
|
was he to enlist that he took extra classes in high school in order |

to attend basic training in California during his senior year; he |
|
|
graduated from boot camp and from La Grange High School on the same |
|
|
day; and |

|
WHEREAS, After receiving training as an engineer and heavy |
|
|
equipment operator at Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri, Mr. Buscha |
|
|
served five tours of duty overseas, three in Iraq and two in |
|
|
Afghanistan; from 2007 to 2010, he taught young marines as an |
|
|
instructor at Fort Leonard Wood; Mr. Buscha completed active duty |
|
|
in February 2015 at the rank of staff sergeant; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Korey Buscha and his wife, Kristi, were joined in |
|
|
matrimony in 2008; now the parents of two young daughters, they have |
|
|
settled in La Grange, where Mr. Buscha is restoring the house that |
|
|
his great-grandfather built; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Americans owe a profound debt of gratitude to the |
|
|
men and women of this nation's armed forces, and over the course of |
|
|
his career, Korey Buscha embodied the highest ideals of the U.S. |
|
|
Marine Corps; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby commend Korey Buscha for his steadfast service |
|
|
in the U.S. Marine Corps and extend to him sincere best wishes for |
|
|
continued success and happiness; and, be it further |
|
|

|
|
