“I am honoring Air Force Major Alexander Davis from Goldsboro. He died on June 15 in a plane crash at Edwards Air Force Base with seven other airmen. I want to remember his life and his service to our country.”
“Madam Speaker, I rise with a heavy heart to honor Air Force Major Alexander Davis of Goldsboro. On June 15, our Nation mourned when a tragic B-52 mishap at Edwards Air Force Base claimed the lives of eight brave airmen. Alex was among them, and his life was defined by selfless service. From earning the rank of Eagle Scout to his time at North Carolina State University and his distinguished military career, he faithfully answered every call to serve. Whether flying missions, modernizing our Air Force, or encouraging those around him, he was dependable. He dreamed of one day becoming an astronaut, always reaching for the skies. Eastern North Carolina will always be proud to call him one of our own. To Doug, Karen, and his family, we grieve with you. We pray with you. We will forever remember Major Alexander Davis, a beloved airman, a beloved leader, and a true American hero.”
