BRAYMAN | 2023-12-13 | 2023 | 2023-12 | Democrat | House | NY | Joseph D. Morelle | M001206 | morelle.house.gov | morelle | https://morelle.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | December 13, 2023 (Washington, DC)—Today, Congressman Joe Morelle delivered a “One Minute” Speech to the House of Representatives in honor of U.S. Air Force Major Select Terrell K. Brayman, an airman from Pittsford who lost his life last month in a training exercise off the coast of Japan. His remarks will appear in the Congressional Record, and the transcript is below. “It is with deep sorrow I rise to acknowledge the loss of U.S. Air Force Major Select Terrell K. Brayman of Pittsford, New York. On November 29th, Major Select Brayman, an Osprey pilot and Flight Commander, perished during a training exercise off the coast of Japan, along with seven of his fellow airmen. Major Select Brayman, who would have celebrated his 33rd birthday a week from today, grew up in Rochester and was described as hardworking and hilarious by those closest to him. Following his graduation from high school, he enrolled in Ohio State's ROTC program, successfully becoming an officer in the United States Air Force. He went on to serve with great distinction, demonstrating commitment to a cause greater than himself. For that, our community and nation will be forever grateful. My heartfelt condolences go out to his family and all who knew him. I hope they take comfort in knowing Major Select Brayman's profound sense of duty, patriotism, and dedication to our country will forever remain his legacy. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I yield back my time.” Video footage is available and can be viewed here. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T01:14:16Z |
