         MAJ. GEN. PAUL E. STEIN, DIRECTOR, LEGISLATIVE LIAISON

  Mr. NUNN. Mr. President, on behalf of the members and staff of the 
Armed Services Committee, I want to take this opportunity to personally 
thank Maj. Gen. Paul E. Stein for his distinguished service to our 
committee and the U.S. Senate as director, Air Force legislative 
liaison. General Stein will be promoted to the rank of lieutenant 
general today and will become the next Superintendent of the U.S. Air 
Force Academy. He testified before the committee on his nomination and 
demonstrated a solid grasp of the issues and the challenges ahead in 
this new position.
  For the past 2 years, General Stein's thorough understanding and 
detailed knowledge of all aspects of Air Force operations and the 
intricacies involved in the legislative process have provided positive 
results for both the Armed Services Committee and the Air Force. 
General Stein is known for his high integrity and strong leadership, 
all of which allowed him to coordinate and supervise highly successful 
legislative liaison action. During his tenure, the Air Force liaison 
team provided timely, accurate, and high quality information on Air 
Force issues and programs to congressional offices.
  We all have been extremely fortunate to have General Stein as our 
legislative link to the Secretary and Chief of Staff of the Air Force. 
He has been an outstanding Air Force ambassador on Capitol Hill and has 
served with distinction. General Stein has earned our grateful 
appreciation for a job well done.
  Mr. President, I know my colleagues on the Armed Services Committee 
and in the Senate join me in thanking General Stein for his service to 
the Senate and to the Nation. We congratulate General Stein on his 
promotion and his new position. We extend our best wishes to him and 
his family for continued success.
