CONGRATULATING CAPT. EULOGIO C. BERMUDES ON HIS APPOINTMENT TO THE U.S. 
                    NAVAL SHIP REPAIR FACILITY, GUAM

                                 ______


                        HON. ROBERT A. UNDERWOOD

                                of guam

                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, August 17, 1994

  Mr. UNDERWOOD. Mr. Speaker, I would like to commend and congratulate 
Capt. Eulogio Bermudes of the U.S. Navy on his command appointment to 
the U.S. Naval ship repair facility on Guam.
  The distinguished captain is the son of the late Juan L.G. Bermudes 
and Maria Concepcion. He is married to the former Carmen Meno Paulino 
and is the father of five children: Florina, Tanya, Vincent, Eloy, and 
Renee. He graduated from George Washington High School as valedictorian 
of his class in 1965 and subsequently attended the University of Guam. 
Receiving his appointment from the late Governor Manuel F.L. Guerrero, 
he had the prestigious honor in 1970 of being the first Chamorro to 
graduate from the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis where he was awarded 
a degree in mechanical engineering. He also holds a master of science 
degree in mechanical engineering from the U.S. naval postgraduate 
school.
  Captain Bermudes built upon his educational training through a wide 
range of assignments. Prior to his present assignment on Guam, Captain 
Bermudes served at the Pearl Harbor Naval Ship Yard, the Mare Island 
Naval Ship Yard, the U.S. Naval Ship Repair Facility at Subic Bay in 
the Philippines, the U.S.S. Samuel Gompers, the CINCPACFLT at Pearl 
Harbor in Hawaii, the Naval Reactor's Representative's Office at Pearl 
Harbor, the U.S.S. Henry W. Tucker, and the U.S.S. Benecia. Upon his 
recent appointment, Captain Bermudes became the first Chamorro to take 
command of the U.S. Naval Ship Repair Facility on Guam, the only U.S. 
facility in the Western Pacific to provide vital repair, maintenance, 
overhaul, and shore support to naval ships, to the Government of Guam, 
and to other agencies.
  Through his distinguished military service and outstanding 
achievements, Captain Bermudes has brought recognition upon himself, 
the island, and its people. On behalf of the people of Guam, I 
congratulate and welcome home an exceptional native son.
  


                       SENATE COMMITTEE MEETINGS

  Title IV of Senate Resolution 4, agreed to by the Senate on February 
4, 1977, calls for establishment of a system for a computerized 
schedule of all meetings and hearings of Senate committees, 
subcommittees, joint committees, and committees of conference. This 
title requires all such committees to notify the Office of the Senate 
Daily Digest--designated by the Rules Committee--of the time, place, 
and purpose of the meetings, when scheduled, and any cancellations or 
changes in the meetings as they occur.
  As an additional procedure along with the computerization of this 
information, the Office of the Senate Daily Digest will prepare this 
information for printing in the Extensions of Remarks section of the 
Congressional Record on Monday and Wednesday of each week.
  Meetings scheduled for Thursday, August 18, 1994, may be found in the 
Daily Digest of today's Record.
