                      Thursday, September 29, 1994

  Mr. SKELTON. Mr. Speaker, today I wish to recognize Command Sgt. Maj. 
(retired) James Justin Heinzler for serving over 42 years in the 
Missouri National Army Guard. He served from April 22, 1952, to 
September 11, 1994.
  Command Sergeant Major Heinzler's most recent service with the 
Missouri Army National Guard was with the 1st Battalion, 128th Field 
Artillery. He served in this position for his last 16 years. Throughout 
his career, he has strongly committed himself to all that is required. 
He has gone beyond to provide guidance and support for his fellow 
soldiers.
  He has received numerous military awards throughout his career. The 
awards are the Army Service Ribbon, the National Defense Service Medal, 
the Army Reserve Components Achievement Medal with silver oak leaf 
cluster, the Armed Forces Reserve Medal with three 10-year devices, and 
the Army Commemoration Medal. He is submitted for the Meritorious 
Service Medal.
  Command Sergeant Major Heinzler has not only provided faithful and 
dedicated service to the Missouri National Guard, but to his country as 
well. I urge my colleagues to join me in congratulating him on his 
service.
