                                 ______


                          HON. JAMES A. LEACH

                                of iowa

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, November 29, 1994

  Mr. LEACH. Mr. Speaker, I rise to invite my colleagues' attention to 
the accomplishments of a remarkable young man, Sgt. John T. Winborn, 
U.S. Army.
  On December 16, 1994, John will graduate at the top of his class from 
the Army's Special Forces training at Fort Bragg, NC. The rigorous 
training for which this elite unit is famous produces strong, 
confident, and resourceful leaders and John will be an outstanding 
addition to its ranks.
  John is the son of two of my oldest friends, Ed and Sandy Winborn, 
and he inherited his vocation of military service from his father, a 
distinguished 1964 graduate of West Point and Vietnam veteran. It has 
been my pleasure to watch John grow to a mature and courageous manhood.
  In 1992, John married Lisa Marchman Winborn. They have a bright 
future as an Army family before them. At a time when many are 
questioning America's fortitude, I am proud to be able to point to John 
as an example of the sort of individual each generation has counted on 
to step forward in defense of freedom. Our future security is assured 
by a military led by men and women like John Winborn.
