                   COMMENDATION FOR COL. JAY McNULTY

                                 ______


                      HON. G.V. (SONNY) MONTGOMERY

                             of mississippi

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, July 31, 1995
  Mr. MONTGOMERY. Mr. Speaker, August 31 will mark the end of a very 
distinguished

career in the U.S. Army with the official retirement of Col. Jay 
McNulty. It also will mean the House of Representatives will lose the 
services of an individual who is the epitome of professionalism.
  For slightly over 28 years, Jay has served in his Nation's uniform 
with great distinction. He served two tours of duty in Vietnam, first 
with the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment (Blackhorse) and then the 1st 
Squadron of the 1st Regiment of Dragoons (Blackhawk). As a former 
armored officer myself in World War II and during Korea, I feel a 
special kindredship with Jay because of our similar military duty.
  Since 1993, Colonel McNulty has served as Chief of Army Liaison to 
the U.S. House of Representatives. I am sure my colleagues will join me 
in commending Jay for the many times he has been of help to them and 
their constituents. He has served the Army well in this position.
  On a more personal note, I appreciate the excellent job Jay did in 
planning and making arrangements for our trip to observe the 50th 
anniversary of D-day in England and Normandy last year. I believe we 
had the largest congressional delegation to ever attend a single event, 
not to mention the many other delegations from other countries. The 
trip was a logistical nightmare, but thanks to Colonel McNulty and his 
dedicated staff it was one of the smoothest trips I have been on.
  Jay, we will miss you and certainly wish you well in the future as 
you take on new challenges. We thank you for your service to the House 
and the Nation. You truly have been a credit to the uniform you wear.
