                   TRIBUTE TO COL. C. FRANK FOGLEMAN

                                 ______


                          HON. MARK ADAM FOLEY

                               of florida

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 30, 1996

  Mr. FOLEY. Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor and recognize the retirement 
of one of Palm Beach County's most prominent and respected law 
enforcement officers, Col. C. Frank Fogleman of the Palm Beach County 
sheriff's office.
  Col. Fogleman began his law enforcement career in 1962 as a patrolman 
with the Belle Glade police department. He earned the rank of detective 
in 1965 and joined the Palm Beach County sheriff's office as a 
detective in 1967.
  With hard work and a professional demeanor, Frank rose through the 
ranks of the sheriff's office and served as a lieutenant in charge of 
the Detective Bureau and Vice Intelligence Unit, as a captain 
responsible for the Belle Glade substation, and in 1986 became a major 
and director of the Criminal Investigations Division.
  And, since 1989, Frank has served the citizens of Palm Beach County 
as colonel, overseeing nearly 1,000 employees in the uniform division. 
This duty has required him to directly manage the road patrol division 
and smooth operation of three substations, along with the airport, 
marine, mounted, K-9, and aviation divisions.
  Frank's long service with the sheriff's office is a testament to his 
devotion to public service, inner drive for excellence and dedication 
to the basics tenets of honorable law enforcement. After 34 years of 
procedures, apprehensions, reviews, arrests, and budgets, Frank 
certainly deserves a chance to go fishing.
  Mr. Speaker, I wish to thank Col. C. Frank Fogleman for his 34 years 
of service to the people of Palm Beach County, and wish Frank and 
Dottie many enjoyable and healthy years to come.
