                     TRIBUTE TO WILLIAM F. LUEBBERT

 Mr. SMITH of New Hampshire. Mr. President, I rise today to pay 
tribute to William F. Luebbert of Hanover, NH, for his outstanding 
service as a volunteer executive in Vladivostok, Russia.
  William worked on a volunteer mission with the International 
Executive Service Corps, a nonprofit organization which sends retired 
Americans to assist businesses and private enterprises in the 
developing countries and the new emerging democracies of Central and 
Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union.
  William assisted the Vladivostok State University of Economics with 
its computer technology. He is the retired director of academic 
computing at USMA (West Point). William is also a retired U.S. Army 
colonel.
  William, and his wife Nancy, spent a month in Russia. Their 
outstanding patriotic engagement provides active assistance for people 
in need and helps build strong ties of trust and respect between Russia 
and America. William's mission aids at ending the cycle of dependency 
on foreign assistance.
  I commend William for his dedicated service and I am proud to 
represent him in the U.S. Senate.
