                THANKING THE SENATOR FROM SOUTH CAROLINA

  Mr. McCAIN. Mr. President, first of all, I would like to extend my 
deep appreciation to the President pro tempore, the Senator from South 
Carolina, for coming in earlier than the usual hour this morning. I am 
grateful to him. And I am also very pleased to have the opportunity to 
be working with the Senator from South Carolina as we move forward on 
completion of the very important Strom Thurmond defense authorization 
bill. I am eternally grateful to him for the many kindnesses he has 
extended to me, now for more years than he and I would like to recount.
