                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, July 20, 1998

  Mr. BRYANT. Mr. Speaker, it is always an honor to recognize 
outstanding citizens out of my own 7th district of Tennessee. Today, it 
is indeed an honor and a privilege for me to recognize one such 
citizen.
  Charles B. Allison was born on December 12, 1942, in Austinville, 
Virginia. He graduated with an accounting degree from Ben Franklin 
University in Washington, D.C. while being employed by the Bureau in a 
clerical capacity, having entered on duty June 19, 1961. Chuck's first 
duty assignment as a Special Agent was in 1968 in Louisville, Kentucky, 
where he also served several months in the Richmond Resident Agency.
  He thereafter was transferred to Newark, New Jersey, in 1969 and 
served in the Newark Division until June of 1977. He was then 
transferred to the Memphis, TN, FBI Office where he is currently 
serving as a Supervisory Special Agent of the Organized Crime and Drug 
Squad. Mr. Allison is retiring on July 31, 1998 after 37 years of 
dedicated service to the FBI.
  Mr. Allison and his wife, Janet, have two children, Jill and Greg. 
Jill, a registered nurse, is married to Dr. Camp Newton and they are 
both employed at Baxter County Regional Hospital in Mountain Home, 
Arkansas. Greg is a graduate of the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, 
and is currently employed by the C.H. Robinson Company in Nashville, 
TN.
  I would like to thank the Chair for this time to recognize this 
exceptional American citizen.
