                      HONORING DOUGLAS M. BARRETT

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. CHARLES F. BASS

                            of new hampshire

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, July 21, 1998

  Mr. BASS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the accomplishments 
of a resident of Nashua, New Hampshire, Mr. Douglas M. Barrett, on the 
occasion of his retirement from Sanders, a Lockheed Martin Company. Mr. 
Barrett's 41 years of dedication to improving our Nation's security, 
and his devotion to his community, set a standard of commitment and 
excellence for which we should all strive.
  Since beginning his employment at Sanders Associates in 1957, Mr. 
Barrett has been an integral part of the development and fielding of 
intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance systems that have been 
critical to keeping the peace when possible and prevailing at war when 
necessary. His devotion to getting the best possible technical 
solutions into the hands of our soldiers, sailors and airmen in the 
shortest periods of time, and at the best value to the government is to 
be greatly commended.
  As the Vice President and General Manager of the Surveillance Systems 
Business Area of Sanders since 1982, Mr. Barrett has been instrumental 
to the growth and stability of the economy in and around Nashua through 
the creation of jobs. He has also played a major role in providing 
educational opportunities for the citizens of the greater Nashua area 
as a board member and past president of the Adult Learning Center.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask you to join with me in recognizing the unwavering 
commitment and total dedication of Mr. Douglas M. Barrett to his 
company, community and country.
