                       Tuesday, February 23, 1999

  Mr. HOYER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the Naval Surface 
Warfare Center, Indian Head Division, for their large contribution to 
the Combined Federal Campaign. In particular, I want to thank Captain 
John Walsh, Commander Michael Donch and Chris Adams for their 
leadership, enthusiasm, dedication and ingenuity. the Naval Surface 
Warfare Center, Indian Head Division, raised over $116,000, a 31-
percent increase over last year. They were also able to motivate 1,120 
people to participate in the campaign.
  Your contribution to enriching the Navy's culture of giving by 
planning and implementing a highly successful plan of action is most 
appreciated. Individuals will have better health, quality of life, 
education or a safety net because you took the time to care. Thousands 
will benefit due to your hard work. Your efforts are a positive 
reflection on yourself, the Navy and the Department of Defense. You 
demonstrate the military not only serves and protects but also is a 
positive force in the community, the Nation and the world. 
Congratulations on your fine success.
