    TRIBUTE TO MAJOR GENERAL BRUCE KENYON SCOTT, UNITED STATES ARMY

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. FLOYD SPENCE

                           of south carolina

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, October 5, 1999

  Mr. SPENCE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Major General 
Bruce Kenyon Scott, for his outstanding service to our Nation. This 
month, General Scott will depart The Pentagon to assume the position of 
Commanding General of the United States Army Security Assistance 
Command, in Alexandria, Virginia.
  Since August 1997, General Scott has served as the Chief of 
Legislative Liaison for the United States Army. In this role, he has 
proven himself to be a valued advisor to the Secretary of the Army, the 
Chief of Staff of the Army, as well as many Members of Congress and 
staff. Drawing upon his in-depth knowledge of policy and program issues 
that relate to the Army, General Scott has been able to ensure that the 
Army message has been delivered in a very effective manner. General 
Scott has also been instrumental in resolving countless personnel, 
operational, and support matters involving the Army, during deployments 
to more than 81 countries around the world.
  Throughout his 27 years of dedicated service, General Scott has set a 
high standard. He clearly symbolizes the Army ethos, ``Duty, Honor, 
Country.'' General Scott has served with distinction in the position of 
Chief of Army Legislative Liaison, and he is to be commended on his 
outstanding work.
  I am certain that General Scott will continue to excel in the 
position of Commanding General of the United States Army Security 
Assistance Command. He and his lovely wife, Mary, are wished much 
success in this new assignment.
