  Mr. ROGERS of Michigan. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate 
Technical Sergeant Ronald Gisel as one of this year's U.S. Air Force's 
12 Outstanding Airmen of the Year.

  Mr. Speaker, this is a huge accomplishment, and one that clearly 
shows this man's commitment to serving the United States of America. As 
the noncommissioned officer in charge of 31 ceremonial guardsmen who 
performed more than 700 Air Force and Joint Service ceremonies, 
Sergeant Gisel proves himself to be a professional of the highest 
caliber. His superior job performance is noticeable to all he comes in 
contact with. He is certainly worthy of recognition!
  A man of firm beliefs and unselfish commitment to helping others, 
Sergeant Gisel is a fine role model for the young adults in high school 
and to the two-home schooled junior high school students in which he 
mentors. His values and beliefs are reflected in his dedication to his 
work and his relationships with his family, friends, and people in the 
community.
  Indeed, Sergeant Gisel is an excellent example to all. Therefore, Mr. 
Speaker, I respectfully ask my colleagues to join me in paying tribute 
to Technical Sergeant Ronald A. Gisel for being recognized as one of 
the U.S. Air Force's 12 Outstanding Airmen of the Year.
