                TRIBUTE TO MAJOR GENERAL PAUL J. GLAZAR

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. JIM SAXTON

                             of new jersey

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, April 11, 2002

  Mr. SAXTON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to add to the many phrases of 
praise already accorded our departing New Jersey State National Guard 
Adjutant General, Major Paul J. Glazar. General Glazar departs this 
post after eight years of superb service. He has set the mark high for 
all others who follow in his footsteps.
  General Glazar assumed the duties as The State Adjutant General for 
the New Jersey Army National Guard on February 24, 1994. As the 
Adjutant General he was responsible for the expansion of the Guard's 
command and control high technology training centers. His foresight in 
standing up these training centers for the education of staffs enabled 
the New Jersey National Guard to act as the focal point for command and 
control services on September 11, 2001. Fort Dix's ability to act in 
this key function can be traced back to outstanding leadership of 
General Glazar. Additionally, General Glazar demonstrated outstanding 
leadership in modernizing and expanding important Veteran projects for 
the state to include the Brigadier General William C. Doyle Veterans 
Cemetery and the New Jersey Veterans Memorial Home in Menlo Park.
  Thankfully, we will not be losing General Glazar's leadership, since 
he will remain inside the New Jersey National Guard structure.
  It is with tremendous pride and honor that I pay tribute to a great 
General who served New Jersey so honorably.
