  Mr. CAMP. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to Lieutenant 
Colonel Pamela H. Smith-Beatty for her faithful service of 22 years to 
the United States Air Force.
  Pamela began her career in the Air Force as a Second Lieutenant in 
the Air Force Medical Service in Offutt Air Force Base, Nebraska. She 
continued to serve in various locations, including North Dakota, 
Louisiana, Texas, California, Illinois, Maryland, Korea, and Florida. 
Throughout her career in these locations, Pamela devotedly performed 
her duties primarily as a Women's Health Nurse Practitioner, but also 
as a Deputy Flight Commander and a Deputy Chief Nurse. Pamela has been 
honored with several awards, including a Space Command Field Grade 
Nurse of the Year award, a Meritorious Service Medal, a Commendation 
Medal, and an Achievement Medal. Pamela will be greatly missed by her 
co-workers, and greatly appreciated by her country.
  I am honored today to recognize Lieutenant Colonel Pamela H. Smith-
Beatty for her auspicious dedication to serving her country.
