                         ADDITIONAL STATEMENTS

                                 ______
                                 

              HONORING THE ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF BEN WOODMAN

 Mr. BUNNING. Mr. President, I pay tribute to and congratulate 
Ben Woodman of Berea, KY on being awarded a Boren Undergraduate 
Scholarship from the David L. Boren National Security Education 
Program, NSEP.
  Mr. Woodman was one of 181 applicants nationwide to receive one of 
these scholarships. NSEP is administered within the National Defense 
University in the Department of Defense. It funds outstanding U.S. 
students to study critical languages and world regions in exchange for 
a commitment to seek employment with the Federal Government in the 
arena of national security.
  Mr. Woodman has been studying Arabic and will spend the year in 
Egypt. He attends the University of Kentucky and is majoring in 
international economics and Arabic.
  The citizens of Madison County should be proud to have a man like Ben 
Woodman in their community. His example of dedication and hard work 
should be an inspiration to the entire Commonwealth. He has my most 
sincere admiration for this work and I look forward to his continued 
service to the United States.
