  Mr. LEWIS of Kentucky. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Mr. 
Edward ``Jack'' Eubanks, a proud veteran and dedicated public servant. 
Mr. Eubanks, a resident of Elizabethtown, Kentucky, is retiring after 
43 years of service to our country.
  Mr. Eubanks served in the United States Army for 20 years and retired 
as sergeant first class. His military service included three overseas 
tours of duty, one being in Vietnam.
  Upon his retirement from the Army, Mr. Eubanks joined the Federal 
civilian workforce at Fort Knox, Kentucky, serving most recently as 
Chief of Armor Center Protocol. During his 23 years of civilian work, 
he has been the recipient of the Superior Civilian Service Award twice, 
the Gold Medallion-Noble Patron of Armor, and the Kentucky 
Distinguished Service Medal.
  It is my privilege to honor Jack Eubanks today, before the entire 
United States House of Representatives, for his service to his country. 
I wish Jack, and his wife Kathy a safe and happy retirement.
