  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I respectfully ask the 
attention of the House today to pay recognition to LTC Garry McClendon. 
Lieutenant Colonel McClendon has served our Nation in the Army for 25 
years and as commanding officer for the Anniston Defense Munitions 
Center and Holston Army Ammunition Plant since June 2006.
  Mr. McClendon's distinguished career began in 1983 as an Ammunition 
Stock Control and Accounting Specialist. Subsequent assignments with 
the Army included tours of duty in Southwest Asia, Fort Bragg, NC, 
Germany, Fort Lee, Virginia, and Camp Able Sentry in Macedonia.
  On behalf of us all, I would like to thank Lieutenant Colonel 
McClendon for his 25 years of service to the United States, and wish 
him all the best in his next endeavors.

                          ____________________
