  Mr. SKELTON. Madam Speaker, let me take this opportunity to honor Joe 
Scallorns of California, Missouri.
  Mr. Scallorns has been awarded the Department of the Air Force Scroll 
of Appreciation for his tireless dedication and leadership on the 
Whiteman Air Force Base Community Council. The scroll is awarded for 
meritorious achievement or service to the Department of the Air Force 
by civilians not employed by the United States government. It was 
presented to Mr. Scallorns at the B-2 Twentieth Anniversary Gala on 
January 17.
  Mr. Scallorns has supported the Whiteman Air Force Base community 
throughout his tenure as president of the Whiteman Air Force Base 
Community Council and through his continued service as an active member 
of the board. He also currently serves on the commander's group of Air 
Combat Command and is a participating member of the Air Force Civic 
Leaders Group and Air Force Association.
  Joe Scallorns has been honored to serve and support Whiteman Air 
Force Base and its community. I hope Members of the House will join me 
in honoring this outstanding citizen and in wishing him the very best 
in his future endeavors.
