                              THE CHAPLAIN

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, on Saturday on public radio, there was a 
very nice piece on our Chaplain. It was a long interview; it must have 
taken 10 or 15 minutes. The woman doing the interview on public radio 
came to his office here. She was at various places with him. It was a 
very good piece historically about the history of the Chaplain in the 
Senate, and it spoke very well of our Chaplain--the first African 
American to become an admiral in the Navy, our first African-American 
Chaplain. He is a person who is very accomplished.
  I appreciate the work he does for each of us individually and the 
work he does with various groups. He has a number of study groups here 
that he works with on a weekly basis. In the Senate, we are very proud 
of our Senate Chaplain, ADM Dr. Barry Black.
