                            HON. TOM LATHAM

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, June 2, 2011

  Mr. LATHAM. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Dr. Kendall Reed, 
dean of Des Moines University's college of osteopathic medicine, for 
receiving the Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve's State 
Chairman Award.
  The Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve's State Chairman Award 
is presented to employers who have extraordinarily exceeded legal 
requirements for providing support to service members in the Guard and 
Reserve. Dr. Reed received the reward for the outstanding care and 
support of employee Joe Case, a staff sergeant with the U.S. Army 
Reserve.
  Mr. Speaker, I am honored to congratulate Dr. Reed and I know that my 
colleagues join me in commending him for his sincere dedication to our 
troops' well-being and wish him continued success in the future.
