        RECOGNIZING COMMANDER ROB WARREN OF THE U.S. COAST GUARD

                                  _____
                                 

                         HON. FRANK A. LoBIONDO

                             of new jersey

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, June 23, 2011

  Mr. LoBIONDO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Commander Rob Warren 
of the U.S. Coast Guard for his exemplary service over the past two 
years as the Coast Guard's Liaison to the House of Representatives.
  Commander Warren, a 1992 graduate of the Coast Guard Academy, has 
personified public service throughout his operationally distinguished 
nineteen year career. Having served on three Coast Guard Cutters, 
including a tour as the Commanding Officer of TYBEE, Commander Warren 
arrived here in Washington in the summer of 2009, having just completed 
a successful assignment as the Chief of Response Operations in Sector 
San Juan, Puerto Rico. He quickly learned to navigate the rocky shoals 
of Capitol Hill and has become a trusted voice on all things pertaining 
to both the Coast Guard and the maritime domain. His passion, candor, 
and intellect are second to none and earned him a coveted seat at the 
Army War College's Senior Service School, where he will spend the next 
year studying National Security Strategy and the principles of senior 
command.
  I would like to thank him for his service to both the Congress and 
the nation and wish him and his family fair winds and following seas in 
their future endeavors.
