  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, on the occasion of the retirement of 
Lieutenant Colonel Robert D. White, we hereby acknowledge his exemplary 
military career of service and honor in the United States Air Force. 
Colonel White began his Air Force career as an officer and instructor 
pilot with the 37th Flying Training Squadron, Columbus AFB, Mississippi 
in September 1992 and proceeded into various other positions of 
leadership, including Chief of Disclosure and Release Division 
Headquarters, National Geospatial Intelligence Agency in Virginia, 
which provides geospatial intelligence in support of national security. 
Colonel White also served as Chief of Flight Safety for the Air 
National Guard, Andrews Air Force Base. And as a command pilot, he 
logged more than 4,500 hours in the air and served overseas. For his 
outstanding service and leadership in flight safety, Colonel White was

singularly distinctive accomplishments reflect great credit upon 
himself and the United States Air Force. We thank Colonel White for his 
service to our country and congratulate him on the successful 
completion of his duty as a United States Air Force officer.
