                       Tuesday, September 6, 2016

  Mrs. COMSTOCK. Mr. Speaker, I am honored to recognize the tremendous 
work of my constituent Mr. Seth Leventhal of Sterling, Virginia. Mr. 
Leventhal has served his nation proudly at the Department of the Navy 
for over 35 years, and for this I wish to acknowledge his service.
  Following the completion of his Master's Degree in Public 
Administration from Syracuse University, Mr. Leventhal began his 
civilian service to the Department of the Navy in August 1982. For the 
next 22 years, Mr. Leventhal worked with the Naval Seas Systems Command 
(NAVSEA) before taking the position of Budget Policy Officer at the 
Commander, Naval Installations Command (CNIC) in 2004.
  He was furthermore an educator who taught numerous classes for the 
Navy on financial management and policy. His expertise and willingness 
to mentor others without a doubt positively impacted the lives of 
countless coworkers. More notably still, Mr. Leventhal is a recognized 
expert in the financial policy arena, speaking at numerous forums and 
publishing a weekly naval newsletter on this issue.
  Mr. Leventhal has been an integral member of the Department of the 
Navy throughout his career, eventually being recognized in 2007 with 
the Assistant Secretary of the Navy award for Individual Achievement in 
Human Capital for his role in establishing a command-wide leadership 
training program at CNIC. This is a man who deserves all our thanks and 
gratitude for all that he has done for this great nation.
  Mr. Speaker, I now ask that my colleagues join me in thanking Mr. 
Seth Leventhal for the outstanding services he provided to the United 
States throughout his 35 year long career at the Department of the 
Navy. I wish him all the best in his future endeavors.
