                          Wednesday, January 10, 2018

      Mr. GOWDY. Mr. Speaker, I include in the Record the following
    Proclamation in honor of a friend and an exceptional Special Agent-in-
    Charge at the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. I
    want to recognize the career of Special Agent-in-Charge CJ Hyman, who
    retired in December after more than 30 years of distinguished service
    at the ATF.
       Whereas, Special Agent-in-Charge Hyman began his career with the ATF
    in 1987, as a Special Agent in Charlotte, North Carolina. There Special
    Agent Hyman played an integral role in the forming of the Charlotte
    Violent Crime Task Force, in which he investigated and prosecuted
    narcotics and firearms trafficking as well as robberies, kidnappings,
    and homicides. Special Agent Hyman would be selected to lead the task
    force for five years, during which time he supervised and led the
    investigation of Eric Rudolph after he bombed an abortion clinic in
    Birmingham, Alabama, in 1998.
       Whereas, over the course of 30 plus years, Special Agent-in-Charge
    Hyman served in numerous other leadership positions including as the
    Resident Agent-in-Charge in the Greenville, South Carolina Field Office
    for ten years and as the Special Agent-in-Charge of the Charlotte Field
    Division, encompassing both North and South Carolina. In each position
    that Special Agent-in-Charge Hyman has held throughout his career, he
    has provided outstanding leadership and integrity in his service to the
    Carolinas.
       Whereas, 31 December 2017, Special Agent-in-Charge Hyman officially
    retired from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives,
    having faithfully served this great nation for more than 30 years. Be
    it
       Resolved, That I, Trey Gowdy, do congratulate Special Agent-in-
    Charge CJ Hyman, his wife Leslie, their two children, Josh and Casey
    for their unwavering commitment and devotion to service of our great
    nation and thank them for their unwavering loyalty, dedication and
    contributions to the Carolinas and the Fourth Congressional District of
    South Carolina.
