  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Colonel Janet Riley. Colonel Riley retired from military 
service on January 27, 2018 after over 30 years in the U.S. Army 
Reserve.
  She is retiring from her last duty station at Carlisle Barracks, PA, 
serving as an instructor for the U.S. Army War College. She has held 
numerous leadership positions from Supply Officer, Commander of 
Battalions, Chief of Staff, Brigade Commander and many more. She 
currently serves as the State Recovery Planner for Iowa Homeland 
Security and Emergency Management in Des Moines, Iowa.
  Mr. Speaker, I am honored to recognize Colonel Riley for this 
outstanding achievement, and for providing leadership so faithfully in 
our country's military. I am proud to represent her in the United 
States Congress. I ask that my colleagues in the United States House of 
Representatives join me in congratulating Colonel Riley and in wishing 
her nothing but continued success.

                          ____________________
