            CONGRATULATING MAJOR GENERAL PATRICK D. SARGENT

  (Mr. DUNN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DUNN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Panama City, 
Florida, native Major General Patrick D. Sargent for assuming command 
of the U.S. Army Health Readiness Center of Excellence at Fort Sam 
Houston.
  I had the pleasure of meeting General Sargent last year in 
Washington. He has had a decorated Army career, serving our country for 
more than three decades.
  He grew up in Bay County and attended Florida State University before 
joining the Army in 1985.
  General Sargent is board certified in healthcare administration, and 
he is a medevac pilot. He has been a leader in providing healthcare to 
our troops for many years.
  He was in charge of all medical care in Iraq as the Commander of the 
Medical Task Force Iraq. In his own words, he has worked to bring 
humanity to the battlefield, and I believe he will brilliantly continue 
that work in his new post.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in congratulating Major General Patrick 
Sargent on his new posting.
