                      Thursday, September 20, 2018

  Mr. PERRY. Mr. Speaker, today I offer my heartfelt congratulations to 
Chad M. Shifflet, a resident of Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, on his 
retirement upon 24 years of selfless service to the United States of 
America.
  Master Sergeant Shifflet currently serves as the Non-Commissioned 
Officer in Charge of Operations and Training at the 193rd Special 
Operations Security Squadron. He entered the United States Air Force in 
1994, and served in numerous assignments and deployments over his 
distinguished career.
  In November 1994, Master Sergeant Shifflet was assigned to the 377th 
Security Forces Squadron at Kirtland Air Force Base from November 1994 
to 1998. Following his exemplary commitment to service, he joined the 
Department of Corrections in July 1998, and went on to enlist in the 
Pennsylvania Air National Guard (PaANG) in August 1999. Master Sergeant 
Shifflet was selected to serve on full-time military duty in the 
PaANG's Active Guard & Reserve force in January 2000.
  MSgt Shifflet's numerous commendations and awards--which include the 
Air Force Meritorious Service Medal, Commendation Medal, Achievement 
Medal with two oak leaf clusters, to name a few--are a testament to his 
steadfast courage, personal integrity, unwavering work ethic, and 
impeccable character. His enduring legacy of service to our Nation is 
exceptional and sets the standard for all to follow.
  On behalf of Pennsylvania's Fourth Congressional District, I commend 
and congratulate my fellow Brother-in-Arms, Master Sergeant Chad M. 
Shifflet, upon his retirement and for his tireless and selfless service 
to the United States of America.
