                   HONORING DAVID KENT FRUECHTENICHT

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. SAM GRAVES

                              of Missouri

                    in the house of representatives

                     Wednesday, September 30, 2020

  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Madam Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
David Kent Fruechtenicht. David is a very special husband, father, and 
leader who is proudly retiring from a career of service to this 
country.
  David Fruechtenicht has dedicated over 41 years to protect this 
nation. After joining the Air Force in 1980, David quickly realized 
that he enjoyed serving his country, as he says he just kept 
reenlisting and next thing he knew 20 years had flown by. After leaving 
active duty, David used his expertise with Electronic Intelligence to 
move over into DOD defense contract work but still found his way back 
to the Air Force by April of 2007. Whether it be active duty, 
consultant, or Air Force Civilian, David has continuously found a way 
to serve his nation. As David says he wouldn't change anything that he 
has done and ultimately that shows the true love and pride that David 
has for this country and I wish him well in retirement.
  Madam Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in recognizing David 
Fruechtenicht on his retirement and for his years serving our nation. l 
am honored to represent him in the United States Congress.
