         70TH ANNIVERSARY OF MARINE CORPS LOGISTICS BASE ALBANY

 Mr. OSSOFF. Mr. President, today let the Senate recognize the 
70th anniversary of the Marine Corps Logistics Base in Albany, GA.
  For 70 years, Marines Corps Logistics Base Albany has provided 
critical support to its tenants, including the Marine Corps Logistics 
Command and Marine Depot Maintenance Command/Production Plant Albany.
  Marine Corps Logistics Base Albany and its outstanding personnel 
provide the U.S. Marine Corps with advanced logistical capabilities 
vital to U.S. national security.
  Under the leadership of Col. Michael J. Fitzgerald, Mr. Leonard 
Housey, and Sgt. Maj. Auburne I. Edwards II, the base has been 
recognized for its leadership in energy security. Last year, the 
Secretary of the Navy awarded the Energy Excellence Award to Marine 
Corps Logistics Base Albany for its commitment to energy security 
planning, cybersecurity, and energy reduction.
  On behalf of the State of Georgia and the U.S. Senate, I express our 
heartfelt gratitude to each servicemember and civilian marine who has 
served at Marine Corps Logistics Base Albany.
