  Ms. STEFANIK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize a lifetime of 
service of Mr. Henry Cummings. Mr. Cummings is a lifelong civil servant 
and U.S. Army veteran who has spent 40 years of his life dedicated to 
protecting our country's freedom.
  Mr. Cummings' military journey began with his training at Fort Dix, 
where he was assigned to the Joint Military Assistance Command in 
Saigon. He completed two tours in Korea and one in Germany and was 
promoted from personnel clerk to personnel supervisor.
  Following his military career, Mr. Cummings remained at Fort Dix and 
transitioned into Human Resources. In recognition of his combined 40 
years of selfless service and dedication to his country, he received 
multiple letters of commendation and honors, including but not limited 
to, the Bronze Star Medal, the Meritorious Service Medal, the Vietnam 
Service Medal, the Korea Defense Service Medal, and the Joint Service 
Commendation Medal.
  Throughout both his military and civilian careers, Mr. Cummings 
dedicated himself to protecting our country's interests at home and 
abroad. On behalf of New York's 21st District, I am honored to 
recognize Henry Cummings' extraordinary life and thank him for his 40 
years of service.
