                            of pennsylvania

                    in the house of representatives

                      Tuesday, September 26, 2023

  Mr. PERRY. Mr. Speaker, I'm honored to recognize Ronald E. Myers, 
upon the auspicious occasion of his retirement on October 1, 2023 after 
32 years of service as Director of Maintenance for the Graham Capitol 
Corporation.
  Mr. Myers enlisted in the Army on October 31, 1978, after graduating 
high school in Lower Dauphin. He completed basic training at Fort 
Jackson, South Carolina, and became qualified as a helicopter mechanic 
at Fort Rucker, Alabama. Then-Sergeant Myers specialized in the UH-I/
Iroquois (``Huey'') aircraft (his favorite), the critical aircraft for 
troop and logistics transport, and direct combat gun support 
capabilities. Sergeant Myers' performance and duty as a mechanic of 
these premier and complex aircraft was critical to the Army mission.
  After his service in the active component Army, Sergeant Myers 
honorably served in the Pennsylvania National Guard, wherein he earned 
the rank of Staff Sergeant (E-6) and continued to serve our Nation for 
22 years. In May 1991, after his military retirement, he transitioned 
to the civilian/private sector, wherein he became Director of 
Maintenance for the Graham Capital Corporation flight department, now 
culminating his duties after 32 years on October 1, 2023.
  Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the 10th Congressional District of 
Pennsylvania, I'm privileged to commend former Staff Sergeant Ronald E. 
Myers for his tireless and selfless service to our communities, 
Commonwealth, and Nation. I wish him Godspeed, and great health, 
prosperity, and happiness in his future adventures.
