  Ms. SPANBERGER. Mr. Speaker, I rise to congratulate Major David 
Charles Hoffman for 39 years of dedicated service to our country.
  Major Hoffman started his career with the U.S. Army after graduating 
from Cleveland Marshall College of Law in 1985, when he received his 
commission as a Judge Advocate in the U.S. Army. His Meritorious 
Service Medal, Army Commendation Medal, and Army Achievement Medal are 
a testament to his exceptional achievements and the magnitude of his 
contributions through his service.
  Major Hoffman's commitment to learning was instrumental in his 
success. In 1988, he graduated from the U.S. Army's Command and General 
Staff College. That same year, he graduated from the Army Logistics 
Management College, where he was named as a distinguished graduate of 
the Management of Defense Acquisitions Course.
  On October 2, 1998, Major Hoffman joined the U.S. Army Reserves, and 
on that same date, he joined the U.S. Department of Justice as an 
attorney with the Civil Division, Commercial Litigation Branch. While 
there, he continued to serve the people of Virginia. Since 2005, he has 
served as the Deputy General Counsel for Audit Policy and Contract 
Litigation in the Office of General Counsel for the Defense Contract 
Audit Agency at Fort Belvoir, Virginia. In recognition of his esteemed 
service on behalf of the American people, the Defense Contract Audit 
Agency bestowed Major Hoffman with the Civilian Meritorious Service 
Award.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in celebrating and 
thanking Major David Charles Hoffman for 39 years of service to our 
country and in wishing him the best as he retires to spend time with 
his wife of 43 years, Cheryl, and their two children, Kristin and 
Jonathan.
