                        CELEBRATING DONALD LEWIS

  (Mr. CARTER of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the 
achievements of the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center, FLETC, 
chief financial officer, Donald Lewis, who is retiring after 40 years 
of Federal service.
  Mr. Lewis started his Federal career when he was just a student back 
in 1983 as an audit assistant for the Federal Junior Fellowship Program 
at Kings Bay Naval Base in Georgia. From there, he was able to move up 
into the procurement career field by taking on different positions with 
the Naval Facilities Engineering Command and the Strategic Weapons 
Facility.
  In 2004, Donald joined FLETC and worked in different positions before 
becoming the current assistant director and chief financial officer. As 
assistant director and chief financial officer, he provides strategic 
direction and executive oversight of FLETC business activities, which 
include executing and overseeing an annual budget of over $600 million.
  Mr. Speaker, I congratulate Mr. Lewis on his remarkable achievements 
and on his upcoming retirement. His years of distinguished service are 
extremely admirable.
