                      RECOGNIZING BOBBY CHRISTINE

  (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 recognize Bobby 
Christine for being promoted to the rank of major general in U.S. Army 
National Guard.
  His career began as a student at the University of Georgia and 
Samford Law. He also attended Georgia Military College where he was 
positioned as a second lieutenant in the Corps of Engineers.
  During the 1990s, Major General Christine continued to serve in 
military affairs as a lawyer for the field. His responsibilities ranged 
from guiding commanders on rules of engagement to prosecuting and 
defending military personnel at trial.
  For his skills and leadership, Major General Christine also served as 
the senior lawyer in the Georgia National Guard, brigadier general for 
a JAG in the National Guard, and U.S. Attorney for Georgia's Southern 
and Northern Districts.
  Now, he has made history as the first Reserve component officer in 
the Army's Judge Advocate General's Corps to achieve the status of 
major general. His hard work is recognized by his family, friends, 
others, and myself, and I look forward to witnessing his future 
accomplishments.
