                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, July 23, 2025

  Mr. FALLON. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize Lieutenant Colonel Kyle 
Frazer's exemplary and distinguished record of service to our Nation. A 
native of Minneapolis, Minnesota, Kyle was commissioned as an Infantry 
Officer in 2008 through the University of Utah. He earned his master's 
degree in Legislative Affairs from George Washington University in 
2023.
  Kyle was an honor graduate from the Army's Ranger School, Basic 
Officer Leader's Course, and Air Assault schools. After completing 
Airborne school and Master Jumpmaster school with distinction, Kyle 
spent most of his 17-year career at the tactical level specializing in 
combined arms maneuvers and large-scale combat operations. He deployed 
three times in support of Operations Iraqi Freedom, Enduring Freedom, 
and Inherent Resolve. Kyle has served as a platoon leader and company 
commander, senior observer controller, Deputy Chief of Operations of 
Combined Joint Task Force-Operation Inherent Resolve, battalion and 
brigade operations officer, and as a congressional staffer, where he 
was my National Security and Defense Fellow.
  Kyle currently serves as a Legislative Liaison for the Army in the 
House of Representatives. Kyle has been the face of the Army for 435 
members of the House of Representatives, with direct influence over 13 
states covering 88 Members of Congress. Kyle built, promoted, and 
facilitated lines of communication between Congress and the Army that 
were instrumental in maintaining relationships between the executive 
and legislative branches. Through his ability to clearly define the 
Army's message and help navigate the needs of Congress to provide 
essential oversight requirements, Kyle has made a lasting impact on our 
Nation's ability to respond to global threats, modernize the Army, and 
maintain the Army's readiness at the highest level.
  I want to thank Kyle for his dedication and steadfast commitment to 
our country. In August, he will be taking over the ROTC program at his 
alma mater, the University of Utah, where I know he will continue to 
lead with excellence and honor. I want to extend my deepest gratitude 
to Kyle, his wife, Annie, and their two children, Eleanor and Theodore, 
for their sacrifices and contributions to the strength and security of 
our great Nation. I congratulate Kyle, and I wish him the very best.
