  Mr. PERRY. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize Master Sergeant (MSgt) 
David ``Lucky'' Luciano on the auspicious occasion of his retirement 
upon nearly 30 years of service to our Nation in the Pennsylvania Air 
National Guard.
  MSgt Luciano first enlisted in the Air National Guard with the 201st 
RED HORSE Squadron in October 1997. He attended Basic Training at 
Lackland AFB, Texas, and became an Engineering Assistant after 
completing Technical Training at Ft. Leonard Wood, Missouri. Over the 
course of his nearly 30 years in service, MSgt Luciano ultimately 
earned promotion to the rank of Master Sergeant and became the Non-
Commissioned Officer in Charge of the Pennsylvania Air National Guard 
Engineering Section.

  Mr. Speaker, I am honored and privileged to recognize Master Sergeant 
David ``Lucky'' Luciano on his retirement upon nearly 30 years of 
uniformed service to our Nation. His tireless service and dedication to 
his fellow Airmen, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and the United 
States of America set the standard by which all should be judged.
