  CONFIRMATION OF RUSSELL JOHN QUALLIOTINE, OF NEW YORK, TO BE UNITED 
          STATES MARSHAL FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK

  Mr. MOYNIHAN. Mr. President, I rise to express great appreciation for 
the confirmation of Russell John Qualliotine to be United States 
Marshal for the Southern District of New York. Hailing from Nesconset, 
New York, he served more than a quarter century with the New York City 
Police Department, retiring this past January. As an Officer of the 
NYPD, he held the position of Detective First Grade in the elite 
Personal Security Section of the Intelligence Division. The NYPD has 
given him four outstanding achievement awards, three awards for 
excellent police work, and one for meritorious service. From 1969 to 
1972, he also served in the United States Army and earned an Army 
Commendation Medal.
  In his roles as police detective and soldier, Mr Qualliotine has 
displayed exemplary dedication, character, and professionalism. He is 
superbly qualified, and I am confident he will make an excellent United 
States Marshal.
