                   RECOGNIZING REVEREND STAN GRUNEICH

 Mr. THUNE. Mr. President, today I recognize the appointment of 
Reverend Stan Gruneich of Flandreau, SD, to the post of National 
Chaplain for the American Legion. I would like to take this opportunity 
to thank Reverend Gruneich for his years of service and congratulate 
him on his promotion to this prestigious post.
  Reverend Gruneich was choosen as the National Chaplain after years of 
serving as Department Chaplain for the American Legion Department of 
South Dakota. He has graciously provided guidance and leadership to 
America's veterans and their families throughout his tenure, and will 
now continue to do so at the national level.
  It gives me great pleasure to commemorate Reverend Stan Gruneich on 
this special occasion and to wish him continued success in the years to 
come.
