                    LIEUTENANT COLONEL DAVID MEUNIER

 Mr. HAGEL. Mr. President, I rise to honor David Russell 
Meunier of Bellevue, NE.
  David Russell Meunier was born in Peshtigo, WI, on December 13, 1940, 
and passed away on November 22, 2006, in Rochester, MN. Lieutenant 
Colonel Meunier served his country as an officer in the Strategic Air 
Command of the U.S. Air Force. He was a highly decorated officer and 
veteran of the Vietnam war. At Offutt Air Force Base in Bellevue, 
Lieutenant Colonel Meunier served as a battle staff intelligence chief. 
He retired from the Air Force on January 23, 1989.
  Lieutenant Colonel Meunier leaves behind his wife Constance Bennet 
Muenier; sisters Patricia Jeske, Diane Hazlewood, and her husband 
Thomas; brothers, Gary and his wife Sally, and Paul and his wife 
Patricia. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of them at this 
difficult time. America is proud of Lieutenant Colonel Meunier and 
mourns his loss.
  For his service, bravery, and commitment to our country, I ask my 
colleagues to join me and all Americans in honoring LTC David Russell 
Meunier.
