                        TRIBUTE TO BRENDAN SMITH

 Mr. THUNE. Mr. President, today I recognize Brendan Smith, an 
intern in my Washington, DC, office, for all of the hard work he has 
done for me, my staff, and the State of South Dakota over the past 
several weeks.
  Brendan is a graduate of Lyman High School in Presho, SD. Currently, 
he is attending South Dakota School of Mines and Technology where he is 
majoring in chemical engineering. He is a hard worker who has been 
dedicated to getting the most out of his internship experience.
  I extend my sincere thanks and appreciation to Brendan for all of the 
fine work he has done and wish him continued success in the years to 
come.
