                            TRIBUTE TO STAFF

  Mr. BLUNT. I rise to acknowledge Maj. Mark Shirley, serving as a 
Defense legislative fellow, and Robert Temple, an intern in my office. 
We have certainly benefited from both of them, particularly Major 
Shirley. He has been with our office for 1 year. This has been the 
first year I have been on both the Armed Services Committee and the 
Defense Appropriations Committee. Major Shirley's help in both of those 
cases has been exceptional. I am pleased we have had this benefit.
