                 CONGRATULATING BRIGADIER GENERAL HECK

  (Mr. McCARTHY of California asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. McCARTHY of California. Mr. Speaker, yesterday our friend and 
colleague from Nevada, Congressman Joe Heck, was promoted to the rank 
of brigadier general in the U.S. Army Reserve.
  As you all know, while the gentleman from Nevada has been serving in 
Congress, he has also been working as a physician and member of the 
U.S. Army Reserve. Since 1991, he has been called to duty three times, 
most recently in Iraq in 2008. His accomplishments and service to our 
country in a variety of fields are truly remarkable.
  On behalf of this House, I would like to offer Doctor, Congressman, 
General Heck our warmest and most sincere congratulations.
