                      FAREWELL, VERONICA KALTRIDER

  (Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, I am grateful to express 
my appreciation for Major Veronica Kaltrider. Veronica has been on loan 
to the office of the Second District of South Carolina from the United 
States Marine Corps for the past year serving as a military fellow.
  Major Kaltrider enlisted in the United States Marine Corps in 1997 
and received training the following year at the Marine Corps Recruit 
Depot at Parris Island, South Carolina. As the former Representative of 
this base, I know firsthand of the proficiency that Veronica has 
because of her training by the highest Marine Corps standards. 
Veronica's ability to connect with veterans has been a tremendous asset 
to our office.
  Beginning this month, Veronica Kaltrider will serve as the manpower 
and personnel officer of the Marine Corps Office of Legislative 
Affairs. I wish her and her husband, Eric, a military police officer in 
the Marine Corps, all the best in the future. Godspeed.
  In conclusion, God bless our troops, and the President, by his 
actions, must never forget September the 11th in the global war on 
terrorism. Our sympathy for the citizens of France fighting terrorism.
