                       TRIBUTE TO KENNETH KUEHNL

 Mr. JOHNSON. Mr. President, today I wish to recognize Kenneth 
Kuehnl who earlier this month left the position of Wisconsin State 
adjutant and chief operating officer of the Disabled American Veterans, 
DAV, after 11 years. As Ken steps down from his leadership role with 
the Wisconsin DAV, I want to acknowledge Ken's service to Wisconsin and 
our Nation.
  Ken is a Vietnam war veteran who began his U.S. military service in 
April 1971. He is a longtime member of the DAV Kenosha Chapter 20 in 
Wisconsin, with 34 years as a DAV member. Before becoming the Wisconsin 
DAV State adjutant and chief operating officer in 2005, Ken served as 
the Wisconsin department commander from 1996 to 1997.
  I hope all of my colleagues will join me in offering our 
congratulations to Ken Kuehnl and his wife, Lynn. Ken has dedicated his 
time, talents, and energy to serving the finest among us, our Nation's 
veterans. I thank Ken for his service and wish him continued success in 
the future.
