  Mr. EHRLICH. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
congratulate Mr. Marvin R. Hohenstein on his retirement from the U.S. 
Army Edgewood Chemical Biological Center located in Edgewood, Maryland 
after 32 years of dedicated service to our country.
  During his tenure with the Federal Civil Service, Mr. Hohenstein was 
recognized as the resident expert in the Army Acquisition Process. He 
is to be commended for his exceptional service and significant 
achievements in the chemical and biological defense development and 
production area. His pattern of career excellence has contributed to 
accomplishments that significantly enhanced the ability of our armed 
forces on the battlefield.
  Mr. Hohenstein's personnel initiative and leadership qualities, as 
well as his work ethic, have done much to enhance employee morale and 
to develop our future leaders.
  Mr. Hohenstein deserves the thanks and praise of this grateful Nation 
he has faithfully served for so long. I know the Members of the House 
will join me in wishing him all the best in the years ahead.
