On the recordMay 21, 2003
I want to add my commendations to the gentleman from New Jersey (Mr. Saxton), one of the absolute finest members of this great Committee on Armed Services and a guy who cares a lot about the fighting forces of the United States and also cares a lot about countries who stand with us in times of difficulty; and I think his amendment is right on point.

I think it is an appropriate one as I add my commendation to the gentleman and I strongly support this amendment.
