I think the most recent tribute by each of the managers to each other is yet another illustration of the kind of bipartisanship that is so routinely achieved in the Armed Services Committee. Thanks for the extraordinary leadership and effort of these two genuine patriots. I admire the work they do. They set a standard for the rest of us. I admire, especially, the manner with which they have managed this legislation. This has been one of the toughest jobs we have had in a long time. They have done it admirably. We owe them a debt of gratitude, not only for the work done but for the manner with which they have done it. I congratulate them both.
