COMMITTEE ON ARMED SERVICES

ONE HUNDRED SEVENTH CONGRESS

October 11, 2001

Mr. Raymond A. Bell

Chief Operating Officer, Executive Director

U.S. Army Warrant Officers Association

Herndon, VA 20170-5234

Dear Mr. Bell:

I want to personally thank you for your work in helping to build support for H.R. 2586, the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2002.

With your assistance, the bill passed by the overwhelming bipartisan vote of 398 to 17. I consider this margin to be a strong endorsement of our efforts to craft legislation to rebuild our nation's military and provide the resources our service members need to win the impending campaign against terrorism.

I have appreciated working with you over the past several months, and look forward to building on our efforts as we turn our focus to the next steps in the legislative process. In the meantime, should you have any questions or further suggestions on how we may be able to improve upon this effort, please do not hesitate to contact me.

With warmest personal regards, I am

Sincerely,

/ original signed /

BOB STUMP

Chairman
