President. it is with deep sorrow that I come to speak on the floor of the Senate today. The father of the United States Air Force space and missile program. General Bernard Adolph Schriever. died today of natural causes. He is survived by his wife. his three children. and his two stepchildren. I offer them my deepest condolences and prayers as they go through this difficult time. General Schriever was a great American. Born in Bremen. Germany in 1910. Schrievers family moved to America 7 years later. where he became a naturalized citizen in 1923. Schriever would give 33 years of distinguished military service to his new home. During his exceptional career in the Air Force.
