RECOGNIZING THE SERVICE OF MAJOR JACOB D. McELWEE
______
HON. SHARICE DAVIDS
of kansas
in the house of representatives
Tuesday, February 2, 2021
Ms. DAVIDS of Kansas. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Major Jacob D. McElwee for his service in the Kansas Army National Guard and his recent role in sending out troops to Topeka and Washington, D.C. this month to provide additional security support for the inauguration.
A resident of the Third District in Shawnee, Major McElwee became a commissioned Judge Advocate General Corps Officer in the Kansas Army National Guard in September 2010. During his service as a Judge Advocate General Corps Officer, Major McElwee deployed to Kosovo in 2014 through 2015 and then again to Kuwait and Iraq in 2018 through 2019.
Major McElwee is currently the legal advisor to the Adjutant General Major General David Weishaar. As a fulltime Kansas Army National Guard Judge Advocate General, Major McElwee handles a non-stop flow of requests and questions, while ensuring the highest quality work product possible. He dropped everything to travel to Salina with another officer and two paralegals to help with the rolling out of troops to protect our state and national capitols.
One of the most rewarding parts of representing the Third District is hearing about the exemplary service and accomplishments of my constituents. Major McElwee is certainly no exception and I commend him for his dedication to our state and country.
