August 31, 2007 -- WASHINGTON – Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman Carl Levin, D-Mich., today made the following statement regarding the retirement of Senator John Warner:

“For three decades, John Warner has been a great Senator and a great friend. The nation will miss him following his retirement, the Senate will miss him, and I will sorely miss him.

Senator Warner has served in the finest tradition of the United States Senate – a tradition of bipartisan dedication to the national defense of our country established by such giants of the Senate as Arthur Vandenberg, Richard Russell, Henry Jackson and Barry Goldwater. The Senate and the nation, and especially the men and women of our armed forces and their families, owe him a huge debt of gratitude for his selfless service.”
