This ceremony was held to review the career of Defense Secretary Aspin. The secretary was presented with the Department of the Army’s Distinguished Civilian Service Award, as well as awards from the Department of the Air Force, Department of the Navy and the Department of Transportation.

On Thursday, Deputy Defense Secretary designate William Perry was approved by the Senate by a vote of 97-0 and was sworn into office the same day. close
