June 1999 to February 2005, and since 

January 2010, as the third Federal CoChair. I thank the Indian Health Service 

(IHS) and ANTHC for executing a 

unique personnel assignment of 

detailing me from the IHS to ANTHC 

and then to the Commission in the early 

years of the agency. I have had the 

pleasure of working with most, but not

essential in guiding the agency in 

deploying critical Federal resources to 

the highest needs found in rural Alaska.

want to publically acknowledge and 

thank all of the former and current 

Commissioners.
