                     FREDERICK L. RIEDEL RETIREMENT

  Ms. MIKULSKI. Madam President, I rise today to recognize Frederick L. 
Riedel of Towson, MD for his 43 years of service to the Baltimore City 
Fire Department. Mr. Riedel retired on March 12 as the second most 
senior member of his department.
  Mr. Riedel's dedication to fighting fires is unsurpassed. During his 
43 years of service, he was never called for disciplinary action, nor 
did he ever once report to work late. This impeccable record reflects 
Mr. Riedel's rare level of commitment to his work and his community. 
Mr. Riedel's dedication to a job which can be difficult and dangerous 
is truly admirable. His accomplishments and career are worthy of the 
highest praise and serve as an example for us all.
  Madam President, I salute Frederick Riedel's contributions to my home 
city of Baltimore and the State of Maryland. Through his consistent 
hard work, he has made a real difference in the lives of many residents 
in the Baltimore area. His dedicated service represents what is best in 
Maryland and our country.
