  Madam Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of 
the men and women who serve in the Occoquan-Woodbridge-Lorton Volunteer 
Fire Department. Their efforts, made on behalf of the citizens of 
Prince William County, are selfless acts of heroism and truly merit our 
highest praise. I ask my colleagues to join me in applauding these 
remarkable individuals.
