  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, on the 90th anniversary of the Point 
Pleasant Fire Co. #1, we recognize the spirit and unflinching courage 
of dedicated volunteers who run to the rescue--ready to protect their 
neighbors and the community--since 1924. The Point Pleasant Fire Co. 
now has grown into a much larger fire organization with many more well-
trained volunteers who comprise the complement of firefighters and dive 
and technical rescue teams. Also, on his day, we may reflect on the 
generations of firefighters and company officers who answered the call. 
They are an integral part of the great history of the Point Pleasant 
Fire Co. and their service will be remembered as an example of the true 
spirit of first responders everywhere. Today's firefighters continue to 
set an example of public service and volunteerism for others to follow 
and the community is grateful to those who contribute to this effort.
