  Ms. GRANGER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Captain Gil 
Miller on his retirement from the United States Navy and to thank him 
for his many years of dedicated service.
   Captain Miller is a Naval Academy graduate who has devoted 25 years 
of his life to serving our country. For the last two years he has

done an outstanding job as commander of Naval Air Station Fort Worth 
Joint Reserve Base in Tarrant County, Texas. He has served our country 
well while also making significant contributions to the communities 
around the base.
   Earlier in his career, Captain Miller flew SH-2 and SH-60 
helicopters based on ships in the Eastern Pacific, Central America, and 
Caribbean. He also flew fleet airlift missions in the Beechcraft C-12 
and the C-130T Hercules transport for three tours, and deployed on 
relief missions for the Pakistani earthquake and Hurricanes Katrina and 
Rita.
   Captain Miller served two tours in the Pentagon as Executive 
Assistant to the Deputy Director and as principal briefer to the 
Undersecretary of Defense for all Reserve and National Guard 
mobilizations, deployment orders, and global force management.
   While Captain Miller has served our country he has been blessed with 
the support of his wife, Cheryl.
   I offer my heartfelt thanks and congratulations to Captain Miller 
for his outstanding career in the Navy and wish him the best in his 
retirement.
