                     RECOGNIZING SERGEANT THOMAS REID, JR.

      (Mr. CHABOT asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
    minute.)
      Mr. CHABOT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor and thank Sergeant
    Thomas Reid, Jr., for his 45 years of service with the Cincinnati
    Police Department.
      A lot has changed since he joined the department back in 1972, after
    serving in Vietnam, but one thing has remained the same. For 4\1/2\
    decades, Sergeant Reid continued to dedicate himself to keeping our
    community safe.
      During his time on the force, Sergeant Reid led by example and passed
    his knowledge and experience on to his fellow officers, often advising
    them to ``treat others as you want to be treated.''
      Sergeant Reid retired at the end of December as the Cincinnati Police
    Department's longest-serving member, and his leadership and guidance
    will be missed. The city of Cincinnati is a better place because of his
    service, and his legacy and impact will be felt in our community for
    years to come. For that, Mr. Speaker, we Cincinnatians are deeply
    grateful and indebted to him.
      Thank you, Sergeant Reid.
