                       CONGRATULATING RICK DEASY

  (Mr. CARTER of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Rick 
Deasy, the FLETC Associate Director for Training, who plans to retire 
this coming February.
  Rick has had a long and impressive career working for the Federal 
Government. He served honorably for 22 years in the Armed Forces with 
active and reserve special operations forces.
  Before working at FLETC, Rick served as Chief of the U.S. Immigration 
and Customs Enforcement and the Homeland Security Investigations 
Training Academy.
  During his tenure as the associate director, Rick was charged with 
developing and executing FLETC's COVID-19 response, which he did 
impeccably.
  He also championed the need for a FLETC medical liaison officer to 
service medical professionals and trainees.
  While Rick may be retiring, his impact on FLETC, our district, and 
our Nation will be felt for generations to come.
  Congratulations, Rick, on a wonderful and successful career. We hope 
you enjoy your retirement.
