  In May of 1993, Mr. Lynn was promoted to his current rank of 
Assistant Chief of Police. As commander of the Management Services 
Bureau, Assistant Chief Lynn was awarded his second Meritorious Service 
Award. He also served as Interim Chief of Police for several months in 
both 1998 and 2005 for the Police Department.
  Mr. Speaker, it is with great honor that I recognize Assistant Chief
