                RECOGNIZING REAR ADMIRAL MICHAEL MILLER

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. IKE SKELTON

                              of missouri

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, July 13, 2010

  Mr. SKELTON. Madam Speaker, let me recognize and congratulate an 
outstanding Naval Officer, RADM Michael Miller, upon the completion of 
more than two years of distinguished service as the United States 
Navy's Chief of Legislative Affairs. I am honored to commend Rear 
Admiral Miller's achievements on the Navy's behalf as well as his 
devotion to our nation.
  Rear Admiral Miller graduated from the United States Naval Academy in 
1974 and earned his ``Wings of Gold'' two years later. He has served 
tours around the world flying the S-3 Viking, and he has served at sea 
as Executive Officer and later in command of the USS John F. Kennedy 
(CV-67), the USS Coronado (AGF-11), and Carrier Strike Group 7. Rear 
Admiral Miller also served as the first-ever active duty Director of 
the White House Military Office.
  As Chief of Legislative Affairs, Rear Admiral Miller showed the 
integrity, skill, and professionalism for which we honor our brave men 
and women in uniform. His work helped ensure the United States Navy's 
readiness and superior capabilities.
  Rear Admiral Miller was recently nominated and confirmed for 
appointment to the rank of Vice Admiral. In connection with this 
promotion, he will be assigned as Superintendant of the United States 
Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland.
  Madam Speaker, I wish Rear Admiral Miller continued success and 
fulfillment as he undertakes this new challenge. I trust my colleagues 
in the House will join me in saluting this fine Naval Officer.
