  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.
