                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. JOHN H. RUTHERFORD

                               of florida

                    in the house of representatives

                        Friday, August 18, 2017

  Mr. RUTHERFORD. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to ask the United States 
House of Representatives to join me in recognizing the 2016 Emergency 
Medical Services Provider of the Year, Craig Wright.
  Mr. Wright currently works at the Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay Fire 
Department, where he exhibits his heroism and humility on a daily 
basis. His individual actions have had

positive and substantial impacts on the residents of Kings Bay.
  Mr. Wright attributes his success to the unity experienced among him 
and his co-workers in the fire department, stating that nothing he 
``did individually can't be contributed to the whole team.'' The 
resulting feeling of family between the Kings Bay fire fighters yielded 
a Fire Department of the Year award, for the fifth year in a row. 
Again, Mr. Wright and all of the fire fighters emphasized their 
camaraderie and loyalty as the keys to their success.
  Mr. Speaker, I applaud Craig Wright for his service to the Kings Bay 
Fire Department and to his fellow fire fighters. His commitment has 
strengthened the community and all of its members.
