  Mr. SHIMKUS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Command

our nation.

from Sterling High School in Sterling, IL in 1983. In 1985, Command 
Sergeant Major Brewster completed Basic Combat Training and Advanced 
Individual Training as an Infantry Soldier at Fort Benning, GA. During 
his 34 years of service, Command Sergeant Major Brewster would serve 
with gallantry at every command level, finishing his service as the 
Command Sergeant Major for Army Reserve Medical Command in Pinellas 
Park, FL. In his civilian capacity, Command Sergeant Major Brewster is 
a Firefighter and Engineer for Poudre Fire Authority and has been in 
the fire service since 1993.
  Madam Speaker, I thank Command Sergeant Major Brewster for his 34 
years of dedicated service, and wish him well as he starts this next 
chapter in his life.
