                       Friday, September 20, 2019

  Ms. TLAIB. Madam Speaker, I rise today in tribute to Captain Michael 
Preadmore for his many years of service to the Melvindale-Dearborn 
Consolidated Fire Department, on the occasion of his retirement.
   During his twenty-three years of service, Captain Preadmore has 
moved steadily through the ranks, garnering accolades for his 
dedication and bravery along the way. Preadmore joined the City of 
Melvindale's Fire Department as a firefighter in 1996. From there, he 
was quickly promoted to sergeant, lieutenant, and ultimately, captain. 
A consummate professional who knows safety doesn't take a day off, 
Captain Preadmore has been acknowledged for his perfect attendance 
multiple times and he has dedicated his time toward working to advanced 
certification, including confined space and rope rescue. Above and 
beyond that, Captain Preadmore has been recognized for his bravery in 
the line of duty, receiving the Fire Chief Life Saving Award twice, the 
Department Medal of Valor award, and the Fire Chief Unit Commendation.
   In short, Captain Preadmore has served bravely and nobly. Please 
join me in saluting him for his twenty-three years of public service as 
we wish him well on his retirement.
