Congressional Record, Volume 171 Issue 57 (Monday, March 31, 2025) [Congressional Record Volume 171, Number 57 (Monday, March 31, 2025)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page E263] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] SALUTING THE SERVICE OF LIEUTENANT BRIAN M. FRICK ______ HON. JOHN R. CARTER of texas in the house of representatives Monday, March 31, 2025 Mr. CARTER of Texas. Mr. Speaker, it is my privilege to present a Congressional Veterans Commendation to Lieutenant Brian M. Frick, U.S. Navy, for his exemplary service. His unwavering commitment to our Nation and his efforts to improve his community have made lasting, positive impacts on countless lives. LT Frick served honorably in the U.S. Navy as a member of the operational team. During his eight years in the Submarine Service, he held key roles as a lead sonar operator/technician, sonar watch supervisor, and sonar supervisor. Throughout his service, LT Frick earned numerous awards and accolades, including the Navy Achievement Medal for his exceptional submarine tracking abilities and technical expertise. After leaving the Navy, LT Frick pursued higher education at the University of Texas at San Antonio, earning a degree in Criminal Justice with a minor in Sociology. He continued his dedication to public service by beginning his civilian career with the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS). At DPS, LT Frick worked with the Highway Patrol and served as a K-9 handler before joining the Criminal Investigations Division (CID) as a Narcotics Agent in Amarillo, Harlingen, and Brownsville, Texas, where he focused on Border and Drug Interdiction issues. Later, as a Senior Agent in Amarillo, he mentored new agents in surveillance techniques, conducted criminal investigations, and drafted search warrants. He now leads the CID Training Unit, supervising eight Training Agents/ Coordinators. I am honored to join LT Frick's friends and family in celebrating his years of dedicated service and sacrifice. I applaud his work and wish him success and safety as he continues to serve our community with pride and honor. ____________________
