“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Tom Neubauer, the recipient of the 2018 Defense Community Leadership Award. Tom is a highly respected leader of the defense community in Florida and a personal friend of mine back in Bay County, which is my home. Tom has been the leading communicator between our military and civilian communities for as long as I can remember. He was instrumental in bringing the MQ-9 Reaper Wing to Tyndall Air Force Base and worked tirelessly to support and protect the Military Mission Line. Both Tom and his wife, Margaret, are Air Force brats. Their love for our soldiers, sailors, and airmen shines through in all that they do. Tom has been building better relations and a tighter sense of community between military and civilian communities not only in Bay County, but throughout Florida and the Nation. Mr. Speaker, please join me in congratulating Tom Neubauer on receiving this prestigious award and thanking him for his work for military communities throughout this country. ____________________”
