A house RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE UNITED sTATES Navy Counselor First Class Natalie Brown OF THE NAVY'S CAREER RECRUITING FORCE UPON THE OCCASION OF HER RETIREMENT, TO SALUTE HER FOR HER YEARS OF EXCEPTIONALLY MERITORIOUS SERVICE IN THE NAVY, AND TO EXTEND BEST WISHES FOR CONTINUED SUCCESS AND FULFILLMENT IN THE YEARS TO COME.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, on behalf of all South Carolinians, acknowledge with deep appreciation the great sacrifice that the men and women of our armed forces make for the ideals of freedom and justice, which are so richly enjoyed in these United States of America; and

Whereas, Natalie Brown stands high among those servicemen and women so honored by their respective states and nation. Over the course of her career, Petty Officer Brown has served with a distinction that has earned her the respect of all who have had the privilege of working with her. Most recently, she has served the Navy's Career Recruiting Force as divisional leading petty officer of Division One, located in and around Tulsa, Oklahoma. This post has proved to be the culminating and concluding role of her military career, which will close officially in 2023; and

Whereas, members of the Navy's Career Recruiting Force are expected to embody the values and attributes of commitment, initiative, and toughness because they operate almost independently in recruiting stations across the country. For Navy counselors serving in this field, the ability to demonstrate effective leadership capabilities is a crucial element to success. In her current role, Navy Counselor First Class Natalie Brown has defined success; and

Whereas, she is responsible for the training, development, and supervision of assigned recruiting personnel and Delayed Entry Program personnel across four recruiting stations, a position normally reserved for chiefs and above. Brown not only leads her division but also excels at maintaining effective recruiting standards, which have made a positive impact and have set the standard throughout the district; and

Whereas, when first assigned to NRD Dallas, Brown, a native of Chester, South Carolina, was placed in the leading petty officer role of Navy Recruiting Station Tulsa South. Under her leadership, one recruiter was meritoriously advanced in paygrade and her recruiting station's performance was recognized as Medium Recruiting Station of the Year for NRD Dallas. As her responsibilities grew to leading an entire division, the success and awards kept coming; and

Whereas, grateful for the legacy of consistent commitment and excellence Petty Officer Brown has bestowed on the people of this great nation, the House takes much pleasure in wishing her well as she enters retirement and trusts she will find much enjoyment in the more leisurely pace of the days ahead. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate United States Navy Counselor First Class Natalie Brown of the Navy's Career Recruiting Force upon the occasion of her retirement, salute her for her years of exceptionally meritorious service in the Navy, and extend best wishes for continued success and fulfillment in the years to come.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to United States Navy Counselor First Class Natalie Brown.
