Harrisburg — In a Senate floor ceremony today, state Sens. Mike Stack and Christine Tartaglione presented Mayfair resident Sgt. Patrick Hamill with a Senate citation and thanked him for his service to our country and for his courageous efforts to advance stability in Iraq.
Hamill, 30, a member of the 56th Stryker Brigade of the Pennsylvania Army National Guard, completed three tours of duty in Iraq and returned to his career at home as a state trooper last month.
“We’re always so proud of our service men and women, and Sergeant Hamill deserves to be recognized for his bravery and willingness to help keep the people of Iraq safe and rebuild their nation,” Tartaglione said. “I’m so glad he returned home safe after each mission and I know I speak for all Pennsylvanians when I express my gratitude to this fine young man.”
Stack, who is a captain in the Pennsylvania National Guard, said he is especially honored to introduce a member of the armed forces to the legislature.
“Sergeant Hamill is a true hero. He has made tremendous sacrifices, not once, but three times so that the people of Iraq may achieve peace and stability in their country,” Stack said. “He put his life on the line every day, and plans to continue a similar commitment in Pennsylvania as a state trooper. He’s simply a remarkably selfless individual.”
