The Congressman's office presented Rod with the Congressional Record containing Congressman Walberg's remarks honoring Rod's service and dedication to our community. Rod Fikel served as an MOS 25V Combat Documentation Specialist in the U.S. Army from 1989 to 1996 and was deployed to both Kuwait and Iraq.

"On this Veterans Day, it is my privilege to recognize Rod Fikel from Coldwater for his service and significant contributions to our great nation," said Rep. Walberg.
