WASHINGTON – On Thursday, legislation introduced by Congresswoman Cheri Bustos, D-East Moline, to rename the U.S. Post Office on East Main Street in Galesburg as the “Senior Airman Daniel Miller Post Office Building” passed the House of Representatives and will now head to the Senate.
In 2004, Daniel Miller of Galesburg, joined the United States Air Force after graduating from ROWVA High School in Oneida, where he played varsity football and his principal described him as “always smiling” and “caring about everyone.” Miller went on to earn the rank of Senior Airman and became an Explosive Ordinance Disposal Airman. He was deployed from the 775th Civil Engineer Squadron’s Explosive Ordinance Disposal Flight in Hill Air Force Base, Utah, which is responsible for defusing military and improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and working with chemical and biological weapons.
