This resolution, a formal expression of commendation from the Tennessee General Assembly, honors and commends Officer Michael J. Douglas of the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department for his exceptional dedication and service. Specifically, it recognizes his selfless actions during the January ice storm when he remained at the Mounted Patrol barn for three days to ensure the well-being of eight horses, providing them with essential care like hay and water despite the lack of power and extreme cold. The resolution also highlights Officer Douglas's nearly nineteen-year career with the department, including his time in patrol, the Bikes Unit, the Motorcycle Unit where he was named Officer of the Year in 2017, and his current three years with the Mounted Patrol Unit, where he partners with a horse named Tucker. His commitment to professional development, including extensive mounted patrol training and advanced programs, is also acknowledged, celebrating him as a distinguished law enforcement professional who has brought honor to the State of Tennessee.
