                      TRIBUTE TO MICHAEL D. CURRY

                                 ______


                          HON. PAUL E. GILLMOR

                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 5, 1994

  Mr. GILLMOR. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
recognize an exceptional young man from my district who has recently 
accepted his appointment as a member of the Class of 1998 at the U.S. 
Air Force Academy.
  Michael D. Curry will soon graduate Edon High School after 4 years of 
outstanding academic achievement as well as extracurricular 
involvement. While in high school Christopher has distinguished himself 
as a leader among his peers. He is a member of the National Honor 
Society as well as a member of his school basketball and baseball 
teams.
  Mr. Speaker, one of the most important responsibilities of Members of 
Congress is to identify outstanding young men and women and to nominate 
them for admission to the United States service academies. While at the 
Academy, they will be the beneficiaries of one of the finest educations 
available, so that in the future, they might be entrusted with the very 
security of our Nation.
  I am confident that Michael Curry has both the ability and the desire 
to meet this challenge. I ask my colleagues to join me in 
congratulating him for his accomplishments to date and to wish him the 
best of luck as he begins his career in service to our country.
