                                 ______


                          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.
  Joshua P. Armey will soon graduate Continental High School after 4 
years of outstanding academic achievement as well as extracurricular 
involvement. While in high school Joshua has distinguished himself as a 
leader among his peers. He is an honor roll student and member of the 
National Honor Society. In addition, he is a member of his school's 
varsity baseball, basketball, and soccer 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 U.S. 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 Joshua Armey has both the ability and the desire 
to meet this challenge. I ask my colleagues to join me in 
congratulating him for him accomplishments to date and to wish him the 
best of luck as he begins his career in service to our country.
