  Mr. LATTA. Mr. Speaker, it is my great pleasure to pay special 
tribute to an outstanding young man from Ohio's Fifth Congressional 
District. I am happy to announce that James Kegyes of Greenwich, Ohio 
has been offered an appointment to attend the United States Air Force 
Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
  James brings an enormous amount of leadership, service, and 
dedication to the incoming Class of 2015. He is the recipient of a 
Falcon Foundation Scholarship and recently graduated from the 
Northwestern Preparatory School in Santa Barbara, California. James is 
an active member of Ripley Church and spent many of the past years 
participating in the church's youth group. He subsequently was employed 
as a member of the church's staff where he was responsible for audio 
and technical support.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating James 
Kegyes on the acceptance of his appointment to the United States Air 
Force Academy where he will gain a world-class education and invaluable 
leadership experience. I am positive that James will excel during his 
career at the Air Force Academy, and I ask my colleagues to join me in 
extending their best wishes to him as he begins his service to the 
nation.
