                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. ROBERT E. LATTA

                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, June 4, 2013

  Mr. LATTA. Mr. Speaker, it is my great pleasure to pay special 
tribute to an outstanding student from Ohio's Fifth Congressional 
District. I am pleased to announce that Adam Kleman of Fort Jennings, 
Ohio has accepted an offer of appointment to the United States Air 
Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
  Adam's offer of appointment poises him to attend the United States 
Air Force Academy this fall with the incoming Class of 2017. Attending 
one of our nation's military academies not only offers the opportunity 
to serve our country but also guarantees a world-class education, while 
placing demands on those who undertake one of the most challenging and 
rewarding experiences of their lives.
  Adam brings an enormous amount of leadership, service, and dedication 
to the incoming Class of 2017. While attending Fort Jennings High 
School in Fort Jennings, Ohio, Adam was a Member of the National Honor 
Society and ranked near the top of his class academically.
  Throughout high school, Adam was a member of his school's soccer and 
track teams and earned varsity letters in both sports. In addition, 
Adam was a member of the marching and pep bands, as well as the annual 
high school musical, junior fair board, 4-H, junior leadership, and Boy 
Scouts of America. I am confident that Adam will carry the lessons of 
his student and athletic leadership to the Air Force Academy.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating Adam 
Kleman on the acceptance of his appointment to the United States Air 
Force Academy. Our service academies offer the finest military training 
and education available. I am positive that Adam 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.
