                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 21, 2015

  Mr. PALAZZO. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
recognize Mr. Matthew Goellner as a member of the United States Air 
Force Academy Class of 2015.
  Matthew will graduate from the U.S. Air Force Academy as a Second 
Lieutenant in the United States Air Force on May 28, 2015.

  His career in the service has just begun, but it is a testament to 
Matthew's unselfish devotion to the people of this great nation. The 
challenges will be many and the time, although it may seem like an 
eternity, will fly by almost unnoticed.
  The challenge for this young man will be to retain as much as 
possible, pass on what he learns to others, and live life for every 
moment.
  South Mississippi is proud of Matthew and his accomplishments, and we 
look forward to him continuing to represent not only Mississippi, but 
the entire nation, as a United States Air Force officer.
  As Matthew embarks on a new chapter in life, it is my hope that he 
may always recall with a deep sense of pride and accomplishment 
graduating from a program as prestigious as the Air Force Academy.
  I would like to send Matthew my best wishes for continued success in 
his future endeavors, thank him for his service, and congratulate him 
on this momentous occasion.
