  Congratulations to them all.
  We thank the Veterans Council for helping with the interview process 
and vetting these young people.
  We thank the parents for raising them to be the go-getters that they 
are and for the dedication required to get to this point. And we thank 
the nominees themselves for the hard work that it takes and the service 
that they are willing to do and put out and their sacrifice for us.
  God bless them all.
