                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, April 5, 2018

  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 Cameron Smith of Maumee, Ohio 
has been offered an appointment to the United States Naval Academy in 
Annapolis, Maryland.
  Cameron's offer of appointment permits him to attend the United 
States Naval Academy this fall with the incoming Class of 2022. 
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 undertaking one of the most challenging and rewarding 
experiences of a lifetime.
  Cameron brings a tremendous amount of leadership, service, and 
dedication to the incoming Class of 2022. While attending Anthony Wayne 
High School in Whitehouse, Ohio, Cameron served as Student Council 
treasurer, secretary for the Interact Club, participated in National 
Honors Society and is ranked fifth in his class.
  Throughout high school, Cameron performed in the All-Nationals Honor 
Band, Symphonic Winds, and OMEA All-State Honor Band. Cameron also 
served as an officer in the environmental club, is an Eagle Scout, and 
participated in the Spanish club. I am confident that Cameron will 
carry the lessons of his student and extra-curricular leadership to the 
Naval Academy.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating Cameron 
Smith on his offer of appointment to the United States Naval Academy. 
Our service academies offer the finest military training and education 
available. I am positive that Cameron will excel during his career at 
Naval Academy, and I ask my colleagues to join me in extending their 
best wishes to him as he begins his service to our Nation.
