  Mr. LATTA. Madam 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 Nathaniel Erickson of Toledo, 
Ohio has been offered an appointment to the United States Naval Academy 
in Annapolis, Maryland.
  Nathaniel's offer of appointment permits him to attend the United 
States Naval Academy this fall with the incoming Class of 2023. 
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 their lives.
  Nathaniel brings a tremendous amount of leadership, service, and 
dedication to the incoming Class of 2023. While attending Central 
Catholic High School in Toledo, Ohio, Nathaniel was a member of the 
National Honor Society, Honor Roll, and Student Body Council.
  Throughout high school, Nathaniel was involved with football and 
track among other extracurricular activities. I am confident that 
Nathaniel will carry the lessons of his student and athletic leadership 
to the Naval Academy.
  Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating 
Nathaniel Erickson 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 Nathaniel will excel during 
his career at the 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.
