                         Wednesday, May 1, 2019

  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 Chelsea Taylor of Van Wert, 
Ohio has been offered an appointment to the United States Air Force 
Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
  Chelsea's offer of appointment permits her to attend the United 
States Air Force 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.
  Chelsea brings a tremendous amount of leadership, service, and 
dedication to the incoming Class of 2023. While attending Crestview 
High School in Convoy, Ohio, Chelsea received numerous academic 
achievement awards and was ranked first in her class.
  Throughout high school, Chelsea was involved with cheerleading, 
track, and gymnastics. I am confident that Chelsea will carry the 
lessons of her student and athletic leadership to the Air Force 
Academy.
  Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating 
Chelsea Taylor on her offer of appointment to the United States Air 
Force Academy. Our service academies offer the finest military training 
and education available. I am positive that Chelsea will excel during 
her career at the Air Force Academy, and I ask my colleagues to join me 
in extending their best wishes to her as she begins her service to our 
Nation.
