             HIGHLIGHTING SERVICE ACADEMY NOMINATION BOARD

  (Mr. BUDD asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. BUDD. Madam Speaker, I rise today to highlight one of the most 
rewarding responsibilities I have as a Member of Congress: the honor of 
nominating students to the service academies.
  This past weekend, I met with my Service Academy Nomination Board for 
North Carolina's 13th Congressional District to begin the review 
process. This year's board includes Mr. Ronald Hope of Advance, Mr. 
Matt Reyes of Mooresville, Mr. Doug Lain of High Point, Mrs. Rayne 
Brown of Lexington, Mr. Wayne Davidson of Greensboro, Mr. John Sherden 
of Mocksville, and Mr. Frank Pugh of Greensboro.
  I am grateful that these individuals sacrificed their time and effort 
to help review applications, interview candidates, and recommend 
qualified individuals for the nominations. I look forward to announcing 
our nominees in the coming weeks.
  Madam Speaker, please join me in thanking the members of our board 
and all the applicants who want to serve our great country.
