   RECOGNIZING BRADEN ZUKOWSKI ON HIS APPOINTMENT TO THE U.S. NAVAL 
                                ACADEMY

  (Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to 
congratulate Braden Zukowski of Saxonburg, Pennsylvania. Braden is a 
high school senior at Knoch High School. He is the son of Brad Zukowski 
and Shauna Braun-Zukowski.
  I am pleased to announce that Braden recently accepted a fully 
qualified appointment to the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, 
Maryland.
  Braden is a shining example of what leadership looks like. His hard 
work and dedication to excellence in and out of the classroom are the 
qualities that will make him a great midshipman. I am confident that he 
will continue to excel during his time at the Naval Academy.
  Not only is Braden a leader in the classroom, he has also excelled in 
sports, serving as captain of the Knoch High School swim and cross 
country teams. He is also an active member of the chemistry, Spanish, 
history, and robotics clubs, as well as a National Honor Society 
member.
  Mr. Speaker, I applaud Braden's decision to join our Nation's Armed 
Forces, and I wish him the best of luck in his new venture.
