  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 Cayden Smith of Maumee, Ohio, 
has been offered an appointment to the United States Naval Academy in 
Annapolis, Maryland.
  Cayden's offer of appointment permits him to attend the United States 
Naval Academy this fall with the incoming Class of 2025. 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.
  Cayden brings a tremendous amount of leadership, service, and 
dedication to the incoming Class of 2025. While attending Anthony Wayne 
High School in Whitehouse, Ohio, Cayden participated in his student 
government, Environmental Awareness Club, Boy Scouts of America, and 
was a member of National Honor Society.
  Throughout high school, Cayden was involved with cross county and 
crew, achieving his varsity letter in crew. I am confident that Cayden 
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 
Cayden 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 Cayden 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.
