  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 Jackson Grefe of Sylvania, 
Ohio, has been offered an appointment to the United States Military 
Academy in West Point, New York.
  Jackson's offer of appointment permits him to attend the United 
States Military 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.
  Jackson brings a tremendous amount of leadership, service, and 
dedication to the incoming Class of 2025. While attending Whitmer High 
School in Toledo, Ohio, Jackson participated in student government, 
Speech and Debate, German Club, and was a member of National Honor 
Society.
  Throughout high school, Jackson was involved with cross country and 
track and field, achieving his varsity letter in both. I am confident 
that Jackson will carry the lessons of his student and athletic 
leadership to the Military Academy.
  Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating 
Jackson Grefe on his offer of appointment to the United States Military 
Academy. Our service academies offer the finest military training and 
education available. I am positive that Jackson will excel during his 
career at the Military Academy, and I ask my colleagues to join me in 
extending their best wishes to him as he begins his service to our 
nation.
