                        Thursday, April 28, 2022

  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 Lukas Koeniger of Waterville, 
Ohio, has been offered an appointment to the United States Air Force 
Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
  Lukas' offer of appointment permits him to attend the United States 
Air Force Academy this fall with the incoming Class of 2026. 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.
  Lukas brings a tremendous amount of leadership, service, and 
dedication to the incoming Class of 2026. While attending Anthony Wayne 
High School in Whitehouse, Ohio, Lukas participated in marching band, 
cross country, and track and field, where he earned a varsity letter. 
After graduating from Anthony Wayne High School in 2021, Lukas attended 
the University of Toledo in Toledo, Ohio.
  Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating Lukas 
Koeniger on his 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 Lukas will excel during his 
career at the Air Force Academy, and I ask my colleagues to join me in 
extending their best wishes to him as he begins his service to our 
Nation.
