                         Thursday, June 1, 2023

  Mr. ALLEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate my constituent, 
Mark Abell, upon his acceptance to the United States Military Academy 
at West Point.
  As a future cadet, he will be joining the ranks of the world's most 
fearsome fighting force--the United States Army--guided by duty, honor, 
and country.
  The service and sacrifice of America's military personnel have 
safeguarded our Nation since its inception, defending our way of life 
from Lexington to Normandy.
  And throughout our history, American soldiers have demonstrated 
tremendous courage and strength, beating back tyranny to the ends of 
the Earth.
  I was glad to sponsor Mark's nomination and I am confident that his 
talents will distinguish him among his peers both during his time at 
West Point and thereafter.
  Congratulations to Mark. I know that he will make this Nation proud.

                          ____________________
