  Mr. JOHNSON of Texas. Madam Speaker, I rise this morning to salute 
our soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines of tomorrow, the service-
bound academy students of the Third District of Texas. This district of 
Texas is home to some of the best and the brightest young people. It is 
always an honor to recommend such high caliber students to our Nation's 
service academies.
  These students represent the future of our Armed Forces. Each one is 
a leader and will do a superb job serving in the finest military in the 
world. My thoughts and prayers are with each student as they pursue 
their dreams and serve their country.
  I know each student is ready to join the premier military force of 
the world and wish them all the best.
  The 8 appointees and their hometowns are as follows:

Academy; Ji, (Alex), Hyuk Hong, Allen, TX, U.S. Naval Academy.
