                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, April 20, 2016

  Mr. LATTA. Mr. 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 Adam Hug of Bryan, Ohio has 
been offered an appointment to the United States Military Academy in 
West Point, New York.
  Adam's offer of appointment poises him to attend the United States 
Military Academy this fall with the incoming Class of 2020. 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.
  Adam brings an enormous amount of leadership, service, and dedication 
to the incoming Class of 2020. While attending Bryan High School in 
Bryan, Ohio, Adam was named an Outstanding Scholar-Athlete Academy 
Award winner, earned academic booster club awards, served on student 
council, was a member of the National Honor Society, and was ranked 
first in his class.
  Throughout high school, Adam was a member of his school's cross 
country, track and field, and swimming teams, earning varsity letters. 
Adam was also selected to attend Buckeye Boys State. I am confident 
that Adam will carry the lessons of his student and athletic leadership 
to the Military Academy.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating Adam 
Hug on the offer of his appointment to the United States Military 
Academy. Our service academies offer the finest military training and 
education available. I am positive that Adam 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.
