                         HON. STEVEN M. PALAZZO

                             of mississippi

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, June 7, 2016

  Mr. PALAZZO. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
recognize Mr. Justin Prendergast as a member of the United States Naval 
Academy Class of 2016.
  Justin graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy with a degree in 
aerospace engineering and he received a commission as a Second 
Lieutenant in the United States Marine Corps on May 27th, 2016.
  His career in the service has just begun, but it is a testament to 
Justin's unselfish devotion to the people of this great nation.
  The challenges will be many and the time, although it may seem like 
an eternity, will fly by almost unnoticed.
  South Mississippi is proud of Justin and his accomplishments, and we 
look forward to him continuing to represent not only Mississippi, but 
the entire nation, as a United States Marine Corps officer.
  As Justin embarks on a new chapter in life, it is my hope that he may 
always recall with a deep sense of pride and accomplishment graduating 
from a program as prestigious as the Naval Academy.
  I would like to send Justin my best wishes for continued success in 
his future endeavors, thank him for his service, and congratulate him 
on this momentous occasion.
