  Mr. BUCK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Jeanette Steerman, a 
Naval Academy Appointee from Colorado's Fourth Congressional District. 
I believe our greatest assets are America's brave men and women in 
uniform. Jeanette is making an incredible sacrifice for our country and 
deserves our utmost support for her service. It is with great pleasure 
that I give her my endorsement to attend this prestigious institution.
  Jeanette has demonstrated excellent leadership and a heart for public 
service as Class President, National Honor Society President, and 4-H 
President at her high school. She was also an active member and award 
winner of her high school's FFA chapter, in which she held several 
leadership positions. Additionally, Jeanette qualified as an Honor Roll 
student for eight consecutive years and was given a variety of awards 
recognizing her outstanding academic achievements, including the Young 
Einstein Award.
  Our nation owes no greater debt of gratitude than to those who fight 
to protect our freedom and liberty. I commend Jeanette and her family 
for their commitment. On behalf of the 4th Congressional District of 
Colorado, I extend my best wishes to Jeanette.
  Mr. Speaker, it is an honor to recognize Jeanette Steerman as an 
appointee to the Naval Academy for her commitment to protect and serve 
our nation.
