Each year many young men and women
think about attending one of our nation's service academies:
Air Force,
Army,
Merchant Marine and
Navy.
As a Member of Congress, I am permitted
to nominate a limited number of high school seniors for this
honor.
If you are interested in attending a service academy it is to your benefit to
begin the application process in your junior year in high school. This begins
by writing a letter informing me that you would like to be nominated to a
service academy. Please specify which academy and if you are interested in more
than one there is no need to send a separate letter for each academy.
After I have received your letter I will return a personal data sheet for you to
fill out and return to me, instructions for other information I require, and a
card to send to the chosen service academy which will inform them of your
interest. I will present my nominations to the service academies in December of
your senior year and appointments are announced by the academies the following
June. Remember, although a nomination is required for an appointment it is not
a guarantee of acceptance by a service academy.
If you are thinking about attending a service academy please
contact me at the Toledo office address.
I am very proud of the previous outstanding nominees from the 9th district and I
hope I can be of help to you if you aspire for a challenging education at a
service academy.
