WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Congressman Sam Johnson (TX-03) is proud to nominate 41 Collin County students to the U.S. Service Academies for the Class of 2023. Each service academy will make formal offers of appointment in spring 2019.
This is the final nomination class by Rep. Johnson, who is retiring at the end of this Congress. As the U.S. Representative for the Third District of Texas, Johnson has nominated hundreds of students to U.S. Service Academies who have served with distinction at their academies and in the military.
“Second to God, serving our Great Nation is the worthiest calling of my life, which is why nominating students to America’s service academies is both a high honor and a great responsibility,” said Johnson. “I am thankful for the opportunity to nominate these fine young men and women before I retire at the end of this Congress. They have each undergone a competitive and rigorous selection process based on academic performance; extracurricular, civic, and service activities; and athletic aptitude. They are fine young Americans, and it’s my privilege to nominate this next generation of leaders as they answer the call of duty. I congratulate them and know they will represent our community well as the Academies make appointment decisions.”
Students interested in learning more about service academy applications should contact their U.S. Representative or U.S. Senators, who are able to make nominations.
