ROBERT E. LATTA of ohio in the house of representatives Wednesday, April 29, 2026 Mr. LATTA. Mr. Speaker, I rise to pay special tribute to an outstanding student from Ohio's 5th Congressional District. I am pleased to announce that Jack Buell of Pandora, Ohio, has been offered an appointment to the United States Military Academy in West Point, New York. Jack's offer of appointment permits him to attend the United States Military Academy this fall with the incoming Class of 2030. 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 his life. Jack brings a tremendous amount of leadership, service, and dedication to the incoming Class of 2030. While attending Pandora- Gilboa High School, he participated in student government, National Honor Society, Quiz Bowl, and Big Brothers Big Sisters, and was on the honor roll. Throughout high school, Jack was involved in cross country, basketball, and track and field, earning his varsity letter in all three. I am confident that he 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 Jack Buell on his offer of appointment to the United States Military Academy. Our service academies offer the finest military training and education available, and I am positive that Jack will excel during his career at the Military Academy. I ask my colleagues to join me in extending their best wishes to him as he begins his service to our Nation. ____________________
