Congressman Bob Latta recently announced his nominations from Ohio’s Fifth Congressional District for consideration for acceptance into the United States Air Force, Merchant Marine, Military, and Naval Academies in the Class of 2027.
Daniel Hazard, of Maumee, a student at St. John’s Jesuit High School, was nominated to the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy in Kings Points, New York.
Veronica Florek, of Maumee, a student at Springfield High School, was nominated to the U.S. Military Academy in West Point, New York, and the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy.
“It is my honor to nominate such outstanding young men and women from across Ohio’s Fifth District for consideration to our prestigious service academies,” said Rep. Latta.
“This year’s group of nominees are some of the most well-rounded students, and I wish them the best of luck as they continue through the admittance process. I can’t wait to see what their futures hold.”
A nomination does not guarantee acceptance to an academy; that responsibility rests with their admissions office.
