I am honored, as a Senator and graduate of the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy, to nominate Arizona’s best and brightest young people for appointment to the four service academies that require nominations: the U.S. Air Force Academy, the U.S. Naval Academy, the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy and the U.S. Military Academy (West Point). The fifth service academy, the U.S. Coast Guard Academy does not require a congressional nomination for appointment.
As a former Navy pilot, combat veteran and retired NASA astronaut, it is an honor to continue my service to our country representing Arizona in the United States Senate. Attending a service academy is an incredible opportunity and responsibility. It is the first step in a life of service to your country.
Wishing you luck as you pursue your goal of attending one of the U.S. Service Academies. And in the words of the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy motto: “Acta Non Verba,” or “Deeds Not Words.”
