WASHINGTON, D.C. – 5/22/08 – Rep. George Miller (D-Martinez) today announced the names of two appointees to the U.S. service academies from the seventh Congressional district.
“These young people deserve great credit for their academic, athletic, and extracurricular achievements,” said Miller. “I am proud to be able to nominate them to the U.S. service academies, and I know that their greatest achievements are ahead of them.”
Miller’s Academy 2008 appointees are:

The academies make the final decision on which students they accept from a national pool of applicants. Students interested in attending one of the academies should request information and an application packet by writing to Miller’s office at 3220 Blume Drive, Suite 281, Richmond, CA, 94806, or by calling (510) 262-6500.
