Steve Stivers, Jacob Nauman, John VerDowWASHINGTON Congressman Steve Stivers (R OH) this week announced his nomination of four Fairfield County students to the United States military academies. One of my highest honors in Congress is to nominate students who want to serve their country to the United States military academies, Stivers said. We had an impressive group of candidates this year, and I am confident that each one of these nominees would serve our country well and make Ohio's 15th District proud. Stivers nominated the following students: John VerDow was nominated to the Naval Academy, Air Force Academy, and Merchant Marine Academy. VerDow attends Fairfield Union High School and is the son of David and Julie VerDow. Jacob Nauman was nominated to the Merchant Marine Academy, West Point, and the Naval Academy. Nauman attends Lancaster High School and is the son of Jay and Kim Nauman. Tyler Goodwin was nominated to the Air Force Academy, West Point, and the Merchant Marine Academy. He attends Pickerington North High School and is the son of Gregg and Julie Goodwin. Kennedy Turnbull was nominated to the Air Force Academy and the Naval Academy. She is the daughter of Jeff and Brittany Turnbull and attends Pickerington North High School. To receive a service academy nomination from Congressman Stivers, candidates must be unmarried residents of Ohio's 15th Congressional District, United States citizens and between the ages of 17 and 23. In pursuit of a nomination, students submitted an application and were interviewed by Congressman Stivers' Military Academy Review Board. The Board evaluates the students on the basis of academic performance, leadership ability, and community involvement. Congressman Stivers is exceedingly grateful to all of the nominees for their willingness to serve, and to the Military Academy Review Board for all their time in interviewing the students and making recommendations. He encourages qualified persons interested in pursuing a nomination to one of the United States Service Academies in the future to visit www.stivers.house.gov for more information, or contact his Lancaster Office at (740) 654-2654. -30- Congressman Stivers represents the 15th Congressional District.
