DECATUR, GA – Telling nine students and their families that their service to our nation is needed more than ever, Congressman Hank Johnson announced the Georgia Fourth District nominees for the U.S. Military Academies: Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard and Merchant Marines.
On the day Russia invaded Ukraine in an unwarranted attack, the Congressman used the solemn moment in a virtual event to honor the students for their dedication and bravery.
"During these difficult times, I commend all of you for your dedication, focus and bravery to want to serve our nation in this way," he said. "Tonight, we celebrate the bright future of our young people who will make up our nation's armed forces and shed a light on the folks before them that have served our country faithfully with pride, paving the way for the next generation."
