Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Lindsey Bordas, a senior at Philipsburg-Osceola High School. Recently, Lindsey accepted a fully qualified appointment to the United States Military Academy in West Point, New York. Lindsey is a leader in the classroom and in her community. She is her senior class salutatorian and class president. Lindsey is also an active member of her school's fly-fishing club and her church youth group. Her determination and drive will make her an excellent addition to the military academy, and I am confident she will rise to the occasion and excel during her education and in her service to our country. I would like to thank Lindsey for her commitment and her willingness to serve, and I wish her all the best in this exciting new chapter. ____________________
