Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Peter Van Cise of Julian, Pennsylvania. Peter is a senior at the Bald Eagle Area High School. When considering his post-graduation options, Peter honorably chose to commit himself to serving his country. I am proud of Peter and pleased to announce that he has accepted a fully qualified appointment to the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado. Peter is the son of Ann Van Cise and Dana Van Cise, an Air Force veteran. He is the youngest of seven children. Peter excelled in the classroom, on the soccer field, and in his community as a true leader. I know that his hard work as a student will serve him well as he starts his military career in the Air Force Academy. Peter has continually demonstrated a sincere commitment to service, and I wish him all the best in this exciting new venture. ____________________
