Washington, DC – Congressman Mike Carey (R-OH) nominated Daniel Reese of Pickaway County to the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, MD. Daniel is the son of Dan and Tara Reese and attends Teays Valley High School in Ashville, OH.

“One of the greatest honors I have as a congressman is to nominate ambitious young men and women across Ohio’s 15th Congressional District to the United States Service Academies,” said Rep. Carey. “It is encouraging to see a younger generation with a drive to serve their country and, having spent time with these students and having learned of their accomplishments, I feel rest assured that the future of our military is in great hands.”

In pursuit of a nomination to a U.S. military academy, students submit their application and are interviewed by Congressman Carey’s Military Academy Review Board. The Board evaluates the students on academic performance, leadership ability, and community involvement.

  • Lt. Colonel (ret.) Patty Hamilton
  • MAJ Tracy Richardson
  • Chief Master Sergeant (ret.) Renee Frey
  • Chief Master Sergeant (ret.) Kelly Gibbs
  • Command Sergeant Major (ret.) Bill Gilliam
  • Master Sergeant (ret.) Bob Brown
