Tell us a little bit more, more about some of the opportunities that you can share with them, like the military service academy. Yeah. This is a really special thing that I love doing. Every year as a member of Congress, we have the responsibility to select young students coming out of high school to be appointed to and get a nomination to the military academies, the Naval Academy, the Air Force Academy, the Merchant Marine Academy, and then West Point. So those four academies, we receive applications in the fall. Applications are due by October 1st, and then we vet them through a committee, and then we make nominations. (13:46–14:03)
