U.S. Representative John Rose (TN-06) is pleased to announce details for the 2023 Military Service Academy Day. The annual event gives students and parents from across the 6th Congressional District a chance to hear from representatives, alumni, cadets, and midshipmen from various Military Service Academies and ROTC programs. Any middle or high schooler interested in attending one of the nation’s premiere Military Service Academies or learning about available college scholarship opportunities is encouraged to attend.
“One of the highest honors of my job as a Member of Congress is the opportunity to nominate the best and brightest young, patriotic Tennesseans from the 6th District to our nation’s four extraordinary Military Service Academies,” Rep. Rose said. “Every year, I look forward to meeting so many students who are eager to serve their country.”
The event will also provide details about the application process for those seeking a nomination from Congressman Rose. Members of Congress may nominate candidates for appointment to four of the five U.S. Military Academies: U.S. Military Academy (USMA), West Point, NY; the U.S. Naval Academy (USNA), Annapolis, MD; the U.S. Air Force Academy (USAFA), Colorado Springs, CO; and the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy (USMMA), Kings Point, NY.
