BROOKFIELD â Congressman Jim Sensenbrenner, R-Menomonee Falls, has announced the nomination of 31 candidates from Wisconsinâs Fifth Congressional District for appointment to the U.S. service academies, with some from the Watertown area.
âThis year Wisconsinâs Fifth Congressional District yielded another outstanding group of students interested in attending the academies, Sensenbrenner said. They have demonstrated the ability to serve our nation, and I wish them all tremendous success. I would like to thank our Academy Selection Committee for the work they put into interviewing and assessing this yearâs applicants. Their efforts play a vital role in this process. As I approach my retirement from Congress in a few short days, I can say the ability to nominate students to our nationâs service academies has been one of the highest honors.â
