Franklin, TN – U.S. Representative Mark Green will host his first Military Service Academy Day on Saturday, November 16th from 12:00pm – 3:00pm in Franklin.
Academy Day will provide interested middle school students, high school students, and parents the opportunity to learn more about our Nation’s military service academies, as well as the nomination process.
“I can remember when I approached my congressman in Mississippi many years ago for a Service Academy nomination. Attending West Point was an unparalleled honor and led me to a lifetime of serving our country,” stated Rep. Green.
“I’m looking forward to speaking to and meeting students from across Tennessee’s 7th district who are interested in following that same path,” Green stated.
Representatives from the following Service Academies have been invited to attend: the U.S. Air Force Academy, U.S. Coast Guard Academy, U.S. Merchant Marine Academy, U.S. Military Academy (West Point), and the U.S. Naval Academy. Representatives from Army, Navy, and Air Force ROTC have also been invited.
This event is open to the public, and the focus will be on students interested in starting the Service Academy nomination process in 2020. For those interested in receiving a nomination in this cycle, this year’s Service Academy nomination deadline is November 1st, 2019. Congressman Green will host a second Academy Day in Clarksville in February 2020.
