Dr. Joyce Announces U.S. Service Academy Appointment for Ryan Benedict of Adams County
Washington, DC – Congressman John Joyce M.D. (PA-13) today announced that Ryan Benedict of Adams County has been offered an appointment to the U.S. Military Academy for the Class of 2027. Ryan currently attends Gettysburg High School and is the son of Alexander Benedict and Trisha Rainbow.
“Congratulations to Ryan Benedict on his appointment to the U.S. Military Academy for the Class of 2027. Through his exemplary preparation, Ryan has demonstrated a dedication to service,” said Congressman Joyce. “The service academy appointment process is highly selective and competitive. I am thrilled that Ryan has received an appointment to the U.S Military Academy, and I commend him and his family on this great achievement.”
All prospective students wishing to attend a U.S. service academy must be nominated by a Member of Congress or another U.S. official and then are rigorously evaluated by the service academies, which determine appointments. Candidates in Pennsylvania’s 13th Congressional District are interviewed and selected by a board of former service academy graduates living in our communities.
