ANNAPOLIS, M.D. – Each year, U.S. Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND) nominates North Dakotans to the five service academies where they receive a world-class education and begin their careers in the Armed Services. Today, Cramer caught up with two of the Midshipmen he nominated, Midshipman Loren Steinberg and Midshipman Rebecca Van Vleet at the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Md.
“What a privilege to have breakfast this morning with North Dakota Midshipmen Loren Steinberg and Rebecca Van Vleet and the Deputy Commandant of Midshipmen, Captain David S. Forman,” said Cramer. “They make North Dakota proud with their hard work, service, and dedication. Midshipman Steinberg then graciously showed me around the Yard before I sat down with U. S. Naval Academy Superintendent Vice Admiral Yvette M. Davids to hear more about the Naval Academy’s role in preparing the Navy’s next generation of leaders.”
The United States Naval Academy and other service academies attract some of the brightest and most dedicated North Dakotans to begin their service with the rigorous education provided by the decorated members of our Armed Services and their civilian counterparts.
