Gainesville students to attend Air Force and Naval academies

GAINESVILLE, Ga.—Two students from northeast Georgia have been offered admission to a U.S. military academy. Cameron Sturdivant will join the class of 2022 at the U.S. Air Force Academy, and Chase Nufer will attend the U.S. Naval Academy.

Rep. Doug Collins (R-Ga.) nominated these students to the military academies because of their integrity and track record of accomplishment in the community.

“I couldn’t be prouder of Cameron and Chase, who have dedicated themselves to servant leadership roles early in life. I look forward to their success in Colorado Springs and Annapolis as they reflect the strong character of northeast Georgia,” said Collins.

Sturdivant is the son of Chere Rucker. He attends Gainesville High School and is following in the footsteps of his brother, Donovan Moss, who is currently a senior at the Air Force Academy.

Nufer, son of Peter & Heidi Nufer, is the captain of the baseball team at Forsyth Central High School and a member of the National Honor Society.
