  Mr. GRAVES. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize Aaron Mark 
Dunn, a very special young man who has exemplified the finest qualities 
of citizenship and leadership by taking an active part in the Boy 
Scouts of America, troop 120, and in earning the most prestigious award 
of Eagle Scout.
  Aaron has been very active with his troop, participating in such 
Scout activities as Camp Geiger, Cosmosphere and the Philmont Scout 
Ranch and the Atikokan Canoe Base in Canada. Over the 6 years he has 
been involved in Scouting, he has held numerous leadership positions, 
serving as assistant patrol leader, patrol leader troop guide and 
junior assistant scoutmaster. Aaron also has been honored for his 
numerous Scouting achievements with such awards as the 50 Miler Award 
and the Firebuilder in the Tribe of Mic-O-Say Award.
  For his Eagle Scout project, Aaron renovated, repaired and painted 
the Wheeling Municipal Ball Park in Wheeling, Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I 
proudly ask you to join me in commending Aaron Mark Dunn for his 
accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for his efforts put 
forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle Scout.
