  Mr. GRAVES. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize Brad Knipp of 
Blue Springs, Missouri, 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, and in earning the most prestigious 
award of Eagle Scout.
  Brad has been very active with his troop, participating in many scout 
activities. Over the many years Brad has been involved with scouting, 
he has not only earned numerous merit badges, but the respect of his 
family, peers, and community.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Brad Knipp 
for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for his 
efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle Scout.
