  Mr. GRAVES. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize Jacob Lee Wier, 
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 395, and in earning the most prestigious award of 
Eagle Scout.
  Jacob has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. He has camped at the H. Roe Bartle Scout Reservation 
for six years and earned the rank of Firebuilder in the Tribe of Mic-O-
Say. Over the many years Jacob has been involved with scouting, he has 
not only earned numerous merit badges, but also the respect of his 
family, peers, and community.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Jacob Lee 
Wier for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for his 
efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle Scout.
