  Mr. GRAVES. Madam Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize Nicholas J. 
Moore, 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 900, and in earning the most prestigious 
award of Eagle Scout.
  Nicholas has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. When Nicholas achieved the rank of Eagle Scout this 
summer at Bartle Camp, he became the first Eagle Scout in Boy Scout 
Troop 900. Over the many years Nicholas has been involved with 
scouting, he has not only earned numerous merit badges, but also the 
respect of his family, peers, and community.
  Madam Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Nicholas J. 
Moore for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for 
his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle 
Scout.
