                       HON. SHELLEY MOORE CAPITO

                            of west virginia

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, March 27, 2007

  Mrs. CAPITO. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize a young leader 
in my district, Justin Dahmer, who was recently awarded the rank of 
Eagle Scout. Justin is the 17-year-old son of Roger and Pam Dahmer of 
Franklin, West Virginia, where he attends Pendleton County High School.
  Justin is truly representative of the Scout Oath; to do duty to God 
and country, help others, and maintain physical and mental strength. He 
is a member of Boy Scout Troop 162 and the Boy Scout honor society, 
Order of the Arrows. Justin's final project to qualify for Eagle Scout 
Rank was refinishing a portable water tank for the Pendleton County 
Emergency Services Department. Thanks to Justin's hard work, 
respondents will now have additional equipment that would otherwise 
have been unusable.
  Justin's contributions are not limited to his scouting activities; 
the high school junior is a stand out member of the Pendleton County 
High School football team and last fall was named all conference 
offensive lineman. In the off season, Justin throws shot put for the 
Cougars' track team. He is a member of the Fellowship of Christian 
Athletes and is an usher at Mt. Horeb United Methodist Church.
  I am pleased to recognize this young man who truly exhibits service 
to God and country and thank his parents for raising such a fine 
citizen. It is an honor to recognize the future community leaders like 
Justin Dahmer.
