  Mr. GRAVES. Madam Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize Damon Joseph 
Arredondo, 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 261, and in earning the most prestigious 
award of Eagle Scout.
  Damon has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
Scout activities. Over the many years Damon 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 Damon 
Joseph Arredondo for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America 
and for his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of 
Eagle Scout.
