  Mr. GRAVES. Madam Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize Christopher 
Chase Parrish, 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 260, and in earning the most prestigious 
award of Eagle Scout.
  Christopher has been very active with his troop, participating in 
many Scout activities. Over the many years Christopher 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 Christopher 
Chase Parrish for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America 
and for his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of 
Eagle Scout.
