  Mr. GRAVES. Madam Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize Lawton Paul 
Huffman. Lawton is 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, Heart of America Council Troop 351, and 
earning the most prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
  Lawton has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
Scout activities. Over the four years Lawton has been involved with 
Scouting, he has not only earned numerous merit badges, but also the 
respect of his family, peers, and community. Most notably, Lawton 
became a Brotherhood member in the Order of the Arrow and earned the 
Religious award of God and Church. Lawton has also contributed to his 
community through his Eagle Scout project. Lawton worked with U.S. Navy 
Public Affairs in Hawaii and was selected to receive a relic from the 
U.S.S. Arizona. Lawton then constructed a new memorial to display the 
relic at Riverfront Park in Atchison, KS.
  Madam Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Lawton Paul 
Huffman for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for 
his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle 
Scout.
