  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Madam Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Brandon George Hecht. Brandon 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, Troop 332, and 
earning the most prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
  Brandon has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
Scout activities. Over the many years Brandon 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, Brandon has 
contributed to his community through his Eagle Scout project. Brandon 
designed and constructed an outdoor classroom for a local day care, 
providing an excellent opportunity for the students to learn about 
nature and the world around them.
  Madam Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Brandon 
George Hecht for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and 
for his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle 
Scout.
