  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Andrew Tully. Andrew 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 414, and earning the most 
prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
  Andrew has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Andrew 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, Andrew has 
earned the rank of Warrior in the Tribe of Mic-O-Say and the God and 
Country Award. Andrew has also contributed to his community through his 
Eagle Scout project. Andrew completed many renovations at the First 
Baptist Church of Bogard, Missouri, including a utility room, 
handrails, enclosed an exterior staircase, and other small projects to 
help congregants enter and use the church facility.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Andrew Tully 
for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for his 
efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle Scout.
