  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Tristan Michael Ott. Tristan 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 261, and 
earning the most prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
   Tristan has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Tristan 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, Tristan has 
earned the rank of Brave in the Tribe of Mic-O-Say and became a 
Brotherhood Member of the Order of the Arrow. Tristan has also 
contributed to his community through his Eagle Scout project. Tristan 
completed a much needed landscaping project at St. Therese School in 
Kansas City, Missouri.
   Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Tristan 
Michael Ott for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and 
for his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle 
Scout.
