  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Fletcher Grant Hoke. Fletcher 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 247, and 
earning the most prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
   Fletcher has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Fletcher 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, Fletcher has 
earned the rank of Warrior in the Tribe of Mic-O-Say while serving as 
his troop's Patrol Leader. Fletcher has also contributed to his 
community through his Eagle Scout project. Fletcher extended a path 
towards the Butterfly Garden at Hodge Park Living History Museum in 
Kansas City, Missouri, making it more easily accessible.
   Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Fletcher 
Grant Hoke for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and 
for his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle 
Scout.
