  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Jaxon Riley Harvey. Jaxon 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 309, and 
earning the most prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
   Jaxon has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Jaxon 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, Jaxon has 
led his troop as Patrol Leader. Jaxon has also contributed to his 
community through his Eagle Scout project. Jaxon organized and led the 
pouring of a concrete pad for a picnic shelter at his church that 
another Eagle Scout was building.
   Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Jaxon Riley 
Harvey for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for 
his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle 
Scout.
