  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Andrew R. Hoog. 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 1261, 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 
contributed to his community through his Eagle Scout project.
   Mr. Speaker, I ask you to join me in commending Andrew R. Hoog for 
his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for his efforts 
put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle Scout.
