                      Wednesday, October 21, 2015

  Mr. SMITH of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Gideon R. 
Brady from St. James, Missouri for his achievements as a cadet in the 
Civil Air Patrol. Gideon is set to receive the General Billy Mitchell 
Award for his service, one of the most prestigious honors that a cadet 
can earn. This award is only achieved after passing comprehensive 
leadership and aerospace exams, as well as a strenuous physical fitness 
test.
  Gideon began his service in the Civil Air Patrol in 2013 with a deep 
interest in aerospace and rockets. An emphasis on service runs in 
Gideon's family, as his father Terry is a Chaplain in the Civil Air 
Patrol and proudly guides him as he progresses through the ranks.
  Gideon has proven himself to be an exemplary cadet and it is my 
pleasure to recognize him before the United States House of 
Representatives.
