  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Boone Evans. Boone 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 376, and earning the most 
prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
   Boone has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Boone 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, Boone has 
led his troop as the Senior Patrol Leader, earned the rank of 
Firebuilder in the Tribe of Mic-O-Say, and has become a Brotherhood 
member of the Order of the Arrow. Boone has also contributed to his 
community through his Eagle Scout project.
   Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Boone Evans 
for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for his 
efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle Scout.
