  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Jeremiah Joseph Morgan, Jr. Jeremiah 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 1417, and 
earning the most prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
   Jeremiah has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Jeremiah 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, Jeremiah has 
contributed to his community through his Eagle Scout project. Jeremiah 
built a maintenance shed that houses lawn-care and other equipment that
