  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Samuel Thomas. Samuel 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 404, and earning the most 
prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
  Samuel has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Samuel 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, Samuel has 
contributed to his community through his Eagle Scout project. Samuel 
completed a natural area for the Missouri Department of Conservation 
outdoor classroom.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Samuel for 
his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for his efforts 
put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle Scout.
