RECOGNIZING EAGLE SCOUT DANIEL PAOLELLO
(Mr. VAN DREW asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. VAN DREW. Mr. Speaker, today, I recognize Daniel Paolello from
Mullica Hills in south Jersey on his attainment of an Eagle Scout rank.
Eagle Scout is the highest rank obtainable from the Boy Scouts of
America. Only a very small percentage of all Boy Scouts will ever make
it to this prestigious recognition.
Eagle Scouts continue to be more likely to dedicate their lives to
service throughout their entire lives, becoming future leaders in
military, business, or politics, and joining the ranks of other Eagle
Scouts like Neil Armstrong, Steven Spielberg, and Gerald Ford, just to
name a very few.
I was proud to attend Daniel's Court of Honor ceremony earlier this
month.
Mr. Speaker, I extend congratulations to Daniel, and we look forward
to big things from him in the future.

We all look for heroes. We look to Washington. We look to
celebrities. I know where my heroes are, and one of them, without a
doubt, is Daniel. May God bless him.
