   Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Madam Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
William Thomsen. William 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 1214, and 
earning the most prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
  William has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years William has been involved with 
scouting, he has not only earned 38 merit badges, but also the respect 
of his family, peers, and community. William has achieved much as a 
scout, having achieved the ranks of Patrol Leader, Assistant Senior 
Patrol Leader, and Senior Patrol Leader. William has also contributed 
to his community through his Eagle Scout project. William's project saw 
him plant trees in a neighborhood park, an excellent way to provide 
upkeep for his community.
  Madam Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending William 
Thomsen for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America, and for 
his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle 
Scout.
