  Mr. GRAVES. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize Robert Hill, 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 249, and in earning the most prestigious award of 
Eagle Scout. Robert achieved the rank of Eagle Scout on April 7, 2004 
and will be recognized at an Eagle Scout Court of Honor this November.
  Robert has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Robert has been involved with 
scouting, he has not only earned numerous merit badges, but the respect 
of his family, peers, and community.
  For his Eagle Scout Project, Robert organized a the clean up and 
repair of a facility used by law enforcement officers for training 
exercises at Weston Bend State Park.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Robert Hill 
for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for his 
efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle Scout.
