  Mr. GRAVES. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize Nicholas W. 
Kreeger of Kearney, Missouri, 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 397, and in 
earning the most prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
  Nick has been very active with his troop, participating in many scout 
activities. Over the thirteen years Nick has been involved with 
scouting, he has held numerous leadership positions, serving as Den 
Chief, Patrol Leader, and Senior Patrol Leader. Nick attended H. Roe 
Bartle Camp for five years, becoming a member of the Tribe of Mic-O-
Say. He was elected to the Order of the Arrow in 1997, Ordeal in 1997, 
and Brotherhood in 1998.
  For his Eagle Scout project, Nick rebuilt a sidewalk at the daycare 
of the First Christian Church in Kearney.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Nicholas W. 
Kreeger for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for 
his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle 
Scout.
