  Mr. GRAVES. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize Alexander J. 
McCurn of Kansas City, 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 261, and in 
earning the most prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
  Alexander has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Alexander has been involved with 
scouting, he has not only earned numerous merit badges, but also the 
respect of his family, peers, and community.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Alexander J. 
McCurn for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for 
his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle 
Scout.
