                        Wednesday, May 10, 2006

  Mr. GRAVES. Mr. Speaker, I proudly rise to recognize Jared Goede of 
Kansas City, Missouri. Jared will be honored with the Billy Mitchell 
Award and Second Lieutenant Bars as a member of the Platte Valley Civil 
Air Patrol. He has been a member of the Civil Air Patrol since 2004 and 
has been involved in the color guard since 2005.
  As a member of the community, Jared has been active in 4-H, the North 
Kansas City High School Scholar Bowl Team, the American Heartland 
Theatre, and his church. Additionally, he has pursued many academic 
activities outside of his regular schoolwork. He has studied at Truman 
State University's Joseph Baldwin Academy for Eminent Young Scholars, 
studied hydrodynamics at a Westminster College summer camp, and 
participated in the Students in Academically Gifted Education program 
through the North Kansas City School District.
  Jared has already enlisted into the United States Army Reserves as a 
Civil Affairs Specialist. Upon graduating from North Kansas City High 
School in May of 2006, Jared will enter boot camp in June of 2006 and 
then defer his active duty status until he completes his college 
studies. He has been accepted to Missouri Western State University and 
plans to major in History and participate in the Reserve Officer 
Training Corps program.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in recognizing Jared Goede, 
an outstanding student from Kansas City, Missouri. His commitment to 
the community and desire to serve his country should be commended. I 
would like to express my gratitude to him for his achievements and I am 
honored to represent him in the United States Congress.
