  Mr. GRAVES. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize Andrew James 
Miller, 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 395, and in earning the most prestigious 
award of Eagle Scout.
  Andrew has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. He has served as a quartermaster and assistant senior 
patrol leader and achieved the rank of Brotherhood in the Order of the 
Arrow and Firebuilder in the Tribe of Mic-O-Say. Over the many years 
Andrew has been involved with scouting, he has not only earned numerous 
merit badges, but also the respect of his family, peers, and community.
  For his Eagle Scout Service Project, Andrew installed a fire ring and 
five benches at the Heartland Presbyterian Youth Camp for the use and 
enjoyment of all of the visitors.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Andrew James 
Miller for his accomplishment with the Boy Scouts of America and for 
his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle 
Scout.
