  Mr. GRAVES. Madam Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize Blake 
Alexander McCarter, 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 145, and in earning the most 
prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
  Blake has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Blake has been involved with 
scouting, he has not only earned numerous merit badges, but also the 
respect of his family, peers, and community.
  Madam Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Blake 
Alexander McCarter for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of 
America and for his efforts put forth in achieving the highest 
distinction of Eagle Scout.
