  Mr. GRAVES. Madam Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize Byron 
Pendleton III of Gladstone, Missouri. Byron is 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 1354, and 
earning the most prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
   Byron has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Byron 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 Byron 
Pendleton III for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America 
and for his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of 
Eagle Scout.
