  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Ryan Hosford. Ryan 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 395, and earning the most 
prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
  Ryan has been very active with his troop, participating in many scout 
activities. Over the many years Ryan has been involved with scouting, 
he has not only earned numerous merit badges, but also the respect of 
his family, peers, and community. Most notably, Ryan has contributed to 
his community through his Eagle Scout project.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Ryan Hosford
