  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Kevin Kopp. Kevin 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 1412, and earning the most 
prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
  Kevin has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Kevin has been involved with 
scouting, he has not only earned 31 merit badges, but also the respect 
of his family, peers, and community. Most notably, Kevin served as his 
troop's Patrol Leader and Bugler. Kevin also contributed to his 
community through his Eagle Scout project. Kevin restored a walking 
trail around St. Luke's Northland Hospital in Smithville, Missouri.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Kevin Kopp 
for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for his 
efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle Scout.
