  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Madam Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Brandon Jacob. Brandon 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 1376, and earning the most 
prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
   Brandon has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Brandon 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, Brandon has 
led his troop as the Assistant Senior Patrol Leader, become an Ordeal 
member of the Order of the Arrow, and holds the rank of Warrior in the 
Tribe of Mic-O-Say. Brandon has also contributed to his community 
through his Eagle Scout project. Brandon built storage shelving for the 
KC Pet Project animal shelter in Kansas City, Missouri.
   Madam Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Brandon 
Jacob for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for 
his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle 
Scout.
