Madam Speaker, today, I recognize Andrew Rock from south New Jersey on his attainment of the Eagle Scout rank. Eagle Scout is the highest rank attainable from the Boy Scouts of America. Only 4 percent of Boy Scouts ever achieve this prestigious recognition. Eagle Scouts are more likely to dedicate their life to service of all kinds, becoming future leaders in military, business, or politics. I was proud to attend Andrew's beautiful outdoor ceremony on the lake this past November. The ceremony also highlighted the beautiful traditions of the American Indian people. Madam Speaker, I congratulate Andrew. We look forward to big things from him in the future. I am proud of him; south Jersey is proud of him; and the United States of America is proud of him. ____________________
