WHEREAS,
Desmond Sherod Harris has attained the rank of Eagle Scout, the most
distinguished rank conferred by the Boy Scouts of America; and
WHEREAS,
a candidate for the most exceptional award in scouting must complete a rigorous
program of training and demonstrate his proficiency in selected scouting
techniques and attainment of the highest ideals of scouting; and

only one scout out of 97 ever reaches this lofty level of achievement, and
Desmond has ably demonstrated his aptitude and competency in mastering the
various special skills taught through the Boy Scout program; and
WHEREAS,
this outstanding young man has truly exhibited a commitment to scouting
principles, as demonstrated by his Eagle Scout project; and
WHEREAS,
in a world which consistently seems to accentuate the negative aspects of the
actions of young people, it is abundantly fitting and proper for this body to
recognize with particularity the outstanding accomplishments of this
individual.
NOW,
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES that the members of
this body commend Desmond Sherod Harris for his diligence and dedication in
pursuing the highest honor awarded by the Boy Scouts of America and congratulate
