Bill > HR75

This resolution commends Andrew Cockrell for achieving the rank of Eagle Scout, the highest rank in Boy Scouts of America, which requires earning at least 21 merit badges and demonstrating leadership, service, and outdoor skills. The resolution highlights Cockrell's membership in Boy Scouts of America Norwela Troop 10 and his specific accomplishment of directing the construction of a twenty-foot wooden bridge in the Kisatchie National Forest. It emphasizes that Cockrell embodies the twelve points of the Scout Law, including being trustworthy, loyal, helpful, and kind, and notes that he has earned over forty merit badges. The resolution also contextualizes his achievement by referencing other notable Eagle Scouts like Gerald R. Ford, Neil Armstrong, and Bill Gates, and underscores the Boy Scouts' century-long mission of preparing young people to make ethical and moral choices. Ultimately, the Louisiana House of Representatives expresses gratitude and respect for Cockrell's accomplishments, congratulates him and his troop, and wishes him future success.
