General Schwarzkopf:
My name is Kim Walker, Advancement Chairman for Troop 123, within the Longhorn Council, in the Boy Scouts of America. I am proud to inform you that my son, Austin Walker, who has been a member of Troop 123, in Flower Mound, Texas, for the past three and a half years, achieved the rank of Eagle Scout, Scouting’s highest rank, on March 12, 2007.
Austin’s Eagle Project was to help organize his Choir Director’s office/storage facility/practice room at Lamar Middle School in Flower Mound, Texas. He did this by building a storage cubby and a massive, eight drawer, storage unit, and then helping his teacher organize her office.
In the near future we will be conducting his Eagle Court of Honor. Would you please be so kind as to send this worthy Eagle Scout a letter of congratulations, along with any other items you wish to be presented to him during his Court of Honor? We will see that it is presented to Austin as a permanent reminder of the importance of his achievement. I am sure that Austin will be proud to receive an acknowledgement from you.
In order that we might compile all of his recognition letters/certificates/items into a special presentation album, we would appreciate it if you would send your correspondence to:

Austin’s steady, persistent progress through the ranks to achieve this prestigious award demonstrates his determination to prepare himself for a meaningful, productive role in society. His exemplary performance in Scouting will serve as a beacon to those Scouts who follow him.
Thank you very much for taking time from your extremely busy work schedule to help this community and this unit recognize the personal achievement and service of Eagle Scout Walker.
Yours in Scouting,
Kim Walker
Advancement Chairman
Troop 123
