As a service academy graduate, I was priveledged to count former boy scouts and eagle scouts as my classmates. I found these former scouts to be confident, courageous, intelligent and well equipped to become leaders in today's military as well as in the civilian world. Depsite the turmoil the Scouting programs have been through, I still see it as a very good opportunity for youngsters to learn the very skills highlighted in this article.Aug 8, 2007vdancer says:
I was a Girl Scout in two different towns growing up. I loved it. Scouting gave me exposure to the outdoors, music and songs of American and the world, a social circle of other girls and their families, and lots of fun doing community service and projects. Maybe it sounds crazy, but I loved the uniforms too...I thought they were beautiful! Maybe today's children are getting these experiences through other programs at school, home or the community - I certainly hope so! Jul 26, 2008musheer riaz says:
