You know, it's one thing to get every merit badge, but it's another thing to know every single one. Congratulations, bro, you deserve it. and yeah, i agree with everyone else. the first man to walk on the moon, was an eagle scout. about 50% of all presidents were eagle scouts. so dont diss it, it's an amazing opportunity. I have the most beautiful girlfriend. ever. and she respects me for being in boyscouts. so fuck haters.

its good to see a young person not giving into the sex saturated culture and actually enjoying the simple things in life.

@unphazed123 yeah, like the other person said, you can join a Venture Crew up until you are 21. However you can be an adult leader in a boy scout troop starting at age 18. I was in scouts as a kid and I am 26 now and I am now an adult leader. It still is just as fun.

@unphazed123 you can join a Venture Crew near you for at least another year. they do basically the same things as BSA but they are more high adventure based

[unphazed123]

@theDudeAbides1100 What happened? People decided to get off their ass, put down the Xbox for a little bit, and live. We get to go to Key West for 2 weeks, go camping when we want, run our own meetings, the list goes on. Don't be so one minded.
