Was L. R. Hubbard really the youngest Eagle Scout?

I decided to take a look at the Church of Scientology's YouTube account and the featured video was on their founder L. R. Hubbard. I got to watching this and they stated that L. R. Hubbard was the youngest boy in American History to become an Eagle Scout. I really doubted this so I decided to do some digging, here's what I found.

These type of people destroy scouting. At 13 I barley had scout rank... Scouting is about building character and having Fun. Not going insane over who's the youngest eagle.

@TheReyreyspeak This isn't about who IS the youngest, its about who IS NOT the youngest yet claims to be.

make another video with the good ones :D

[batterez]

well, I'm uploading a video on LHR's military career, It's from the same featured video I used in this one. I laughed my ass off!

Stands up and applauds. Great research. Great contribution to ridding this planet of hubbardology, AKA the Bait Switch confidence trick-pyramid scheme, supported by the advertising corporations of the world. Maybe they're religions too. Ask the IRS. They do secret deals.

It's not "sexy" if Hubbard wasn't the first to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro. That's the problem with everything Hubbard actually did in his life up until the point of realizing that his writing skills could make him the demigod of the weak minded, none of it was sexy.

So what did Hubbard do with such a seemingly average upbringing, less than average war record, and bad grades in college? He made himself a PhD in nuclear physics with the stroke of a pen on a $cientology policy letter. It's BULLSHIT!

As an Eagle Scout it makes me ashamed that Ronny is one too. He is a stain on everything Scouting stands for.

the youngest was charles j whitman the texas sniper killer

@Andrewpuppi3 anyway, i am 3rd and my cousin is 4th overall according to the list online with l. ron hubbard as 7th i think. i only pursued finding this info out within the last few years out of curiousity. sorry it took you so long. you should have been in troop 5. best troop on this side of the mississippi river!

[rhay777]

@Andrewpuppi3 you are an idiot. i was 10 yrs old and had no intention of making it a contest to rush thru... i just attended EVERY summer and winter camp i could. sorry i excelled so fast, but i really dont think that a 10-12 yr old little boy is thinking about record books. it never even occurred to me.. this came up much later out of curiousity. i did it b/c i loved camping and the outdoors you nutsak. you are a loser and you sicken me. i was an eagle scout b/c i loved it. bottom line

[TheTotaldramaking]

impossible because of the time unless he past fifth grade at the age of 9 other then that he had to work on all those badges which means he either did nothing but scouting stuff all day then he couldnt have done it

@RockBottomBastard This is sad to read..."I hated every moment of it." This is not what scouting is all about.

Your Scoutmaster truly did you an disservice in not keeping you safe. Scouting is suppose to be a safe haven for young men. I am sorry you had a bad experience.

12 years old is too young. Not enough time to hone your leadership skills.

[RockBottomBastard]

Dang, I almost made it! I was 12 yrs 6 months and 6 days old, in 1993! It's quite an accomplishment for any age, but it is something special to get it at such a young age. Although I was super happy to get out of the Scouts at such a young age, because I hated every moment of it. I didn't form any friendships, I have no fond memories and it didn't prepare me for the future at all. Unfortunately I was stuck with a bunch of ignorant, spoiled, dumbass bullies, rednecks & hillbillies. It was awful.
