Because, if the Scout did parts of the merit badge with the counselor in
camp, the THAT counselor should have filled in the grid on the back of the
merit badge card indicating which requirements, by number, had been
completed and initialed each one. That would then tell the new counselor
what has or has not been done.

The new counselor would still have a right to satisfy himself that these
requirements had, in fact, been completed.
