Venturing and Venture Patrols

GMarmet@AOL.COM

Gentle people:

Please clear up a confusion on my part. Because I am old, I like to tie new
knowledge to old knowledge (it keeps me from crowding my already feeble old
mind). I have been laboring under the assumption that the relationship
between Venture Patrols in a Scout Troop and Venturing Units was the same as
the 1950's "in troop Exploring" and "Exploring Units". For the mathematically
minded:
VP : VU :: iTE : EU (I think I did that right).
However, I am begining to get the impression that that is not correct; that
there is more of a difference than simply Venturing Units get the girls, or
you have to be in a Venturing Unit to earn Ranger (and its stepping stones).

Please help an old man.

Yours in Scouting,

G. John Marmet
