I think what makes the Eagle so special is the dedication
and committment required of a youth to meet all the
requirements, and the experience gained by doing so. An
Adult already has alot of experience to draw on, and many of
the requirements would be too easy for an adult. I think we
should leave it like it is. We could always set up a new
advancement program just for adults and call it the Turkey
badge :-)
