I'm sorry, but I think that your troop committee is way out of line in
establishing this policy for merit badges.

This policy adds to the requirements of the merit badge. Merit badge
"partials" are good until a scout is no longer a scout, i.e., until he is
18 years old. Neither you, the committee, nor your council has the
authority to add this requirement to any merit badge.
