mrkstvns 485 Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 A New York scout with non-verbal autism was able to earn his Eagle rank at age 21. (Exceptions to the usual age 18 limit are sometimes allowed for disabled scouts, and there have been examples of some young men completing their Eagle at age 30 or later.)

Cleveland Rocks 75 Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 He's actually not from New York, but from outside Cleveland, Ohio. It just got picked from the wire by the Daily News. Still a great story, though. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
