"My Eagle Scout Medal Is Worthless"


Recommended Posts

Before any of you complain about that title, just read the following and it will make sense. With the loss of both my mom and dad, I have been thinking about this. I bet at the end of this topic, you will agree with me.....

The title is eye-catching to say the least. The message rings very true. I imagine it will make the rounds and I will hear it at some Scout event someday. (probably use it myself sometime.) Thanks for the good word brother.

Beautiful sentiments! I have already begun to incorporate it in my mind for our next Eagle COH in January! I agree with Eagle1973, it would be good to get your name so we can credit you properly. Thanks for the input
