Scout This Out- 80-yr-old Eagle

 

One of New Jersey's newest Eagle Scouts is also the state's oldest. Al Hanson, 80, who missed his initiation when, at age 17, he went off to fight in World War II, was honored last week by a troop in his hometown of Barnegat. "I'm not that young anymore, but it's a great honor and the boys enjoyed it, and I enjoyed it too," Hanson said.

Well, then there should be hope for getting my Wood Badge woggles, beads and such. I took the Wood Badge course in 1985, and completed all the requirements on my ticket, but didn't get the award before leaving Scouting in 1987 or so.

 

Last year I signed on again. I think I'll talk to the District Training Chair about this at our District picnic in July!
