The
Rank of Eagle
The Rank of Eagle Scout is the highest honor a scout
could earn. Only 2% of those boys entering into the
scouting program earn this honor. It is not the
easiest rank to earn either, in order to achieve the
goals of an Eagle Scout one must show the ability to
be creative, leadership skills and a desire to
give without question. He must be able to put together
the resources necessary to fulfill whatever venture he
has chosen for his eagle project. The scout prepares
his application and plans, showing who, what, where,
and how his project is to be done. Most of the
knowledge necessary for this endeavor has been taught
right in the scouting program as he advanced through
the ranks, from Assistant Patrol Leader to Senior
Patrol Leader.
