  The First Boy Scout Handbook describes anyone worthy of the Eagle Scout Award as "the all-round perfect scout". That is a very demanding standard indeed, and a worthy goal. Striving to become an Eagle Scout will require your best efforts to master the skills of leadership, service, and outdoor know-how, and to practice good citizenship and ethical behavior of the highest order. The long trail to Eagle is full of opportunities for you to learn, to lead, to listen, and to teach. Along the way and throughout your life, the rewards from earning the Eagle Scout Award will be great.
NOTE:   All requirements for Eagle Scout must be completed before a candidate's 18th birthday.

Fewer than 4 percent of all Scouts earn the Eagle rank!

   AFTER BECOMING AN EAGLE SCOUT, you will certainly want to continue taking part in activities with your troop, and you may continue earning merit badges. The BSA recognizes achievements beyond the Eagle Scout rank by awarding Eagle Palms. There are three Palms: Bronze, Gold, and Silver. Scouts who earn three Palms may continue to earn additional Palms in the same order - bronze, gold, and silver. All requirements for Eagle Palms must be completed before a candidate's 18th birthday.

Recently, one scout completed his project which was very interesting. He spent 3 months working in verious area of Robins AFB hospital. Josh had a lot of fun, hard work, and learned many aspects of the medical field. He also learned how the military practices for medical retrival in the combat zone.
