Scouting gave me so much…and then the liberal activists infiltrated and ruined it.
I walked away when the openly gay leadership deal took hold, knew I wanted no part of it for sure when it became co-ed. it already had programs that were (venture/sea). Now it’s going to the alphabet scouts full of predators and turned into a sissy factory catered to the gays. BSA was a great thing especially for fatherless young men…now it’s just an abomination of it’s former self. Lord Powell would be rolling in his grave.
Oh yeah? I met the smoking hot 30 year old District Executive at my Eagle ceremony that took place when I was 18. Ended up banging her after she invited me to her office Christmas party. Dated her for the following three years.Arrow of Light

Between the teachings of LBP & Men like the Chief ( https://kcyesterday.com/articles/bartle ) aka the namesake of the Kansas City Chiefs… BSA turned boys, often lost fatherless boys into men with skills, integrity, and reverence.. things unfortunately the newest generation seriously is lacking in many cases.My son and a bunch of his friends are Eagles.
I served on the Troop Board for many years.
After I left, some pansy azz dad became Scout Master and ran the troop into the ground.
He actually cancelled a camp out due to the rain. FUCK! That's what Scouting WAS all about, teaching kids how to plow on through Any adversity. Yeah, not so much anymore.
Then they let a mom become Scout Master shortly after that.
We've come a long way since 1903...
"Returning as a hero from the Boer War, a British Army General, Robert S.S. Baden-Powell, discovered that boys in England had been using a manual he had written for training military guides and intelligence agents (“scouts”), Aids to Scouting. They called themselves “Boy Scouts”, because they were using the skills of scouts and they were boys… Baden-Powell realized that the methods he had used in training military scouts and organizing boys at the Siege of Mafeking during the Boer War could be used in a more formal way to train boys in citizenship, character and fitness."
We call that the “upper management exploration award”Oh yeah? I met the smoking hot 30 year old District Executive at my Eagle ceremony that took place when I was 18. Ended up banging her after she invited me to her office Christmas party. Dated her for the following three years.
I got some merit badges and shit before that too.
She was a high adventure camp, that's for sure.We call that the “upper management exploration award”
Same. Both boys are Eagles and was heavily involved. Now barely a mention. It is actually sad and embarrassing.
Only on the new puce and chartreuse uniforms with the floral tops?The Eagle Scout badge is the ONLY civilian thing you can put on a military uniform.
That used to say a LOT.
Today, with the current state of our military? I'm thinking it might not mean a whole lot.
The drag queen inclusivity badge will replace it…. Example: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTLX447Kv/The Eagle Scout badge is the ONLY civilian thing you can put on a military uniform.

It's a shame what has become of BSA. But it doesn't diminish the great memories friends and leaders that I met along the way to my eagle in the 80s.
Funny this thread popped up. Cleaning out tool box over weekend. View attachment 1370984
The backpack treks where my absolute favorite... I supposeIndeed. I have literally hundreds of camping and hiking trip memories over the thirteen years I spent in Scouts.
One of my Half Dome hikes including a week in the back county of Yosemite will forever be etched in my mind.
I wonder when the mom, that took over my troop, will lead the boys on a week long backpacking trip?
Anything is possible I suppose.
In 1972 BSA had membership of about 4.8 million scouts on a population of about 205 million.
By 2020 it was down to 760,000 on a population of 331 million.
Society has changed and the activities embraced by scouting are unfortunately no longer that popular.
Unfortunately BSA was dying a slow death on its own prior to Covid and prior to allowing females to join in 2019.
