    I'm sure there will be much debate about that one.

    A troop tradition. When a young man makes Eagle Scout the troop buys him a Buck knife. On one side is engraved "Once an Eagle always an Eagle" on the other side is his name and the date he officially became an Eagle.



    Clowning around a little. Make no mistake. That knife means a great deal to both of them. What you can't see is, my son has his strapped on already. Its under his right arm.

    For you Boy Scouts or Scout Leaders out there. The Flag is once again safe in its secret storage location. It is available for use in Boy Scout Ceremonies and Eagle Court of Honor ceremonies. You must reserve it in advance. The flag must be protected at all times, and can only be escorted and handled by an Eagle Scout.

    If you are interested in using the flag, I have the contact information.

    And for those that are interested, there is a book! It is titled "Threads of Honor" and it is available at Amazon.

    http://www.amazon.com/Threads-Honor-.../dp/0972807101

    I found an autographed copy for my son. He now has it with his Eagle stuff.





    … I felt the cartilage in my back stretching and it struck me that I had never stood so tall.that after twenty years in a military uniform, the proudest moment of my life had come while wearing a scoutmaster's uniform, standing beside that flag.
    Major William Tolbert

    (I have to agree with this. It was amazing.)


    This is an inspiring story that makes me proud to have been an astronaut, proud to be an American, and proud to be an Eagle Scout.

    When he wakes up with his intestines tied in a square knot, he'll know the power of the Eagle Scout.

    You'd be surprised how easily I could be persuaded!

    Knots are one of the things I excelled at the best in Scouting and am still well above average in. Now, it might take me just a wee bit longer to get a square knot out of my intestines (soft flesh is always more difficult).

    I'll give it some thought. Maybe after you get the flesh knots undone.
