"Be Prepared... the meaning of the motto is that a scout must prepare himself by previous thinking out and practicing how to act on any accident or emergency so that he is never taken by surprise. A Scout knows exactly what to do when anything unexpected happens."
Robert Baden-Powell
A couple of years ago, I attended the "Eagle Scout" ceremony of my best friend's 18-year-old son. I was impressed with the goals and achievements of their program. Apparently, the movement still holds quite a bit of attraction for some of America's youngsters.
