Melrose
Boy Scout Troop 68
Eagle Scout
Hall Of Fame
The Eagle Scout is the highest rank
attainable by
a Boy Scout in America. The road which leads toward this rank is long
and
hard. There may be road blocks and obstacles that try to halt the
completion
of the rank. Time may run short. But the those who possess strong will
and desire will complete the journey and prove they are worthy of the
Eagle
Rank.
Melrose Troop 68 has several Scouts who
have earned
this distinction. This page is dedicated to one of them, their
accomplishments,
and to all Eagle Scouts from across the country.
