Re: Congratulations to EricH, Troop 4673's newest Eagle!

Nice work!!

If you're interested in learning more about famous Eagle Scouts and what it means to be an Eagle Scout, you may want to take a look at the book Legacy of Honor by Alvin Townley. The book includes profiles and experiences of a number of famous Eagle Scouts including former CIA director Robert Gates, Microsoft Founder Bill Gates, football coach Chan Gailey, and Apollo 13 Astronaut Captain James Lovell.

I was able to snag my copy for free (at an Eagle Scout Scholarship dinner), but it looks like it can be found on Amazon for under $17. Not too bad for a 300 page hard-cover book.

Unfortunately, I haven't had a chance to crack open my copy yet, but I have heard a number of very good things about the book from people who have.
