Re: Congratulations to EricH, Troop 4673's newest Eagle!
I can think of a few off the top of my head: Neil Armstrong, Steven Spielberg, Bill Gates, Robert Gates, Gerald Ford. There's got to be more somewhere...

Re: Congratulations to EricH, Troop 4673's newest Eagle!
Congratulations Eric!
Eagle is a great accomplishment, I am personally a scout, who did not make Eagle. I know how hard it is to get it, I was really close but i ran out of time. I am personally spending my summer working at Custaloga Town a local scout camp, and even though i didn't get Eagle I want to help other do what i didn't. Again Congrats, and good luck to any other Scouts that are trying for Eagle. |

Re: Congratulations to EricH, Troop 4673's newest Eagle!
FIRST seems to have a plethora of Eagle Scouts! I wonder if it has to do anything with the reckless disregard of free time and how much we enjoy fire... probably. I'm actually currently working on my 3rd palm! Gratz Eric!

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. |
