Eagle Honor Roll
The Eagle Scout is the highest rank attainable in the Boy Scouting program. Because Boy Scout ranks are awarded by merit, only approximately 5.7% of all Boy Scouts ever put forth the effort required to complete the Eagle requirement. Since its introduction in 1911, the Eagle Scout rank has been earned by more than 2 million young people. The title of Eagle Scout is held for life, thus giving rise to the phrase “Once an Eagle, always an Eagle”.
Requirements include earning at least 21 merit badges and demonstrating Scout Spirit through the Boy Scout Oath and Law, service, and leadership. This includes an extensive service project that the Scout plans, organizes, leads, and manages. Eagle Scouts are presented with a medal and a badge that visibly recognizes the accomplishments of the Scout. Additional recognition can be earned through Eagle Palms, awarded for completing additional tenure, leadership, and merit badge requirements.
These are the names of the young men and women who have earned the rank of Eagle Scout while in Troop # 279 in Reynoldsburg, Ohio. Since the mid 1970s, Troop 279 has developed over 123 Eagles, with 72 of them under the current Scoutmaster.
