Today marks the 98th anniversary of the Boy Scouts of America- just one of the few good things left in the world that are older than John R Wooden.
I am a proud Eagle Scout myself, and owe some of my fondest moments to the adventures of scouting…I just ask that my mother doesn’t digs up any old photos of me in those daisy-duke shorts.
Here is a list of famous Eagle Scouts thanks to Wikipedia
A few of the greats include:
- Michael Bloomberg (Mayor of NY city)
- Justice Stephen Breyer (Supreme Court)
- Clive Cussler (Writer)
- President Gerald Ford Jr
- Steve Fosset (Aviator)
- Dick Gephardt (former Congressmen and Presidential Candidate-D)
- Kevin Rose (founder of Digg.com)
- Steven Spielberg (Film Director)
- Sam Walton (founder of Wal-Mart)
Of few others: (not so great but also worth mentioning)
- Mark Madsen (NBA Center/ Bad dancer)
- Michael Moore (Lunatic Liberal)
- L Ron Hubbard (Cult Leader)
- Marion S Barry (corrupt Mayor of Washington DC)
