Saturday I attended an Eagle Court of Honor for 4 young men in a neighboring Troop. I signed off on all their project and did their Eagle Board of Reviews. When announcing their mentors, one of the boys said my name. I was completely shocked especially after talking about how I had asked him every time I saw him about his project and Eagle.
My brother in law received two of these pins and didn't bother to tell his wife when he returned home. Talk about a humble guy! I had to tell her he received these two pins for all of his hard work!
The ramblings of an ex BSA Varsity Team Coach on Scouting and specifically the Varsity program. My thoughts, ideas and concerns are in no way connected or shared in any form or fashion by the Boy Scouts of America or The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) who volutold me to serve as a Varsity Coach. Some personal rambling too........... (I am an Assistant Scoutmaster now that the Varsity Program has been murdered........)

Congratulations! It's great when boys recognize that we care. My one mentor pin is among my most prized awards.
It is a huge compliment but I think undeserved.
