I can't say that I can recall any details from my Eagle Board of Review. Heck, I can't recall any details from any of my Scout Boards of Reviews. That is, except for one question: what was the last good turn you did? And yeah, I got stumped on that question every time.
Last night, however, I got to experience an Eagle Board of review from the questioner's side. I participated in the eldest of the 4 Boys board of review. It was a quite surreal - here was a kid I've known since he was like 6 years old and now he's sitting in front of me as a man in the running for this prestigious award. It was hard to be anything but proud of him.
It was definitely a good feeling being back among guys in Scout uniforms. Ahhh, the good old days of being an irresponsible kid allowed to play with knives and fire. Good times, good times.
