What does being an Eagle Scout mean to you? It means a sense of pride and accomplishment that I have achieved such an honorable rank in Scouting.

How did earning the rank prepare you for the future? It gave me the opportunity to make mistakes. When I was working on my project I made mistakes assembling and with supply numbers. By making mistakes I learned how to overcome and fix mistakes.

What advice would you give to younger Scouts who aspire to become Eagle Scouts? Make sure to stick with the program. When doing your project make sure you have enough time, so you are not rushing to complete it.
