On my Honor
I will do my best
To do my Duty
For my God and Country,
To obey the Scout Law.
To help other people at all times,
And to keep myself
Physically strong,
MENTALLY AWAKE and
MORALLY STRAIGHT

That’s the Scout Oath. Not much room for buggering reprobates in those lines.

The only solution to this “ tourde” that keeps popping up in the punch bowl is......Scouts out of the United Way; United Way OUT OF THE SCOUTS!

It’s nice to read that some institutions cannot be railroaded into doing what is politically correct,but basically wrong.

I have a slightly different version, with different punctuation (exact from the 1948 edition, Handbook for Boys)

The Scout Oath or Promise

On my honor I will do my best:
To do my duty to God and my country, and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep my self physically strong, mentally awake,
and morally straight.
