Nope the Boy-scouts never tolerated practices against the teachings of God, or individuals potently dangerous to kids.
(I was a Star Scout)
Theses people were either deceiving the Boy scouts of America or they were deceiving themselves either way they did not deserve their medal. They can’t possibly have not known about the position of the Boy Scouts of America. No girls and no openly homosexual scout or scout masters.
I think some become Eagle Scouts, solely because they think it’ll look good on a resume.
