>>This kid has got character and guts which is something I do not believe I could say for the majority of you folks on this thread.

You need to get something straight: This "boy" or "kid" is no "boy." He turned 18, and that's why he's not a Boy Scout any longer. He applied to be an Adult Leader (ASM). His application was rejected. He was not "kicked out."

You may be right. It is my understanding that you cannot serve between the ages of 18 and 21 as this time is to be set aside for college.

Are you saying that this is a fabrication? For what purpose, in collusion with who, and to what end, other than the detriment I have described?

If he is 19 years old, he's a "kid" to me and I'm old enough to be his dad and then some.
