Day 352 - Blue & Gold

I attended the Boy Scout Blue and Gold banquet tonight for Troop 449. This celebrates both Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts. Tonight, Sean put together a presentation showing his progress through Scouting and eventually achieving the rank of Eagle Scout. You can see his blue Eagle kerchief and sash with 28 merit badges. Yes, I'm very proud of him.

The picture in the lower left of the image is Collette's uncle, John Lomax May, who was also an Eagle Scout -- that's his sash with 21 merit badges. Collette never met him. He died at the age of 20 in the Battle of the Bulge in WWII.
