I was in the Boy Scouts in the 1960's and I recall thinking at the time that he was rolling in his grave even then.


I was in the Boy Scouts IN ENGLAND in the 1960's. British scouting uniforms rocked.. green berets and dark green shirts, with the fleur-de-lys prominently displayed.

And Clark's shoes brought out their "Animal Tracker" model with animal track soles and a compass hidden in a heel compartment which we all wore grin

I do recall being sadly disappointed with the plain khaki American scouting uniform and that non-functional fatigue cap.
