Ethan Draddy's insight:

“American Leadership is vital to peace and prosperity and the advancement of democracy in the world, and that requires having strong leaders. And I don’t think there’s any organization in the world, certainly not in the United States, that better prepares young men for leadership in this country than the Boy Scouts of America – in teaching leadership skills, in teaching values, in teaching importance of standing up for what’s right.”

 

-          Dr. Robert Gates, BSA national president

Chancellor, College of William and Mary and former U.S. Secretary of Defense
