IAmA Eagle scout. My personal biggest achievement in life so far.

I really just wanted to tell someone I finally got it after working towards it for seven years. Also, I have come to learn that's it's kind of a big deal so, naturally, I'm going to post it on reddit. Hope you all enjoy.
Edit: Yes I know that a LOT of people do not agree with scouting, and let me remind you that one does not have to believe or support EVERY aspect of an organization in order to gain their own sense of personal achievement within that organisation. I am atheist, and do not know of, nor care to know anything related to the role of the government in scouting. All that I know is that there have been things in scouting happen on the national level that some people do not agree with, and that's not my problem. I joined my local boy scout troop because I enjoy the outdoors, camping and hiking, and feeling accomplished, which scouting has provided me with for years. If you think scouting is a bad thing, try getting involved and learning what they are really all about, and I think you will change your mind.
