===Eagle Scout=== {{Main|Eagle Scout}} [[File:Scouting America Eagle Scout badge.png|thumb|The Eagle Scout rank badge.]] [[Eagle Scout (Boy Scouts of America)|Eagle Scout]] is the highest rank one can receive in Scouts BSA. Since its introduction in 1911, the Eagle Scout rank has been earned by more than two million youth. Requirements include earning at least 21 [[merit badge (Boy Scouts of America)|merit badges]] and demonstrating [[Scout Spirit]] through the Scout Oath and Law, service, and leadership, all before or by age 18. This includes an extensive service project that the Scout plans, organizes, leads, and manages. Eagle Scouts are presented with a [[medal]] and a [[badge]] that visibly recognizes the accomplishments of the Scout. Additional recognition can be earned through Eagle Palms, awarded for completing additional tenure, leadership, and merit badge requirements.<ref name="auto">{{Cite web|url=https://blog.scoutingmagazine.org/2018/02/08/famous-former-scouts/|title=110 Scouts who became famous (just in time for the BSA's 110th birthday)|first=Bryan|last=Wendell|date=February 8, 2018|website=Bryan on Scouting}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://nesa.org/for-eagle-scouts/famous-eagle-alumni/|title=Famous Eagle Alumni|website=The National Eagle Scout Association|access-date=August 1, 2020|archive-date=August 14, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200814004812/https://nesa.org/for-eagle-scouts/famous-eagle-alumni/|url-status=dead}}</ref>
