Editing Merit badge (section)

==Historical program==
Offered only in 2010, the Historical Merit Badge program, part of the [[Boy Scouts of America centennial]], allowed Scouts to earn the discontinued Carpentry, Pathfinding, Signalling, and Tracking (originally called Stalking) merit badges. The patches for these historical merit badges are distinguished by a gold ring on the outside edge. All were based on merit badges that were among the original 57 issued in 1911.<ref>{{cite journal|url=http://blog.scoutingmagazine.org/2010/01/historical-merit-badges-help-boy-scouts-celebrate-scoutings-past.html |title=Historical merit badges help Boy Scouts celebrate Scouting's past |date=January 12, 2010 |journal=Scouting |publisher=Boy Scouts of America |access-date=January 13, 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100115072250/http://blog.scoutingmagazine.org/2010/01/historical-merit-badges-help-boy-scouts-celebrate-scoutings-past.html |archive-date=January 15, 2010 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.usscouts.org/usscouts/mb/mb141.asp|title=Historic Signaling Merit Badge|website=www.usscouts.org}}</ref>
