 Another of the Scouts was taking luggage from the top of a van to be searched when something startling happened."He hears a snap of a holster, turns around, and here's this agent, both hands on a loaded pistol, pointing at the young man's head," Fox explained. Words fail. |

| #2 Charles Vonderheid with the Mid-Iowa Council Boy Scouts of America said Troop 11 learned a valuable lesson. “We want to make sure they follow the rules. A Scout is a good citizen. It would be a great lesson in civics for that young man and that troop,” he said. Feckless Troop Leader Vanderheid can now issue Schutzstaffel merit badges to the entire troop. They've earned them. |
