Our scout troop was for handicapped. Half the boys were handicapped and the other half looked out for them. If you joined our troop, the first thing you had to get was all the first aid badges. Took well after I was out for the troop to get some of the badge requirements changed so the handicapped could earn them. There was a kid in the troop in a wheel chair that we took on 2 50 mile hikes so he could get the badges. He was so proud. His two older brothers were starters on the OU Sooners football team and you'd think his badges were better than that. None of his family members were in the troop or helped either. His Dad would just drop him off and leave him with us without his electric wheel chair.
