The Pentagon is now working to preserve its relationship with Scouting America after previously considering ending the decades-long partnership. This reversal comes months after reports surfaced about the military's plans to cut ties with the youth organization.
The U.S. Department of Defense is reversing course on its relationship with Scouting America, now working to preserve a partnership it had previously planned to terminate.
Earlier reports revealed the Pentagon was moving to end its long-standing connection with the youth organization formerly known as the Boy Scouts of America. However, recent developments show renewed efforts to maintain these institutional ties.
The military’s change in direction represents a significant shift in policy regarding its support for the scouting program, which has traditionally provided leadership development and outdoor education for American youth.
This partnership has historically included military personnel serving as scout leaders and the use of military facilities for scouting activities across the country.
