Notable Eagle Scouts

Many Eagle Scouts have gone on to achieve amazing and extraordinary things throughout their lives.

Below is just a small sampling of a few noteworthy Eagle Scouts. Among them are three astronauts — but did you know? Of the 24 astronauts who traveled to the moon, 20 were Eagle Scouts, and 11 of the 12 men who walked on the moon earned the rank of Eagle Scout.

The first African American to travel to space is also an Eagle Scout.

These remarkable individuals exemplify the spirit of Scouting — demonstrating how the values and lessons learned on the Trail to Eagle can reach as far as the stars.
