Scout Oath And The Scout Law

“Leadership in Service” are the watchwords of the Vigil Honor, the highest level of membership in the Order of the Arrow, Scouting’s national honor society. Following nomination, a candidate for the Vigil Honor must undergo a solemn and secretive ceremony at a Scout camp in the pine woods of Bastrop, Texas. I, too, have kept the Vigil, and I will never forget it.

Now onto one particular point of the Scout Law. A Scout is Helpful. I believe this is the absolute most important point from the Scout Law. This is because from the very first breath you take as an infant, you will look out for yourself with a self-centered point of view. For it is human nature to preserve oneself. But a Scout has the challenge of putting others first despite his own needs. This is a great representation of the honor that is involved with being a Scout.

First, Scout demonstrates a vast amount of loyalty throughout the book. Sitting right next to her or relaxing in the next county, Scout defends her friends and family to the best of her ability showing those around her how much she cares for them; even if it means getting into a

Throughout To Kill a Mockingbird, Scout is honest. Scout is a tomboy at heart and isn’t afraid to show it, and doesn’t try to be someone else. On her first day of school she explains to her teacher who Walter Cunningham is, even though it gets her in trouble.

Since the very beginning, discrimination has been imminent and abundant. Whether it is telling someone to “man up,” or to “stop acting like a girl,” or making comments about race, it is there. It is the music we listen to, the books we read, the powerful people we listen to- bias, prejudice, it is all there- even in ourselves. To Kill a Mockingbird focuses on discrimination in multiple ways, as does The Help, but a few types of prejudice are imminent- mainly race and gender, even age, discrimination.

Scout can be seen as a product of her environment because she’s not acting like a lady. Scout is a tomboy she likes dressing and acting like a boy, the environment see that as “wrong”. Kids at Scouts school are intimidated by her physical strength, but she has to act “lady like”. Scout's aunt alexandra dislikes almost everything about Scout because she doesn't act “lady like”. Scout’s aunt alexandra is determined to make Scout more lady like, she tells scout to stop wearing breeches or pants “Aunt Alexandra was fanatical on the subject of my attire. I could not possible hope to be a lady if i wore breeches, when i said i could do nothing in a dress, she said i wasn’t supposed to be doing things that required pants” and start wearing dresses. Aunt alexandra wishes that Scout would

The Scout Executive of Southern Missouri presented me with a medal and a badge. The award recognized the accomplishments and requirements that an Eagle Scout fulfills. I accepted the award and took my seat. Once the applaud of my fellow scouts and friends died down, I thanked everybody for coming to recognize my accomplishment of becoming an Eagle Scout. I continued to express my gratitude to all the leaders and parents that made my time as a Boy Scout some of the best times I spent in the outdoors. I reflected over the many campouts I took when I was younger and did not yet possess the skills or the equipment that I have since gained. I concluded my speech by thanking the business that sponsored my final service project.

It’s five in the morning as I rise, throw on some layers and mentally prepare myself to stand out in the freezing cold till eleven handing out water and gatorade to runners. Growing up, I always had the values of service and leadership hardwired into my brain from my parents and the Boy Scouts because of getting involved with them so early in my life. Now that I am older, I am beyond grateful for this upbringing because they are two very important values that are often overlooked or misinterpreted by many people. My biggest display of these virtues was my Eagle Scout Project and the fundraising for it that I performed in my sophomore year.

One of the first lessons Scout learns is to be tolerant of other people. Walter Cunningham is described as having “looked as if he had been raised on fish food… had no colour in his face… and fingered the straps

A Soldiers’ moral demeanor must reflect beliefs and principles, not just fear of chastisement from each other. Over time, Soldiers adhere to dedication to the oath and the Army values because they want to live virtuously and truly confine in them because they feel it is a reflective of themselves and who they represent. When people believe and practice the Army values, they become

As a police officer you put your life on the line every day, you need to be willing to take risks sometimes be put at a disadvantage to protect the lives, defend civil rights and liberties, and they undergo risks and tolerate such inconveniences on behalf of strangers on a daily basis. As a result, police work has become one of the most prideful and selfless occupations in society. Making a difference in the quality of life of others is an opportunity that policing provides, and few other lines of work can offer. The Law Enforcement Oath of Honor as stated by the International Association of Chiefs of Police goes: “On my honor, 
I will never betray my badge, 
my integrity, my character, 
or the public trust. 
I will always have
the courage to hold myself
and others accountable for our actions. 
I will always uphold the constitution, my community, and the agency I serve.” (IACP) Before any officer takes the Law Enforcement Oath of Honor, one of the most important aspects is that they have a clear understanding of what the oath truly means. The oath is a somber pledge an officer makes when they sincerely intend to do what is said. There are nine parts to this oath, but there are three that stand out to me personally, the first being honor. Honor means that one 's word is given as a guarantee to serve and protect to the best of their ability. The second, integrity, acting the same that you would act behind closed doors or in public life. The third, is public trust, which you
