Thus one would ask, "IS he an Eagle Scout?", not "WAS he?". Well, I guess it would be "was" in Harpo Marx's case, but everyone else in the quiz is still living. =) Just a quick comment: My husband is an Eagle Scout and he’s always pointing out to me that the rank, once gained, is held for life.

Who has their Gold Award/Eaglet/whatever name it went by when she got it? I'm about a month away from marrying an Eagle Scout. Hoping he can score better than I did on this! I would probably beat him on the Girl Scout one though. Can we get the female counterpart to this quiz? Who has their Gold Award/Eaglet/whatever name it went by when she got it?
