I find myself in the same corner as Doc again. (Yoikes!) Yes, the boy has earned the achievement. But this points out a problem that I have observed in Rangers over the years and that is a lack of review boards. I've always maintained that if Rangers used the Missionettes review board structure that we would have more solid knowledge, but probably fewer boys really advancing. And the existence of such boards would encourage boys, commanders and parents to more closely monitor sign-offs. So there you have the trade-off: easy signoff/no review and more advancements or real signoff/review board and fewer but more qualified advancements. There is always the possibility that the added challenge will encourage the boys...
