The handbook states "A Royal Ranger cannot work on
the requirements of the next higher outpost gourp until he is eligible for
that required age/grade level."
If the Ranger has finished all
requirements of an age group (including Gold Track), is he not then eligible
to begin working on the next higher age group? Is age alone to be our
deciding factor?
If he cannot, then how are we getting GMA's at such a
young age? And, what are we to do with those boys that do finish an age
group early?
I'm not trying to upset the
proverbial apple cart, but these are problems that have plagued Rangers since
its inception. Our Ranger manuals are for direction, not
absolutes.
