*Yes... it might just be a "Radical new thought"
I'm about to craw way out on a "limb" and tell you that
in my opinion the "integrity factor" of Ranger advancements is
compromised by no accountability beyond the sign-off of
a "Commander".
Many USA Commanders find their outpost do not achieve,
and sometimes "prime the pump" by holding merit classes or
skills features where handbooks are signed off without the
interchange of social mentioning desired.
Some "Commanders" hold that the requirements are flexible
to any standard they choose, with the object of advancing
the boys to a major goal... like Mt. Man or FCF eligibility
without the boys showing any retentive learning or leadership.
Their may be a compeling reason for this.... that the overall
"achievement trail" is not thought to be a primary "thing" but
rather, attendence and openess to "ministry" is...
Thoughts?
