The question I have on this leaders GMA is WHY???
 
In my opinion the purpose of leaders earning merits is two fold. One, to encourage the boys in their own merit pursuit. And two, to show their competence in the skills necessary to achieve the merit.
 
Otherwise for leaders to earn their own GMA would take away from their focus in working with the boys. We don't need any "look what I've done" leaders but those willing to serve.
 
Of course this is just IMHO

Subject: [RR] Leaders earning merts

All,
In reading what Duane posted about the rewrite something
came to mind. National is allowing leaders to earn merits.
If this be the case. Will there be a leaders version of the
GMA award? Maybe call it something like the LGMA.
The L would stand for Leaders.
