A mission or being an eagle scout would be likely be seen different by someone
who themselves did both, and someone who has no real clue of either.
Well, if you write 'mission' and assume they know what that means, I
wouldn't say that's particularly helpful. People who have been on
missions, for example, probably know that they can be very different
experiences depending on where you went, when you went, and who you
worked with. And people who haven't gone a mission might not really
know what good they could get out of you for it anyway.
But you could list your accomplishments in service projects, missions,
and other volunteer work if that experience would apply to the career.
Think of the problems you solved and the challenges you overcame, and
list those that would make you more valuable in your field.
As for discrimination, if someone's got a beef with RMs, they'd probably
figure it out sooner or later anyway. ;-)
