The rank of Eagle Scout is earned by a Boy Scout who has been a Life Scout for at least six months, earns a minimum of 21 merit badges, demonstrates Scout Spirit, and demonstrates leadership in the troop, team, crew or ship. He must plan, develop, and lead a major community service project— the Eagle Project — that demonstrates both leadership and a commitment to duty.
