Legion to fight ruling against National Scout Jamboree
Article Abstract:
A US District Court ruling, driven by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) against the Boy Scouts of America, would shut off Pentagon support for the National Boy Scout Jamboree conducted every four years at Fort A.P. Hill in Virginia. The ACLU has made Boys Scout the target due to a reference to God in the Scouting Oath and has urged the Department of Defense to withdraw its support for Scouting.
