Whereas The Military Order of the World Wars and the Boy Scouts of America have agreed to initiate a plan of cooperation to promote traditional family values to America's youth; and

Whereas The Military Order of the World Wars will participate in Scouting through assistance with units, districts, and councils, in community projects; merit badge programs; and special recognition of Eagle Scouts; and

Whereas The Military Order of the World Wars will endeavor to establish, strengthen, and expand its relationship with the Boy Scouts of America, and support mutually beneficial programs: Now, therefore, be it

Resolved That this resolution of cooperation will initiate all efforts to encourage and expand the involvement of The Military Order of the World Wars in support of the Boy Scouts of America toward our mutual goals for a better America.
