[Bobwhite Blather] Prepared for life: Not just a motto

[Bobwhite Blather Scouting Blog]

There's a new item at Bobwhite Blather: 'Prepared for life: Not just a motto'

The Scout motto - Be Prepared - has been with us since the beginning, when

throw their way. It came from his days as a military leader, training his
soldiers to be ready both in battle and in peacetime. When asked the meaning of
