Another Iraq Council Created by U.S.A.
Posted by admin under: International .
Sometimes I wonder how I manage to get both socks on in the morning. AskAndy noted that another Iraq Scouting council has been started up with the help of US service personnel. Victory Base Council has been operating since April, 2008. You’d think with as interested in the Iraq Scouting movement as I’ve been I would have noticed something like an entire council springing up, but it got past me.
The Always Exciting String Burn
The page has a lot of great pictures and even an on-line store in case you want to buy a Green Zone Council or Victory Base Council patch. It might be a good investment. When our troop levels are no longer needed in the size they are now things like Green Zone and Victory Base will probably go away and those areas will inevitably be merged into a Baghdad council making the old patches collectors items. They also have t-shirts for purchase. Wow. Santa really has a lot of stuff to carry to my house for Christmas.

I was looking forward to participating with Victory Base Council when I am in Iraq, however I just found out I will no longer be stationed Camp Victory. Oh well, sounds like a great program.

I’m still in the National Guard. We are scheduled to deploy in 2009. Thanks for your support, it is appreciated.
