Eagle Scout Joshua Plum Honored in Hanover Tp

Joshua Plum honored by Chairman John Diacogiannis
Becoming an Eagle Scout is no easy feat. The successful applicant must earn 22 merit badges and complete an extensive service project Joshua Alan Plum, now 18 and a recent Liberty High School grad, started working on his Eagle in the 5th grade.

Plum officially received his Eagle award earlier this month during an Eagle Proclamation Ceremony conducted by Troop 302 at Bethlehem's First Presbyterian Church. He was also honored by Hanover Township's Board of Supervisors at their October 13 meeting for his "dedication and devotion in preserving the finest virtues of American life."

They also declared Friday, October 16, 2015, as Joshua Plum Day.

"He came a long way," said his proud father, Jeff Plum.

Joshua's next challenge is the United States Marines. He starts boot camp on December 7, Pearl Harbor Day.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
