From this point forward Michael’s accounts of his involvement becomes unclear. He talks about serving on many Advisory Councils and several years as a Member on Executive Boards. He did maintain himself as a registered Scouter at large.
1999 that he received a letter from the National Boy Scout Office congratulating him on 75 years of service to the Boy Scouts of America. Michael only counted his years as an adult leader. At this point he actually had 85 years of service as a youth and as an adult.
