Alongside volunteers from all over the area, Troop 1 Narragansett was grateful for the opportunity yesterday to place American flags at the RI Veterans Cemetery. It’s always a remarkable morning of service in its scale. Starting at 8am there are no flags marking graves, but by 9:30 or so, they are placed at every grave as far as the eye can see.

While Memorial Day weekend marks the beginning of summer and brings a lot seasonal excitement, this time of reverent service reminds us to pause and reflect on the lives of all military service members who died serving our country and to remember those who love and miss them as well. We hope you enjoy your holiday weekend, and find some time for a moment of reverence for and remembrance of the people who have died in service to the United States. 🇺🇸

If you have a young person in your life who would benefit from joining a service minded, character building, leadership developing organization—we invite them to join our community of scouts. We would be glad to have more kids and families to join us in activities like this and more throughout the year. Email [email protected] for more information.

We had a great time celebrating one of our best volunteers, Mrs. Peggy Cunnie last night at the Southwest District Awards Dinner! Peggy certainly is so deserving of the Golden Sparkplug Award, because we couldn’t do anything we do without her! Peggy is pictured here with other awardees and also with her son, Owen, an Eagle Scout from our Troop. Congratulations! Thank you for your countless hours of service!

In this weather, we all could use a helping hand. Pictured here are some of Troop 1 Narragansett’s scouts and alumni doing good turns helping neighbors cleanup in the Blizzard aftermath. It is a great day to get out there and help your neighbor. Good job, Scouts!

New Patch Alert! Scouts, we challenge YOU! Once it’s safe to head outside after the blizzard, remember to do a Good Turn for your community.
Help elderly neighbors or neighbors who need assistance with shoveling, and don’t forget—if they have a fire hydrant, clear that too! 🚒
Snap a pic, share it on social, and tag us!

Unlike most American kids, 12-year-old Robert Wada participated in Boy Scouts behind a barbed wire fence at the Poston concentration camps in Arizona during World War II.

Wada and his family were among the more than 120,000 Japanese American people, most of them United States citizens, uprooted from West Coast regions during World War II after President Franklin Roosevelt issued Executive Order 9066 on February 19, 1942.

Under the constant gaze of armed guards, inmates started schools, newspapers, sports teams, theater groups, and other civic organizations.

When Wada and other boys at Poston decided to establish a Boy Scout troop, they designated themselves as “Troop 100” to honor the 100th Infantry Battalion, a U.S. combat unit comprised of mostly second-generation Japanese Americans. In this Boy Scout uniform in our National Museum of American History, Wada went camping, earned merit badges, and participated in parades honoring American soldiers departing for World War II.

As an adult, Wada enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserves and served as a tank crewman during the Korean War. He proudly participated in veterans' organizations until his death in 2023.
