• 1. Be active in your troop and patrol for at least 3 months after becoming an Eagle Scout or after award of last Palm.
• 2. Demonstrate Scout spirit by living the Scout Oath (Promise) and Scout Law in your everyday life.

Merit badges earned any time since becoming a Boy Scout may be used to meet this requirement.

You may wear only the proper combination of Palms for the number of merit badges you earned beyond the rank of Eagle:
- The Bronze Palm represents 5 merit badges.

- The Silver Palm represents 15 merit badges.
* Palms are not considered ranks by BSA but serve as a testiment of merit badge achievement beyond reaching the rank of Eagle Scout. To reach 20 palms, in addition to earning all 121 Merit Badges, a Scout must pass his Eagle Scout Board of Review no later than the day before his 13th Birthday, then pass each of the 20 subsequent Eagle Palm Boards of Review exactly 3 months after the preceding Board of Review, in order to complete all tenure requirements before his 18th birthday.
