The job market is absolutely brutal right now. And when you’re someone like me, who doesn’t have a “bachelor’s degree” in the traditional sense, it can be tough to land that ever-elusive interview. I’m constantly thinking of new ways to at least give hiring managers a second of pause before they throw my resume in the trash. And I think I’ve got something, even if the lamest people on the planet will probably call it “stolen valor.” […]
You don’t even have to steal one from an actual Eagle Scout. They sell those at the Scout store. Be a lot easier. I mean an Eagle Scout is literally always prepared for anything. Including hand to hand combat.

Did you have a project in mind for it?
I don’t think I’ve ever been asked for proof of my eagle rank, so this would probably work
