Scouts in Action

He saved everyone on the bus!


sia_pod_0108_200x148.jpgAs John Crandall, 13, and other students were riding the bus home from school, a large tree fell off the back of a truck ahead of them. The bus swerved and rolled over.

Many of the students were panicking and confused.


Listen as John describes what he did to get everyone off the bus in a true story of Scouts in Action.

    This is a great “Be Prepared” story! John Crandell did everything right, and his actions certainly do reflect credit upon the BSA. Way to go Scout!

    I’m so proud of these kinds of people. Just a person who feels like being heroic one day could make a difference to so many people. Way to shine, Scout.
