Pack 78 Scouts Live History at "Old Ironsides"

Pack 78 scouts and their parents got a good dose of history with a visit to the USS Constitution on April 28. At the invitation of the US Navy, our scouts received a private tour of "Old Ironsides", the oldest floating warship in the world. Scouts learned about the construction, history, and function of the ship. Many scouts were interested in how the ship worked, how the crew lived and how the ship's "great guns" were manned and fired.

Scouts also visited the USS Constitution Museum, reviewing the history of the ship and her many battles, as well as a World War II vintage US Navy destroyer.

Many thanks go out to our scouts who were well behaved, listented intently to their tour guide and who asked many interesting and engaging question. Great job guys!
