  1. Current Boy Scout Rank Structure • So, what were the original ranks and in what order did they first appear?

  2. The original order of ranks • The earliest Scouts could earn only 3 ranks: Tenderfoot, Second Class, and First Class, which covered basic Scouting skills. The BSA soon added 3 higher ranks to recognize First Class Scouts who earned merit badges: Life (5 merit badges), Star (10 merit badges), and Eagle (21 merit badges). In 1924, Star was placed before Life (because the 5 points of a star could represent 5 merit badges).
