Medal of Merit

Has performed some outstanding act of service of an exceptional character putting into practice learned skills and/or demonstrating Scouting ideals. Such action need not necessarily be a rescue or involve risk to self.

None of the above awards will be considered for what would be normally expected acts of behavior. The ordinary use of first aid or other skills that would be normally expected of a person who has had training in those skills would not qualify a person for recognition.   However, the people use of such skills under extraordinary circumstances could meet the criteria for recognition.
