This 1940 promotional film “The Scout Trail to Citizenship“ was produced by the Research Service Division of Program Boy Scouts of America. It looks at the benefits of Scouting for boys at all ages. It seeks to show Scouting as a way for boys to bond, accompany them as they grow up, and eventually turn them into upstanding Americans. The film goes through the different Boy Scout ranks and how these are achieved, as well as the different activities that can be covered with Scouting. It also highlights the larger support structure needed to organize these beneficial activities.
