[philmont] Please Stop

At the risk of poo-pooing on some crews' favorite activity when hiking Trail Peak, I would like to say - Please Stop. Two crews from my area reported the smell of urine near the wing of the crashed B-24 Liberator was very evident.

It is my opinion that taking a pee off the wing of that airplane is the highest disrespect (next to another bodily function) that a Scout can give those men that died in service to the United State. Scouters that allow their crews to participate in such a foul act are just as guilty as the actual whizzers.

If anyone feels compelled to correct my over-the-top opinion on this issue, please don't bother. You will not change my mind.

Have a great time at the ranch this summer and please don't piss off the wing,

Scott Calkins
Major, USAF(Retired)
