The U.S. Navy needs more than 140,000 skilled workers in the next decade to build and sustain its fleet of nuclear-powered submarines - and, your Scout could be part of that mission. ⚓ Through programs like the Maritime Industrial Base Program and BlueForge Alliance, Scouts are being introduced to high-demand career paths in welding, engineering, robotics and more. These aren't just Merit Badges - they're building blocks for the future of America’s national defense. From the workbench to the waterfront, the skills Scouts develop now help prepare them for real-world challenges - and opportunities - tomorrow. In #STEM and beyond, Scouting continues to shape our future leaders, innovators and builders. Want to see how you - or your Scout - can help power the future...literally? Check out the full story and discover how #ScoutingAmerica is preparing the next generation of submarine builders. (fb)
