[[Image:CFJ3.jpg|70px|right|Eagle Scout medal]] This '''list of notable Eagle Scouts''' includes men who have earned the highest rank attainable in the [[Boy Scouts (Boy Scouts of America)|Boy Scouts of America]] (BSA). Since it was first awarded in 1912, [[Eagle Scout (Boy Scouts of America)|Eagle Scout]] has been earned by more than one and a half million young men.{{cite web |url=http://www.scouting.org/factsheets/02-516.html |title=Eagle Scouts |accessdate=2006-11-07 |author= |authorlink= |coauthors= |date= |format= |work=Fact Sheets |publisher=Boy Scouts of America |pages= |language= |archiveurl= |archivedate= |quote= }} Current requirements include earning a number of [[merit badges]] and demonstration of [[Scout Spirit]], service and leadership. Eagle Scouts are presented with a medal and badge that visibly recognizes the accomplishments of the Scout. Additional recognition can be earned through Eagle Palms, awarded for completing additional tenure, leadership and merit badge requirements. The [[Distinguished Eagle Scout Award]] (DESA), is a special award, awarded only to [[Eagle Scout (Boy Scouts of America)|Eagle Scouts]], for distinguished service in his profession and to the community for a period of at least twenty-five years after earning the Eagle Scout rank. Since its introduction in 1969 by the [[National Eagle Scout Association]], the DESA has been awarded to just under 2000 Eagle Scouts.{{cite web | author = | year = | url = http://members.cox.net/scouting179/Eagle%20Distinguished.htm | title = Distinguished Eagle Scouts | format = | work = | publisher = Troop & Pack 179 | accessdate = 2006-03-02}} {| id="toc" class="toc" summary="Contents" ! {{MediaWiki:Toc}} |-m | align="center" | [[#A|A]] [[#B|B]] [[#C|C]] [[#D|D]] [[#E|E]] [[#F|F]] [[#G|G]] [[#H|H]] [[#I|I]] [[#J|J]] [[#K|K]] [[#L|L]] [[#M|M]] [[#N|N]] [[#O|O]] [[#P|P]] [[#Q|Q]] [[#R|R]] [[#S|S]] [[#T|T]] [[#U|U]] [[#V|V]] [[#W|W]] [[#X|X]] [[#Y|Y]] [[#Z|Z]] __NOTOC__ [[#Incorrectly regarded as Eagle Scout|Incorrectly regarded as Eagle Scout]] — [[#See also|See also]] — [[#References|References]] |} *[[Image:Gold Eagle17x15.png]] Indicates recipients of the Distinguished Eagle Scout Award. ===A=== [[Image:Neil Armstrong pose.jpg|90px|thumb|Neil Armstrong]] *[[Gary Ackerman]]; [[United States House of Representatives|Representative]] from [[New York]], serving twelfth term.{{cite web | last = | first = | authorlink = | coauthors = | year = | url =http://www.scouting.org/factsheets/02-571.html| title =The Congress and Scouting | format = | work =Fact sheet | publisher =Boy Scouts of America | accessdate =2006-03-20}} *[[James C.
