That was my thought as soon as I read the word "encampment". The military and the Boy Scouts have had a long working relationship. I remember touring a Nike missile site with my cub scout troop and watching them track air traffic over Philadelphia on a radar screen. As a Boy Scout, our troop was invited to spend a weekend on a Naval Reserve mine sweeper. A lot of former Boy Scouts later went into the military.
