First God and Country medal winner named by committee
Seventeen-year-old Eagh Sout Don Berg of Helena Montana, holder of four merit badges of the Hoy Scouts of America, is the first recipient of the God and Country medal from the National Protestant Committee on Scouting. He attends St Peter's Pro-Cathedral in Helena and has completed 150 hours of service. The Presbyterian church reports little progress toward union with other Protestant denominations, with ongoing talks since 1970s failing to gain Episcopalian agreement and no reconciliation with the Southern Church.
