Twin Eagles - the Fullers and the Mckay's.


A highlight of our Annual Awards and Recognition Dinner for many years was our honored guests, John and Buell Fuller. The Fuller brothers were twin Eagle scouts from Quincy who brought members of their Troop to perform a Native American ceremony at our banquet. The Fullers are the first twins to receive their Eagle badges, awarded in 1927.

In an interesting twist, Troop 2 had our own set of twins do the same 55 years later, in 1982 – brothers Rob and Rich McKay.

Photos of the Fullers, the McKays, and a performance from the mid 1970's by the Fuller's troop are below:
