Soldier on, Boy Scouts
In light of recent events on Election Day in which Boy Scouts Troop 45 was asked to remove donation boxes it had placed in Cambridge polling locations to collect essential goods for local troops serving overseas, I think it is only appropriate to clarify a few matters.First, it is important to note that although over the past five years there has been heated debate about the wars themselves, Cambridge always has and will continue to support the men and women from our city who have bravely put their lives on the line for our country. On Oct. 22, I sponsored a City Council resolution in support of Troop 45 and its effort to support the Cambridge military deployed overseas. The City Council unanimously approved the resolution and went on record commending the Boy Scouts on organizing the donation drive and urging all citizens to support the effort.
