Risking Life

Call for volunteers for some dangerous enterprise, such as “Dispatch Running,” or some other game made dangerous by the condition that if the scout selected to do the dangerous job fails he will lose his life; that is, will forfeit his scout’s badge permanently. If he succeeds he may get up to 15 marks towards a badge of merit.
