The Lone Scout program doesn't appear to just be BSA: the article referenced mentions that the program existed in Britain and some other countries before the BSA adopted it. -- CannotResolveSymbol ^talk 20:28, 5 February 2006 (UTC) reply

True. William Boyce was inspired in part by the Lone Scout program in the UK when he established the Lone Scouts of America. -- Emb021 22:25, 7 February 2006 (UTC) reply

I can't speak for other countries, but in the US, there ARE Lone Cub Scouts. -- Emb021 22:25, 7 February 2006 (UTC) reply
