While I can understand this sentiment, I would like to point out that not every scout who attains Eagle stops being involved in Scouting. In my son's troop, half of the adult leaders are Eagles. In the last couple years, of the dozen or so young men who earned their Eagle rank in our troop, 3-4 of them have returned to serve in some capacity, and there are a couple more who want to return when they're finished with their education or armed forces service.
