48th Medical Group helps scouts earn merit badge

ROYAL AIR FORCE LAKENHEATH, England - Boy Scouts of America troops 215 and 219 visited the 48th Medical Group February 28.

The troops spent the day touring the hospital and got the opportunity to speak with professionals from several departments and learn about the different medical specialties here.

The event was organized to help the scouts earn their medical merit badge.

“A lot of these kids are exceptional students,” said Brittney Jarrell, a certified pharmacy technician assigned to the 48th MDG. “We could be looking at our next generation of future doctors.”
