Eagle Palms are the final step in the advancement trail for Scouts who have attained the rank of Eagle Scout in the Boy Scouts of America. While Palms are not themselves ranks, they represent recognition for a young man who stayed active in Scouting and continued to work on merit badges after earning his Eagle. The Palm insignia looks like a small metallic palm frond pin to be worn on the ribbon of the Eagle badge (Eagle medal), and/or the Eagle square knot. The official requirements are as follows:

  1. Be active in your troop and patrol for at least 3 months after becoming an Eagle Scout or after the award of your last Palm.
  2. Demonstrate Scout spirit by living the Scout Oath and Scout Law in your everyday life.
  3. Make a satisfactory effort to develop and demonstrate leadership ability.
  4. Earn five additional merit badges beyond those required for Eagle or last Palm.
  5. Take Part in a Scoutmaster conference.
  6. Complete your board of review.

Merit badges earned at any time (before or after Eagle) count, just not the ones used for the Eagle requirements.

The Palms are awarded in the order of bronze, gold, and silver. When a scout completes more than 3 palms, the order repeats. For instance, a scout who has completed 25 additional merit badges and 15 additional months of service beyond his Eagle rank would wear a silver and gold Palm. He would not wear all Palms earned up to this point (bronze, gold, silver, second bronze, second gold), only the silvers and, if applicable, the highest non-silver.
