MCLEAN, Va. A Boy Scouts spokesman says he expects a federal judge's ban on Pentagon support for future Boy Scout Jamborees to be appealed and overturned.

More than 40-thousand scouts, leaders and volunteers are meeting this week at Fort A-P Hill, the Virginia base where they've held their jamboree every four years since 1981.

Judge Blanche Manning ruled in March that the Pentagon cannot financially support the event in the future because the Scouts require members to swear an oath of duty to God.

Scouts spokesman Bob Bork says that doesn't make the Boy Scouts a church or a religion. He adds that the military hosts and supports the jamboree as part of a training exercise in crowd control.

2. What a lovely little fight. Do we jam the army down kids' throats or...

do we let the government sponsor oaths of duty to God. Why this is an issue I do not know.

3. they boys scouts are a private company based on religion. I remember

when there was sign over our scout house in Texas that said "whites only". Actually it didn't say whites only, it said "No N------ allowed".
