SCHOFIELD BARRACKS -- Four Soldiers from the 5th Engineer Detachment, 84th Eng. Battalion, 130th Eng. Brigade, 8th Theater Sustainment Command, volunteered for Saturday's Eagle Scout project.
Their effort provided a lion's share of the manpower and technical construction skills required for several of the tasks to complete the project.
Their presence also provided Scout Brian Moore the opportunity to exercise leadership with adults outside of Troop 24, which is a valuable experience that will pay him dividends in the future.
On Saturday, crews cleared brush, emplaced several guideposts and stairs, and prepared the trail for the general public.
This Saturday, March 14th, Troop 24 will finish the remaining tasks required to reopen the Kolekole Trail following a 2 p.m. ribbon-cutting (or untying of the lei) ceremony.
Scout Brian Moore said that he is looking forward to completing this project, not only as a requirement to earn his Eagle Scout rank, but also for his community.
(Note: Berge is the chief of Facilities for 25th ID.)
