The Boy Scout Commemorative Tribute by Donald DeLue (sculptor) and William Henry Deacy (architect) was erected in Washington, DC in 1964.
Atop a six foot hexagonal granite pedestal, a seven-foot bronze Boy Scout strides forward under the inspiration of larger classically draped bronze figures representing Manhood and Womanhood. In front of the pedestal is a sunken 40-foot-long oval pool surrounded by a commemorative inscription and 12 wooded benches.
The photos and description of the Boy Scout Commemorative Tribute are part of materials from the President's Park South registration form for the National Register of Historic Places.
