    Default Anyone Remember an old TV commercial?

    Back in the 60s or 70s there was an ad showing a nervous old man, walking at night through a dark alley. There are two men in the background walking his way. He keeps looking back at them. At the end they emerge as two soldiers in uniform. He wipes his brow in relief.

    Was the ad for the US Army, USO or National Guard, or something else?

    It was an ad for The Boy Scouts of America...I remember the ad very well...I've been trying to find it on YouTube, but no luck.

    Thank you Sir for that info. I had no idea that the BSA even did TV ads....would be cool to find the original and might even be worth showing on TV again..

    They had a series of commercials called "Boy Power". They were well done and very to the point.
