How times have changed. I can't imagine that there are many places where they'd still have naked swim lessons, much less naked swim lessons that they'd allow a camera crew to film.
I was in the Boy Scouts (earning Eagle Scout), and after I did three years in the Army, I also did several years as an Asst. Scoutmaster. This was
a long time ago.
Two situations happened that are worth mentioning. Both of these happened when I was in my early twenties.
1. During a Summer Camp I heard from the scouts that one of the Camp Staff (who happened to have come in from Israel) didn't wear a
swimsuit down at the lake swimming dock. Many of the kids were amazed anyone would swim naked when everybody else has a swimsuit
on. I wished I had gone down to the swimming dock that day.
2. My troop did a weekend of camping at an older scout camp that once was used for summer camps. It had a swimming pool. The saturday
my troop was there, a strip fight broke out. One by one...each person in the pool got ganged up on and stripped by the other boys. Including
me, the Asst. Scoutmaster. I was already wearing a Speedo, so was showing off more skin than anybody else was before the strip fight.
Only the older Scoutmasters, a couple of the dads, were not targeted for pantsing. Saw quite a few bared butts and wieners that day. I suppose
today there are regulations within Scouting that say such fun n games is a "BIG NO NO".
