Boy Scouts earn Nuclear Science Merit Badge at AFTAC

Staff Sgt. John Mullaney II, a scientific applications specialist at the U.S. Air Force Radiochemistry Lab at Patrick Space Force Base, Fla., uses an Alpha/Beta Survey Meter to check for potential contamination on the hands of Tejeshwar Umamaheswar, a Boy Scout from Troop 263 in Lake Mary, Fla., as his father and Scout Master, Umamaheswar Kasinathan, looks on. Teja was one of 62 scouts who traveled to the Air Force Technical Applications Center Oct. 22, 2022 to earn the Nuclear Science Merit Badge with help from Airmen who work at the Department of Defense’s sole nuclear treaty monitoring center.
