The Order of the Arrow (OA) Vigil Honor is shrouded in mystery. We discuss how and why this is. We also discuss the process by which a Brotherhood member becomes a Vigil Honor member. The Order of the Arrow is full of mystery intentionally. This gives the individual a more meaningful experience through the ceremonies and their own personal ordeal. It is important that we observe and preserve the traditions of the Order of the Arrow. Many of the mysterious questions are answered in this video without revealing its method. It would be natural to think of the Vigil Honor as the third and final step of membership, but this is often perceived incorrectly. The Order of the Arrows Brotherhood has a long membership process. The Vigil Honor should be looked upon as an award for service in the past and the future.
