https://groups.google.com/g/alt.sex.stories/c/3G2pF9ajzpw/m/eYCeORzrhCwJ Let me introduce myself, I'm Nick Simpson, now aged 14. This is the story of what happened when I joined the local Scout troop last year. As a kid I had greatly enjoyed being a Cub Scout, but due to our family having to move around a lot I had been unable to join the Scouts as soon as I became old enough. We only settled down in this country in the autumn of last year, so I decided to join up after the winter snows were over. In fact it was shortly before the Easter holidays when I applied. The Group Scoutmaster visited my parents for a chat and the application form was filled in. For a reason which I didn't understand at the time, but now do, I was sent out to play in the garden whilst they finished their chat. Apparently my parents were told exactly what was to happen to me when I joined, but I was kept in the dark. The following weekend I was taken to buy the clothing and equipment that I would need. At last the day came to attend the first meeting. My instructions were to turn up in normal clothing, bringing my Scout clothes, whistle and sheath knife with me. I had to be at the hut at a quarter to six, which was fifteen minutes before the appointed time for the normal meeting. I was met by two Patrol Leaders who took me inside and told me to lay all my equipment out on a table at one end of the room. There were two other new boys, both younger than myself, doing the same thing. Everything had to be in exactly the right place on the table. My dark green shirt was at the top left, with the mushroom coloured shorts immediately below it, and grey socks below them. To the right of the shirt was the green beret, below which was a blue and yellow scarf formed into a horseshoe, with the woggle laid centrally between the ends. Below the scarf were black trainers with velcro fastenings. To the right again came the brown belt, whistle, sheath knife and the garters with green tabs on them. When I had laid everything out to the satisfaction of the Patrol Leaders I was taken back outside the hut and told to wait until called. The meeting started with us outside, unable to see or hear what was going on. It was about ten more minutes before the door opened and we were called into the room, only to be stopped one pace inside the door. The Scoutmaster was standing in front of the tables which had our things on. The troop was lined up Patrol by Patrol along both sides of the room, all standing to attention. A small card was given to each of us with what we had to say printed on it. The Scoutmaster said, "What do you seek that brings you here tonight?" We had to reply, "Membership of the 1st Grimsdown Scout Troop." He then said, "Who will sponsor these applicants?" One of the Patrol Leaders replied, "I sponsor Harry Witherspoon for membership of this Troop." Another sponsored me, whilst a third sponsored the remaining candidate, Peter Matthews. The sponsors were told to stand behind us and then we all moved two paces forward. The Scoutmaster continued, "Peter Matthews, Nick Simpson and Harry Witherspoon, you have applied to join the 1st Grimsdown Scout Troop and have been sponsored as members. Do you promise to keep the Scout Laws, to honour God and the Queen, and to obey all orders from your leaders?" "I do." we all replied in unison. Next came something none of us had expected. "In joining this troop you will be expected to maintain the highest possible standards of health", the Scoutmaster continued, "you will be subject to regular inspections at meetings and any drop in standards will be punished. Your first inspection will be tonight, if you pass you will be invested with your uniform. All three of you are now to strip completely." Crikey! To be stripped completely bare in front of the Scoutmaster and all these boys was an exceedingly embarrassing thought. I suppose we were all a bit stunned and moved rather slowly in undressing so that the boys who were sponsoring us had to tell us to hurry up. We had to be completely naked; we were not even allowed to keep our watches on. Our sponsors took our clothes off to another room to one side of the main hall and then returned to stand behind us again, but now they were wearing only their shorts, they had stripped off the rest in the other room. We were then moved another two paces into the room, but still stood behind the furthest boy in the lines at the side. "Corncrake Patrol, please bring your applicant forward", said the Scoutmaster. My sponsor was obviously the leader of that Patrol for he propelled me towards the other end of the room with his hand on my right shoulder. I could feel all the other boys looking at me in my nakedness. I wanted to cover my privates with my hand, but had been told to keep my hands firmly by my side. As we approached him, the Scoutmaster moved to one side and I could see that there was a large box behind where he had been standing. I was told to stand on it and face the front. My sponsor stood to my right whilst the Scoutmaster approached from my left. He now had a stethoscope and proceeded to briefly listen to my chest. "Have you been vaccinated?" he asked me. "Yes sir," I replied. "Whereabouts?" "On my right leg", I said. He looked at the dimpled white scar on my thigh and said, "That looks OK. But I see you haven't been Circumcised. Why is that?" "I don't think my parents thought it necessary", I replied, blushing terribly knowing that everyone's attention was drawn to my bare genitals, "Neither of my brothers were done either." He then said softly, "Oh. We can see about that." but I didn't realise the significance at that point. Next he pulled my foreskin right back hard. It fitted tightly over my knob and I very rarely pulled it far back. It didn't half hurt as the small opening was stretched to come over the knob and then again as he pulled tightly on the little cord thing underneath. I heard the sponsor whisper to himself "Ugh!" My balls were then pulled down in their sack and squeezed a bit so that they ached, then I was told to turn around and bend over to touch my toes. "Legs wide apart." I was told. When I had bent over I felt something cold and moist on my bum and then the Scoutmaster's finger was pushed into me, stretching my little ring and bringing a surprised yelp from me. His finger wriggled around inside me. I hated it, but to my surprise it made me get a real hard stiffie. The finger came out and I was told to stand up and turn back to face everyone. Oh, embarrassment! I couldn't hide that stiffie with the skin straining to try to uncover the gleaming red knob. The Patrol Leader then leaned across and jerked the foreskin hard back, making me cry out with the pain. This also made the erection go down. My foreskin was put back in place and I was told to get off the block. The Scoutmaster picked up my new shirt from the table and placed it over my head. The Patrol leader did up the buttons and I noticed as he did so that troop and county badges had been pinned onto the shirt. The Scoutmaster picked up the scarf and woggle, placed the scarf around my neck and gave the woggle to the Patrol Leader to put on me. The socks were picked up next and handed to me to put on, followed by the garters which the Patrol Leader carefully positioned. The whistle on its lanyard was placed around my neck and tucked into my breast pocket. The beret was put on my head and adjusted by the Patrol Leader. Only now were my shorts picked up. The Patrol Leader held them for me to step into and then did up the buttons. The belt was threaded through the loops in the top of the trousers and the sheath knife was added on the left hand side. Finally I was given my trainers to put on and the Patrol Leader did them up. I was now fully dressed as a Boy Scout. He then said, "In stripping naked you put away your old selfish self; by allowing yourself to be intimately inspected you have submitted to the authority of leaders; you have now been invested with new clothing as a sign of a new and better way of life. Welcome to the Troop." I was then required to salute the flags and the Scoutmaster whilst all the boys cheered. My sponsor then led me to join the rest of Corncrake Patrol. A similar inspection and investiture occurred in turn for each of the other candidates. When we had all been invested the Patrol Leaders dressed fully again and the whole Troop repeated the Scout Promise. The rest of the meeting was much like those I'd attended in the Cubs - a bit of football, practising knots, and learning to identify birds. The time flew and it was soon time for the Troop to assemble for notices and dismissal. Again we were lined up in Patrols either side of the room. The only notices were regarding a special camp for potential Patrol Leaders at Whitsun and a two-weekinduction camp during the Easter holidays (in two weeks time) which we new boys were obliged to attend. We were given papers detailing what to take to camp and then dismissed. Everyone went into the small room to collect their normal clothing and brought it back into the main hall where they stripped off the Scout things and re-dressed in day-to-day items. I was told that we must always completely change clothes actually at the Scout hut each meeting. The following week I went along for my second meeting. It still seemed strange stripping off all my normal clothes, including my underpants, and then dressing in the Scout things. I was certainly not used to wearing trousers without pants under them and it felt so funny, but I was to get used to it in time. There were no special ceremonies that week and we spent the whole time in normal Scout activities. The notices at the end were again reminders of the camps and the fact that there would be no normal meeting for two weeks whilst the induction camp was going on. I handed over my #5 camp fee and was told to be at the hut at 9am the following Saturday. I was very excited and wondered what was special about an induction camp. I'd been camping twice with the Cubs and had enjoyed it, so I was sure that a fortnight out in the countryside would be great fun. The Scoutmaster had hired a mini-bus to take us to the camp since there were only five of the six Patrol Leaders and us three new boys, so it wasn't worth a full sized coach. "Besides which", he had said, "it will give us a means of running around whilst we are there." We changed into Scout things in the hut, just as for a normal meeting, and packed our regular clothes back into our bags. Once we were out of town and on the open road we were told to take our shirts off and put them all on one of the spare seats. Although it was not a particularly warm day, it was quite pleasurable letting the fresh air get to our bodies. The camp was about two hours drive away and we were soon entering the gates, where there were warnings for trespassers to keep out. There was a long, winding, tree-lined drive up to an imposing old house which was the centre-piece of the camp. We went indoors to the registration desk where the Warden asked us for our parental consent and health forms. Having checked that they had been properly completed he returned the health forms and told all of us, including the Patrol Leaders, to go up to the first floor and into room 20. This turned out to be the waiting room for the camp sick bay into which we were called one at a time. We handed over the medical forms and were examined by the camp doctor in the presence of our own Scoutmaster and two others. This examination was one of the most thorough I've ever had - on a par with the one when I started at the Grammar School. I think just about every aspect of my body was checked - a blood sample was taken from my arm; my heart and lungs were tested; vaccinations, eyes, ears, throat, penis, testicles and anus were all examined in great detail. The doctor then proceeded to give me an injection in each of my bum cheeks, which he said was for tetanus. He rubbed the area with the swab after each injection but having given both of them he slapped each buttock hard six times, "to absorb the serum better", he said, but I think it was just to make the bum sore. I was then told to run on the spot until out of breath. The four men watched my bobbing genitals intently whilst I did this. I then had to lie on the couch where the doctor wanked me off and collected the semen in a small tube. I still had a stiffie when I was told to put my trousers back on and return to the reception desk. Once we were all re-assembled at Reception we were each given a plan of the site and we were told who was to be in each tent. This was a permanent camp site and we hadn't needed to bring tents with us, but each group had to erect their own tents (and take them down again at the end of the period). The sting in our bums was soon forgotten as the next hour was spent busily fighting with tent poles and yards of canvas. When we had finished this we went into the main building to wash and then fetched our shirts from the minibus ready for lunch which was to be served in the main building, so we didn't have to worry about making a fire and preparing everything. The dining room was full of boys from troops all over the county. Most of the new kids were 10 or 11 years old, with just a handful who, like myself, were older. There was then a big jump in age to the 15 year old Patrol Leaders, who outnumbered us about 4 to one. We had been deliberately mixed up at that meal so that we got to meet boys from other troops. The Patrol Leaders all seemed to be talking in very guarded language about something which we kids weren't allowed to know about, but it obviously affected us. The first four days of camp were more or less as I remembered from my time in the cubs. The only slightly different thing was that we were all required to take a cold shower each morning and a warm one at night. The showers were in the main building, but we had to strip in our tents and take only our soap with us. We didn't get dried until back at our tents. The Scoutmasters watched us and checked as we came back that we were wet all over, especially in our more private places. It was all so strange, but a bit exciting. We also swam naked in the big lake in the grounds. On the third evening the camp's doctor, who had examined us all when we arrived, gathered all the new boys in the sports hall and gave us a lecture on penile hygiene. We were then asked who was Circumcised and who was not. Most of us knew, but about ten boys didn't and were called out to the front where they had to strip and be told. This caused a lot of sniggering from the rest of us who were better informed. On the fifth morning there was a buzz going around the Patrol Leaders as we showered. They were still secretive at breakfast time, but round about 10am we started to find out what the camp was really all about. We had just finished tidying the tents, a task we had been told must be done without shirts, when the Patrol Leaders surrounded us and dragged us off to a wooded area to the west of the camping ground. A rope was tied to each of my wrists, the ropes were then thrown over two of the lower branches and then tied again to the other wrist. Thus prevented from moving, my shoes and socks were removed, followed by my shorts to leave me totally naked. My legs were pulled wide apart and another rope was passed round the back of the tree trunk and then tied to my ankles. I was thus totally helpless and very vulnerable. All the other new boys were similarly fastened naked to other trees. The older boys left us and we remained trussed up like that for about an hour before the Scoutmasters came over to tell us what was going on. It was all most uncomfortable and very degrading. Eventually the party of Scoutmasters came over to us and explained that in our county it was expected that all scouts would set the highest standards of hygiene amongst their fellow boys. To aid us in doing this we were to be Circumcised that afternoon. A lot of boys, including myself, objected to losing our foreskins but the response was simply to mark objectors' chests with a black cross from a felt tipped pen. This marking was used later to identify those boys who were to be cut more tightly and more painfully. The Patrol Leaders came over with bowls of warm water, shaving foam and cut-throat razors. They proceeded to shave all the hair off our genitals. I was dead scared that the razor might slip and I would lose everything! We were then left tied up whilst everyone else had lunch. After they had eaten they returned to perform the actual actual Circumcisions, starting with the youngest boys. Each Scoutmaster had the boy's own Patrol Leader with him and also 3 or 4 Patrol Leaders from other troops. All were wearing only a pair of shorts. The procedure was the same for all the uncircumcised boys, so I'll just describe what happened to me. My own Patrol Leader pulled my foreskin backwards until the frenum was very tight and then pulled it forwards as far as he possibly could. At this point the Scoutmaster drew a line across the shaft, just over half way down it, with a felt tipped pen. The foreskin was then released momentarily, only to be grabbed and pulled forward again by the Scoutmaster. The outline of my glans could be clearly seen through the tightly stretched skin. "Cut it along the top, from the tip of the glans to the end." the Scoutmaster said. The Patrol Leader took out his sheath knife, dug the point in near the tip of my glans and proceeded to cut slowly down my skin. Blood oozed out and it hurt like buggery as the fairly blunt knife gradually tore the foreskin apart. It took him about ten strokes to cut right down from the glans to the very tip and right through the outer and inner layers of the skin. Tears were streaming down my cheeks by the time he had finished this task. Having performed the first cut, the Patrol Leader put away his knife and took over from the Scoutmaster in holding the foreskin tight, but this time the cut edges were pulled apart with predictably painful results. The Scoutmaster took out his own sheath knife and placed the tip of it under the skin just above where the previous cut ended. The sharp edge was upwards and the skin was then pulled down across it, severing the thin membrane higher and higher up my shaft until eventually the cut reached the mark made across the shaft. Here the knife was removed and then used to cut down and round the shaft so that the two flaps were turned into one piece held only at the frenum. The Patrol Leader placed a small stick into my meatus at this point. That again hurt like hell. With the stick inside it, the penis was held out straight whilst the Patrol Leader made the final cut with his blunt knife to sever my frenum and the attached foreskin. Ashes from the previous night's campfire were put onto the wound, which was then bandaged tightly. The boys who were already Circumcised didn't actually fair much better. Their old wounds were opened along the previous scar line with the Scoutmaster's sheath knife. If there was any loose skin then this was cut off; the frenum was removed from any boy who still had his intact. The wound was then dusted with ashes and bandaged like ours. We were left tied to the trees until supper time. It was agony walking the three or four hundred yards to the dining hall since our very sore penises kept banging against our legs as we walked. The meal was taken naked - just as well really; wearing trousers would have been even more painful. Sleep came hard that night as our wounded penises throbbed constantly. The bandages were kept on our penises for five days, during which time we were kept naked, but had to work at the usual camp chores and also play the usual camp games, etc. The only thing we didn't do was to shower or swim. At the end of the five days we were again tied to the trees and the bandages were removed. The wounds were starting to heal, but were still a bloody awful sight. The Patrol Leaders washed us to remove the caked on blood and ash - an activity not without its own unique pains. More ash was put on and fresh bandages, which stayed in place for another three days. During this time we wore our shorts again and started to get used to the effects of material near our tender cocks. Finally, eight days after being so roughly Circumcised, the bandages were fully removed and we were sent for a swim, followed by a shower and then inspection by the camp doctor. The rest of the time at camp followed normal patterns, except that we all now started looking at one another's penises, during the twice daily showers, to see who had been cut tightest and who was healing fastest. I gained some satisfaction from the fact that my cut was the furthest down the shaft of anyone's, except for some of the Patrol Leaders. The night before we were due to leave the camp, everyone was told to strip and then form a ring around the camp fire. The Patrol Leaders and even the Scoutmasters all stripped too. One Patrol Leader came and stood behind each of us new boys. The remainder joined the Scoutmasters in another group. We were then told that the final test was to check that our newly modified and cleansed penises worked fully. The Patrol Leader with us would milk us and we were to milk them. The first boy to ejaculate would win a prize and the last one would get a thrashing. Someone came round and put a blob of cream on each of our penises and then each of us was expertly wanked by the older boy with us whilst we tried to copy them and bring them to climax. The Scoutmasters and remaining Patrol Leaders were working on one another in the other group. Suddenly one of the kids let out a few loud "Oooh's" and shot his load straight into the campfire. This stimulated the rest of us and it wasn't long before nearly everyone was spraying spunk in all directions. Just one little nine year old failed to make it at all and was given six of the best for letting the side down. At the time, I was very upset at loosing my foreskin and in great agony whilst it was being cut off. I don't think I will ever forget the pain of that Circumcision, nor the helplessness one feels when tied up totally naked whilst someone stands before you with a knife in their hands ready to cut you. Now, just over a year later, I'm pleased to have undergone the initiation ceremony and to be rid of my foreskin. Wanking needs a new technique, which took some while to get used to, but is now so much more pleasurable and lasts longer. Two other sets of new boys have joined the troop during the year and it was fun watching them undergo their investiture examination. They went off to camp expecting just a fun time, whilst we knew that they would come back changed for ever. At the first meeting after the camp, newly initiated boys have to stand naked at the front whilst all the others handle them. It is embarrassing at the time, but helps to bond the troop together as if we were all brothers. I am now deputy Patrol Leader and will be going on a special camp for new Patrol Leaders next year. I've heard rumours that it too is a very painful camp. Someone said they re-circumcise us even more completely. I don't mind: I'm just looking forward to the time when it is my turn to make that first cut down some little sprog's foreskin and watch him being painfully turned into a man.
