If the military wants a "junior cadet corps", it can go make one. They seem to have such things here in Canada, and people know what to expect. I'm not sure what "core values" are for the Scouts, but I'm fairly certain they're not fully shared with the military. More a sense of interacting with nature, teamwork, learning, ... Given that society is multi-spectral, there's nothing wrong trying to broaden the appeal and integration of Scout groups.
