I’m back in scouting after 15 years and was trying to add my past tenure from years ago to my profile and since the troop (also in a different council) I was ASM for no longer exists, it doesn’t show in the pull down menu for troops.

Is there no way to add past experience if the unit isn’t a current active unit?

No way to do that in Scoutbook

At the bottom of your Edit Profile page are two fields for descriptions - one is for biographic information, the other for scouting experience. You could record your past positions there.

However, I do not know who else can see this on your profile.

It’s visible here in the forums if you click on someone’s name. :^)
