December 7, 2011 marked the 70th anniversary of the attack on Wake Island and Pearl Harbor. On this day Troop 123 assisted Noah with the dedication of the Wake Island Defenders Memorial at Veterans Memorial Park. The memorial and dedication ceremony were Noah's Eagle Project.

In June Noah was awarded his Eagle rank at this Troop 123 Court of Honor.

On September 15, 2012 Troop 123 provided the color guard for another dedication at Veterans Memorial Park. Inspired by Noah's memorial, another group raised funds and got the approval to have an additional flagpole installed at the park, this one now flies a Wake Island Flag. News story link here
