SECRET STRANGER
The evil agent known as the Jackal. The good agent is known as the Condor. They will meet both of them one at a time. They must decide which is the Condor and present their computer disk to him/her. They must determine who is who by asking them questions and judging their character by the responses.
EQUIPMENT NEEDED
PHYSICAL ARRANGEMENTS
You must get information to a secret intelligence unit of the United States government. Your contact is an agent known only as the Condor. You have no information about his/her appearance, nor do you have a code word for identification. The original code word was comprimised by enemy agents. It is known that an enemy agent known only as the Jackal is operating in the area and may try to impersonate the Condor to intercept the information on your disk. If your information gets into the wrong hands it could be distasterous for the free world.

RETURN TO
We used a trail along a river as the staging area for this event. A staffer will meet the boys along the trail and explain the event to them. You need two staffers, one to portray the Condor and one to portray the Jackal. They should be people who can play the part well.
SITUATION
The patrol members are given their instructions. They hike down the trail until they encounter a mysterious stranger. They talk with that person. They continue until they encounter a second mysterious stranger and talk with that person as well. Based on their conversations with the strangers they must judge who is the Condor and who is the Jackal. Once you've decided which is the Condoor, you should present them with the disk.
10 points is perfect. Five points are giiven for choosing the correct person. An additional five points may be given based on quality of questions and how well the group worked together. The points are scored by whomever they give the disk to, either the Jackal scores them or the Condor scores them.
None needed. They were given a computer disk before they set out on their first mission.
The events go fast and there is little time.
