Oscar Magan Alcaráz (4 May 1953–30 Aug 1970) was a Scout and Junior Forest Ranger of Eulogio Rodriguez Jr. High School in La Loma, Quezon City. His Scout unit, Explorer Post 14, was registered with the Quezon City Council of the Boy Scouts of the Philippines. Alcaráz drowned[1] at the La Mesa Dam Reforestation Project of the Boy Scouts of the Philippines, the Philippine National Bank, and the Reforestation Administration when he got entangled in water plants that prevented his escape after conducting a swimming rescue of his drowning Scoutmaster.[2] Alcaráz was the first non-military, non-President, to be buried (31 October 1970) at the Libingan ng mga Bayani, Fort Bonifacio. He was posthumously conferred a Gold Medal of Merit (Posthumous) highest award for gallantry by the Boy Scouts of the Philippines. He was also awarded "The Presidential Merit Medal" by President Ferdinand E. Marcos on 11 September 1970 at the Malacanang Palace.{{cn|date=February 2017}} References1. ^on National Heroes' Day 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://news.abs-cbn.com/focus/08/16/16/a-cemetery-doesnt-make-a-hero |title='A cemetery doesn't make a hero' |publisher=ABS-CBN News |author=Grande, G. |date=17 August 2016 |accessdate=3 February 2017}} Bibliography
