Jackets/Outer wearA description of the current and past jac-shirts, jackets and suits worn by youth and/or adult BSA members, along with information concerning where to place insignia on them... Insignia and PatchesThe vast majority of this site; addresses insignia placed on uniforms, jackets, equipment, flags -- and insignia designed for and worn with "street clothing" (civilian clothing)... Neckerchiefs The "symbol" of the Scout -- the neckerchief (not "hankerchief", "snot rag", or "kerchief") -- it has a purpose. Actually SEVERAL purposes. How to wear it, why is it in different "colors" and "styles"... Hats The official and unofficial hats worn by Cub Scouts, Boy/Varsity Scouts, Venturers, Sea Scouts and their adult mentors and advisors... Sashes Why talk about it here? Because a lot of people are still confused about how and when to wear them...

Many pieces of insignia are worn by participants and/or volunteers in two or more program areas! Please peruse ALL of the appropriate links and information for the information which most closely apply to you or yours. Use this website as a GUIDE, not as gospel; consult your local Council's Service Center ("Council office") for the exact usage of any insignia displayed here.
