KevinsDeal1 Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 I have been told that the Red Vest (or Brag Vest) is not to be worn at Formal occasions such as Flag Retirement ceremony's, Relgious Ceremony's and Blue & Gold events. Does anyone have the BSA Regulations on this with source? In Scouting- Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moxieman Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Kevin, whoever told you this is interpreting the BSA Insignia Guide in a specific way. http://www.scouting.org/scoutsource/Media/InsigniaGuide/03.aspx Under "Excess Insignia": "Previously earned badges and insignianot representing present statusmake a fine display on a BSA red patch vest, a trophy hide or blanket, exhibited in the home of the recipient, or at functions where such a display is invited." Whoever told you this is basically stating that the vest is "not invited" to be displayed at these events. Then again, the brag vest isn't an official part of the uniform. Every pack seems to have their own policy on brag vests (at least those that have them). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
