mrkstvns Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Some of y'all might not remember this, but scouts didn't always wear a council patch on their shoulders....we used to wear our city/town above our unit number... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treflienne Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 There is a "Troop 1" in my district that still wears the town name instead of the council patch. I suppose it helps to distinguish them from the multitude of other "Troop 1"'s in our district, including in adjacent towns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laxplr21 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 With the merger of Boston-Minuteman council and Yankee Clipper, there was a special council strip that was offered for a while that included the town, a reference to the old town strip that is alluded too. It was listed under the council strip. It looks nice done that way. This is what it roughly looked like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
