Badge Reference 2371 Date posted Thursday 2nd of November 2023		Badge posted by Jean Gosling These three badges were in Mike Gosling's British Scouts in Foreign Countries collection. I can see no mention of them in the catalogue. Can anyone confirm who used them? Thank you. Comment posted on Thursday 2nd of November 2023 by Edwin These are Group badges from Cyprus, and so listed. The group wore them on the back of their Neckerchief. Comment posted on Thursday 2nd of November 2023 by Dave Pinnington The two badges showing the outline of the island were used prior to independence when Cyprus was under British rule. The badge with a bird is a Group badge from Akrotiri. Comment posted on Thursday 2nd of November 2023 by Fred Eardley I believe they are all Group badges. The one with the map of Cyprus, I was told, was the first type worn by the 57th Cyprus (Episkopi) Group. It later adopted an anchor on a diamond shaped badge.The one with the bird on was the 58th (Cyprus) Akrotiri Group.If anyone knows differently, please let us know Comment posted on Thursday 2nd of November 2023 by Jean Gosling Many thanks to you all for sharing your knowledge, much appreciated.

Badge Reference 2370 Date posted Monday 30th of October 2023		Badge posted by John Ball I acquired this badge recently. I assumed it was UK scouts in Singapore, early variety, but I now realise it should say 'Singapore' in the tablet, not 'Boy Scouts'. There is no 'un-named' variety listed in the Singapore or the BSIFC catelogues. I am confused. Is this an early BSIFC Singapore badge? Comment posted on Wednesday 22nd of November 2023 by Tony Dunn I also have this badge but its exact location is unknown. It first appeared at the 1947 W/Jam. Thought to be Ceylon, India or Burma but closer than that not known. Comment posted on Wednesday 22nd of November 2023 by Tony Dunn Both are British Group scarf badges. The map one was the 57th Cyprus Episkopi. Round dates was in use by 1960. Was also used by Cyprus island contingent to the Isreali Jamboree in 1965. Square issued by 1968 and a ribbon version was in use in 1998. Cyprus gained its independence in 1960 so neither are pre independence.The flamingo badge is 58th Cyprus (RAF) Akrotiri based on the station crest. 4 versions the last being pink on black 1979-2013. Silver on black 1/2B issued Feb 1964. Ribbon in 1973-1979. All EXT but 58th survive as Sea Scouts. Add your Comments

Badge Reference 2363 Date posted Saturday 26th of August 2023		Badge posted by Malcolm Clark Any ideas on this badge? Obviously Swedish. Dated 1946, could it be a Jamboree barge? Comment posted on Tuesday 29th of August 2023 by Malcolm Clark Answering my own question again!I was reading the badge as Aramso, but it actually reads Gramso. Put "Gramso 1946" into a search engine and you get this:http://scouthistoria.se/scouthistoria/ss/Granso_1946.pdfSo this is the badge of an international gathering, but the name jamboree was not used Add your Comments
Badge Reference 2362 Date posted Sunday 20th of August 2023		Badge posted by Paul Can anyone tell me if this patch is real or a reproduction? Thank you Comment posted on Monday 21st of August 2023 by gerry mcbride First of all is the Ribbon cotton or synthetic! it should be cotton and the threads should be cotton if either is shiny and synthetic then it is a repro! how cant tell by look then if there is a stray thread then could could use the flame test. But before you do that ALKAHN produce replicas in south Carolina and HK, another thing is the deer back stitching is too smooth and the accents over the O's should be at an angle touching not upright and away. Hopefully some one nearer to you can have a look a real is worth alot were as a replica is a gap filler till you get another mortgage. Hope that helps.ps I have not got a gap filler Comment posted on Thursday 14th of September 2023 by Jerry It was already mentioned a long time ago. The synthetic badge was made by Hungarian scouts in the diaspora to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the 1933 World Jamboree and was also used as a contingent badge to attend the 1983 Calgary World Jamboree (Hungary was still communist, but ethnic units in Canada , Australia and the USA were and are still very much alive).

Badge Reference 2360 Date posted Thursday 10th of August 2023		Badge posted by Malcolm Clark Unlabelled badge in collection of miscellaneous scout badges. Comment posted on Monday 14th of August 2023 by Malcolm Clark Answering my own question again, I have found that this badge is from the Scouts Association of Zimbabwe, Province of Matabeleland Comment posted on Monday 21st of August 2023 by gerry mcbride Hi MalcolmJust a quickie it should be cotton thread on cotton twill have a look at the back it should be open. however the ribbon or cloth that it was stitched on should be yellowy not beige as they were made on a sheet of cloth not strippings around that time they used to be made from the backs of scout shirts. It could be a nice gap filler. Someone with a african collection should be able to help I cannot get to mine as in the container away from the floods. Also the interlocking back then was never a perfect science so tended to be thick and thin in places as all done be hand and eye. Comment posted on Tuesday 6th of February 2024 by Jerry In 1971, Zimbabwe did not exist. The territory was Southern Rhodesia. Comment posted on Friday 23rd of February 2024 by Tony I obtained a lot of the old Alan Dykes Jamboree badge collection. This badge is/should be a listed IBC badge. It was an International Camp, 1971, held at Ruwa Park, Rhodesia. Attended by many Southern African countries. It is one of 6 diff. Participant badges, all in a diff. colour. The first letter of each of 5 subcamps spell out "S-C-O-U-T". & Red was HQ. Your badge is "O" for Odzi subcamp. Add your Comments

Badge Reference 2348 Date posted Saturday 29th of July 2023		Badge posted by Malcolm Clark I have this badge in a collection that has been passed on to me. It is labelled as Barnet VSU in the collection, but seems to be an identical design to D6 (Downe Camp Site) in the IBC Rover Scout badge catalogue. Can anyone confirm which it is? Comment posted on Saturday 29th of July 2023 by Alan Looks like the Downe Campsite badge, maybe the VSU adopted the badge? Comment posted on Saturday 29th of July 2023 by Fred Eardley This is listed in the Gilwell Badge books as the Down Camp Service Crew Comment posted on Friday 12th of April 2024 by Rob Ludlow I was given a few of these badges in a box of old badge stock belonging to the 1st Downe Scout Group that used to meet in Downe village close to the campsite.

Badge Reference 2341 Date posted Tuesday 6th of June 2023		Badge posted by Jerry I received this WJ1933 badge within a Scout lot box with stuff from Romania and Hungary dated pre WWII. Although it is the same size, it is obviously NOT the official participant badge. However that type of clothing is rather old. I have not found accurate clues in any guide about Jamborees and the exiles do not know it either. Any light over there? Comment posted on Monday 31st of July 2023 by Michael Taylor The badge is from Hungry World Jamboree in Budapest in 1950s it’s silk badge and if you have an axe only one were presented to the sub camp leaders Comment posted on Monday 31st of July 2023 by Jerry I very much doubt that in the 1950s there was a World Jamboree in the middle of the Cold War behind the Iron Curtain, especially since Scouting was banned and prohibited. Nice try. Comment posted on Monday 31st of July 2023 by Jerry By the way, this is a heavy weave cotton type, rather older. A silk badge replica was presented in 1983 by the Hungarian Scouts in Exile as a 50th Anniversary of the WJ1933 as a commemorative badge. Add your Comments

Badge Reference 2297 Date posted Wednesday 27th of July 2022		Badge posted by Scouts Canada National Museum This group of proficiency badges was received recently at the Scouts Canada Museum in Ottawa. They are all black coloured with white lettering and symbols (ie no other colours). Only one ( the reef knot - Knotter) resembles anything in any of our old badge books. It could be suggested that they were specifically for Sea Scouts, but I cannot find them described in any of our badge sources. They came from the descendent of a former Scout in the Maritimes during the late 1930-1940s. Other badges (Tenderfoot, First Class, King's Scout) in the same package appear to be standard Canadian Scouting issue of that period. Can anyone identify the source of this design of badge ? Comment posted on Sunday 20th of November 2022 by James Crampton I have never seen these badges on any of the Canada sites either...could they be for Newfoundland...that would be my guess Comment posted on Monday 21st of November 2022 by Scouts Canada National Museum I have since learned that these were issued for a few years by the Quebec Provincial Council.

There have been multiple sources for this knot over the years so I cant tall or even define what would be fake or not Add your Comments

Badge Reference 2276 Date posted Monday 25th of April 2022		Badge posted by Fred Eardley Does anyone know whether this is a scout group badge, please? If so which Group and County? Comment posted on Friday 29th of April 2022 by Mike Breakwell Possibly Yarnton Scout Group, they certainly wear a Y on the scarf? Comment posted on Saturday 30th of April 2022 by Fred Eardley Hi Mike, Thanks for the comment. However, I know of the Yarnton badges, but all theirs are on an equal sided diamond background. I contacted them once about another Y badge on a shield with an inner border, but they said that wasn't theirs so I don't think this is either. Comment posted on Saturday 21st of May 2022 by Naomi Heydon As scout leader of Yarnton I can confirm this is not one of ours. Comment posted on Saturday 21st of May 2022 by Fred Thanks for that, Naomi. I knew it wasn't Yarnton, but it's good to have confirmation from the Group. Add your Comments

Comment posted on Wednesday 5th of May 2021 by james crampton I have no idea. The purpose of this section, is for badge I.D. Does anyone know what this badge is? Comment posted on Tuesday 1st of June 2021 by Alex I have been collecting primarily the round series of proficiency badges since I went to the 76-77 Jamboree in Dandenong, Victoria, Australia. I also collect the Square Boy Scouts badges and have some Square Senior Scouts badges.I was told LONG AGO (1980ish) of a badge that I have never seen called Mines Rescue. Could this be the a representative of this badge? I have a decent collection, but I don't have this badge. I would be interested in swapping or buying this badge if you are interested in letting it go. The square series with Boy Scouts also has a series with Senior Scouts, with the same emblems. I assume the square/Boy Scouts badges were a crossover. Comment posted on Tuesday 8th of June 2021 by James I have it as ‘mine safety?’ So it is certainly to do with mines Comment posted on Wednesday 9th of June 2021 by Tony Peck Hey fellas; This is certainly unique to Australia under our old proficiency badge system. It was Mines Rescue for Senior Scouts [squared issue], also Mines Safety for Boy Scouts [round issue]. If you reckon they're hard to get, you're correct. I recall back in the 1970's we added up all the possible places in Australia, such as coal mines where scout groups existed and we totalled a possible three Groups where this badge could be earned ! The Seniors badge is still more 'available' numerically than the Scouts' badge was. When our badge system changed, Scout Shops in Oz sold off all their excess proficiencies/stock c. 1980s, including these issues, however, not many of either had been actually made, so they're still extremely toughies. Tough badges = tough kids ! Add your Comments

Badge Reference 2107 Date posted Thursday 11th of February 2021		Badge posted by Steve Two different issues of the same badge. Probably from a Group but which one? Comment posted on Thursday 11th of February 2021 by Peter The Papal Tiara is used by many Roman Catholic Scout Groups and each group has it's own badge made. This means that there are many different versions of the same "group" badge and it is almost impossible to link each badge to an individual group. Comment posted on Thursday 11th of February 2021 by Fred Eardley I would agree with Peter on this one. I believe the left hand one is the older version, and the right hand one, of which I received an example from the 1st Rainham (La Salette) Group, but I also have had this attributed to the 4th Macclesfield and 3rd Rayleigh. The left hand one has been attributed to the 136th B'ham, 25th Oxford, 33rd Cardiff, and 9th Rugby. Add your Comments

Badge Reference 2090 Date posted Thursday 4th of February 2021		Badge posted by Steve A Baden-Powell commemorative item. The wording is "Silver leaf From South Africa Remember Baden-Powell Boer v. Briton". It appears to be an actual leaf but maybe a finely crafted silk-like material. It is 136mm wide by 38mm high. What exactly is it and who issued it and when? Comment posted on Monday 15th of February 2021 by Tony Peck I used to have a small Boer War collection. This is a Tourist item, specifically sold to Soldiers of British Empires' various countries when on Leave. These were coloured painted gum or other broad tree leaves, different wordings inscripted, & usually sent back home in a folded greetings card, bearing a local postcard and/or, with various areas for a short message. I never saw one with Baden-Powell on them, so this detached item appears bit scarcer, given once Mafeking relieved over they reverted to normal Cape Town or bigger city items. You can still pick these folders with leaf inside nowadays here in Australia for $20 if you have a lucky find. Add your Comments

Comment posted on Thursday 4th of February 2021 by Steve A possibility. I have examined the tape with a magnifying glass both front and back and there does not appear to be any stitches, remnants of stitches or hole marks.

Cluain Dolcain is the Irish for Clondalkin which translates into Dolcan's meadow. Naomh Gillin is Saint Kilian, also spelled Killian or alternatively Irish: Cillian. The group which was founded in 1940 is now known as Saint Killian’s. Clondalkin is a town about 10Km west of Dublin. It’s more likely to be the 78th Dublin, the 66th Dublin were I think Clontarf.

Comment posted on Wednesday 18th of November 2020 by Peter I think this is a tourist issue Comment posted on Wednesday 18th of November 2020 by Martin Gerrard Thanks Peter. It's unusual for a tourist badge as it is ribbon cut from a roll and it came with some other French Scout badges. Grateful for the ID though - I was adding 2 and 2 and getting 5! Thanks again. Comment posted on Saturday 21st of November 2020 by Tony Dunn French tourist badges often appear at pre 1957 World Jamborees where they were taken to swop. Some were worn if it was a small place. but i doubt if this was so with a Paris troop. I agree its a tourist badge, its not listed in any French variety list i have seen.

Comment posted on Sunday 15th of November 2020 by John Lewis Tom:That's great - another one sorted!The Ontario 77 strip is good - I will put it with my Trees for Canada badges - wasn't aware of the connection.

Unable to add to OP Comment posted on Thursday 12th of November 2020 by Victor Bensilum Is it an Australian Patrol badge they certainly existed in the UK with Patrol animals and birds. Comment posted on Thursday 12th of November 2020 by Steve UK issue. Quite early. Brass badges for a number of different patrols were made to be worn by patrol members out of uniform. Several were of a 'white metal' to be worn by Patrol Leaders. Comment posted on Thursday 10th of December 2020 by Colin Walker This was a patrol lapel badge manufacture under licence of the Scout Asociation for Browns of Glasgow- they at first made a series of 12 which was extended to 24 - there are some very rare examples of 'silver' version which are thought to be patrol leaders. I have 23 out of the 24. They all appear in one full page image in my book Scouting Collectables Vol 3. Comment posted on Monday 21st of December 2020 by kelvin holford I have been able to catalog 32 patrol lapels with either photos of the lapel or the sales advertisements. In my opinion a badge does not exist until we all see a good photograph of the item. It is sometimes very difficult to encourage collectors to share so I am still look for proof regarding lapels for, Beaver, Buffalo, Horse,Hound, Otter, Ram and Seagull Patrols. Add your Comments
Badge Reference 1950 Date posted Wednesday 11th of November 2020		Badge posted by D J Williams Hello and thanks for looking. Have been trying to identify a lapel badge from the effects of our uncle "died of wounds" 20/02/1917 Ypres salient. Emerged from a brown paper parcel cherished by his mother and sister for over a century. Two mystery badges originally the first turned out to be really interesting/significant. The second was posted on here in 2019 and identified as an early 1900's patrol badge so thanks for that. Just thought we'd add its Rgd No 532206 for info.

Badge Reference 1940 Date posted Sunday 27th of September 2020		Badge posted by Martin Gerrard Bright white pressed metal with pin fastening, cheap production so unlikely to be jewellery. Similar to Austrian Scout badge but bands instead of shield in middle. Approx 30 x 20mm. Any ideas please? Comment posted on Saturday 21st of November 2020 by Tony Dunn That looks like a ring at the base of the FdL. Which means it would hang up side down! I think it is probably just a standard FdL off a charm bracelet. That would also fit with being made as a cheap product. Comment posted on Saturday 21st of November 2020 by Tony Dunn Just noticed you say it is pin fqstening. But why the ring at the base? Hardly a security chain as you say, its a cheap product. Maybe dual purpose? Comment posted on Saturday 21st of November 2020 by Martin Gerrard Thanks Tony, I think you are right about the cheap jewellery bit but grateful for the second opinion.

THe DSS is a Maltese cross; (not a crucifix which this is) on blue with naval crown on top in gold. It looks like it caould be a naval crown though, which has ships sails, so it may be a Sea Scout group badge. Comment posted on Monday 16th of November 2020 by Fred Eardley Thanks Tony.

He found it after he passed away and knows nothing about it. It looks aged but is in good condition. How can I tell if it original? Is it valuable? Comment posted on Monday 1st of July 2019 by Peter As it says "World Jamboree 1967" it's 52 years old. Fairly sure this is the repro issue if so may be worth 20 - 30p Comment posted on Tuesday 2nd of July 2019 by Adam Is the back cloth or plastic? If plastic it's the repro. It looks to be an original though. Unfortunately they made tons and tons of these as 50+ years later they can be very easily found and in near perfect condition (at least here in the USA). They are also not valuable, you'll get maybe 5 dollars if you are lucky. Comment posted on Sunday 23rd of February 2020 by Mark Tsai I am Boy Scouts of China. 53 years ago, I joined this 12th World Scouts Jamboree at Idaho, USA in 1967. It's original.

Badge Reference 1838 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Peter Ford Any ideas on this badge, I was thinking it could be a Scout and Guide Group badge. but any information would be useful. Comment posted on Monday 8th of July 2019 by john I have one in my collection as Russian Orthodox Scout & Guide Association, although I am far from certain. There are 30 or so Russian Scout Associations (Regional & National). It has the look & style of a UK badge, so the badge was perhaps sponsored / organised in the UK? Comment posted on Sunday 21st of July 2019 by TONY DUNN Could it be a Scout / Guide co-operation badge, e.g. 'bridging' the gap? The other option is a RGVS Joint Unit badge?

Whether the badge date commemorates the new heirachy, I do not know. The boundary map on the badge is similar to the current CAR but the border has changed over the years, due to civil wars. Comment posted on Wednesday 24th of October 2018 by Tony Peck This is Botswana 1966 Independence Jamboree, held at Botsele. If you check out a map of the country its the same shape shown.

Badge Reference 1681 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Fred I obtained an old Swiss scout shirt probably 1950's, on it mainly African bafges, of those pictured I do not know what they are can anyone help? maybe the green one with compass is North durban? and the AEF maybe Afrique Equatoriale france (Congo?) Comment posted on Sunday 11th of February 2018 by Tony Dunn Top left is Tunisa membership. S.Durban as you say. You could be right on AEF although not sure AEF is Congo. Either way, I collect French Colones so if you don't collect them I am sure we could do a deal. Its a good badge if it is AEF. Comment posted on Sunday 11th of February 2018 by Tony Dunn Sorry I meant NORTH Durban Comment posted on Friday 16th of February 2018 by Vincent Lafitte Hi Badge AEF is a french region badge.

Badge Reference 1677 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by John Lewis Belt Buckle made of thin tin plate. is this British? Comment posted on Monday 29th of January 2018 by Alan Yes, I think British, but not an official one. You rarely see these on belts, so I suspect they were made to be used for leather craft projects. Comment posted on Tuesday 30th of January 2018 by Gregory Cohen This is definitely a UK belt buckle - I discovered a small number of these belt buckles back in the 1990's from a District Badge Secretary and I think I have now swapped them all apart from the one in my collection (this may account for the mint ones circulating). However, like Alan, I have seen really battered examples on UK Scout belts. I do not believe that the buckle was manufactured to accompany one's leather craft work. The buckle shows a fleur-de-lys-de-lys, without stars, which may indicate a very early buckle. However, the words 'GOOD LUCK' leads me to believe that it might have been produced for a Group's/District's Overseas Scout Expedition (I would have said 'for a Jamboree contingent' but surely they would have added the word 'Jamboree'). I'm always looking to trade UK Scout & Guide belt buckles. Add your Comments

Thanks Comment posted on Tuesday 7th of November 2017 by John Group Badge from the Orkneys in Scotland John Comment posted on Tuesday 7th of November 2017 by james There were 4 of these group/island badges produced : Burray, Dounby, Kirkwall and Shapinsay. Kirkwall shows St Magnus Cathedral which belongs to the people. the ball is for the Uppie v Downie ball game played through the streets of Kirkwall between the top of the castle walls and the sea. Comment posted on Tuesday 7th of November 2017 by Alan Sewell The 4 badges mentioned including this one are spoof badges Comment posted on Tuesday 7th of November 2017 by John Spoof? - Really? Am sure I got mine from the Glasgow Scout Shop, as Group badges John Comment posted on Friday 1st of December 2017 by Fred Eardley I was in contact with the District some years ago, and there was no suggestion that these were produced as 'spoof' badges. All of them were designed by Neil Johnstone, Area Secretary, and Ian Mcleod, the then Area Commissioner, as Group badges for the individual Groups. Add your Comments

I am wondering if it is French Scouts (SdF) in Germany as there are such Groups. The Cross of Jerusalem shown is the SdF symbol and the red white and blue could represent the French colours on the German eagle. Just a guess though. Francois Poumaloux would know.

The 7 seems to be acting like an arrow to northern Germany perhaps showing its location, but I dont know exactly where. Comment posted on Monday 22nd of May 2017 by Steve Bull Thanks Tony.

Badge Reference 1349 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by eric ellmes I found these GG badges in my late brothers collection. If anyone can identify any of them I would be most grateful. Comment posted on Tuesday 31st of January 2017 by james British guide badges: top left: Guide hat badge c 1960 - 68 PL? top right: Guide 2nd class c 1960 - 1968 bottom left: guide proficiency - Laundress if 40 - 44mm dam c 1931 - 1968, if 30mm dial c 1968 - ? bottom right: brownie wings from c 1961 - ? Comment posted on Wednesday 15th of February 2017 by Gill Stewart The hat badge is an ordinary one. The PL's badge has an additional curved bar underneath and is therefore irregular in shape. The wings also went out in 1968. As far as I know the navy badges came in in the fifties and not the sixties. Add your Comments
Badge Reference 1348 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by eric ellmes I think this is to do with the wood badge but any information very welcome Comment posted on Monday 30th of January 2017 by James In1967 the advance party introduced a badge same size as this for holders of the wood badge with 2 beads on it. The one with one bead was for those who had completed their basic training. This was because between 1967 and 1977 leaders wore a green tie. Between these years the actual beads were worn on special occasions as Gilwell Reunions and wood badge presentations Comment posted on Monday 30th of January 2017 by James I meant to say that it was quite common for the single bead badge being sewn on upside down with the knot at the top!

Badge Reference 1321 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by gerry mcbride Hi There Can anyone identify please also its worth Thanks Comment posted on Thursday 8th of December 2016 by Tony Dunn Hi Gerry Could it be an old colonial Medal of Merit or Thanks badge from New Zealand from the late 1930s? The ferns (NZ national emblem) around the badge and English motto are pretty distinctive. Britain and its colonies used a Swastica (Flyfot) for these badges until the Nazis came to power and destroyed its good meaning and many places changed the emblem they used. red/white/blue fits with the NZ flag. Comment posted on Sunday 15th of January 2017 by TONY DUNN Gerry - I have found that the first known issue of the British medal of merit was exactly the same as this except it said FOR MERIT across the centre. The British one had a plain white ribbon first. No stars make it early, the UK version being in use by 1912. Have you tried USA? I think France would be in French. Add your Comments

Badge Reference 1319 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by eric ellmes Is this a version of the badge for Scotland? Comment posted on Sunday 27th of November 2016 by John There are a number of varieties of these (St Andrew's flag with Scout badge superimposed). They were worn in Scotland (perhaps unofficially?) before the Scottish flag became standard uniform wear (without the Scout badge). Varieties exist with different sized badges & some date to pre APR (1967) with "Boy Scouts logo" Comment posted on Sunday 27th of November 2016 by eric ellmes Thanks John confirmed my thoughts Comment posted on Sunday 27th of November 2016 by James The badges with the large pre Apr and large post Apr badges as on the one illustrated were non uniform badges produced by Scotland. The one with a small scout badge completely in the white cross was an error and sold off at Gilwell. Add your Comments

Badge Reference 1308 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Judith Please do you know what the small square badges are? I was told they are genuine vintage guide badges, but I cannot find out what they are. Thanks. Comment posted on Wednesday 16th of November 2016 by Fred Eardley The two small square brown items are military officers 'pips' worn on the epaulettes to denote their rank - 0ne pip is worn by a 2nd Lieutenant. Two by a Lieutenant, and three by a Captain. I would doubt that there is any connection with Guides. Comment posted on Thursday 5th of January 2017 by Jennifer It isn't the first time I have seen Brownie/Guide badges for sale with these 'pips'- a recent auction on ebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/COLLECTION-OF-VINTAGE-GIRL-GUIDE-SEW-ON-PATCHES-9-/182392693076?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&nma=true&si=XQ4qI6mRwQrP9BRXHea%252FzkRwLpM%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc has one as well, in different colours to these. I've definitely seen a previous auction with them too. I know that doesn't help - but it could support the notion that Guides or Brownies wore them at some point? Comment posted on Tuesday 28th of May 2019 by Jackie O'Sullivan The POips may have a guiding connection. they may have been worn by a member of the Guides International Service who did work with refugees and displaced persons in the aftermath of WW2. I believe they held an honorary military rank to help them liaise with whatever military services were available wherever they were sent. Their uniform was a navy battledress jacket and beret Add your Comments

Comment posted on Friday 28th of October 2016 by Tony Dunn I don't think this is so much a Scottish badge as a reference to St Andrew the disciple. St Andrew of course, wasn't even a Scot but a fisherman from Galilee, which could explain the fish. So Scotland is probably a red herring! And of course, you get St Andrew's schools and Scout Groups in other parts of UK as well as Scotland Add your Comments

All these badges are supposed to be diamond shape when worn not square. Mine also is unidentified although I was told it was a BSWE Group.

Comment posted on Friday 28th of October 2016 by Alan I don't know, but I have one as well! Comment posted on Tuesday 8th of November 2016 by Gill Stewart These were just official issue Guide belts, same as the Scout belts of that generation which had a badge on the buckle. They were around for several decades. Till mid 1960s Comment posted on Wednesday 16th of November 2016 by John Its the wording that makes this different. Most GGA belts say "GIRL GUIDES ASSOCIATION" Comment posted on Monday 21st of November 2016 by mark parry could it be irish as it may be a shamrock in the middle Comment posted on Friday 16th of December 2016 by Gill Stewart This is probably stock made in Britain for one of the member countries. The badge in the centre is probably a stylised trefoil. The first UK and general commonwealth belt is the one with the rose, daffodil, etc, and that was available before 1920,later replaced with the one which was in style until the sixties.

Badge Reference 1294 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Steve I think it is from Canada. Is it a Group badge or a District not listed? Comment posted on Monday 17th of October 2016 by Tony Dunn The trumpeter in the middle is the symbol of the Latter Day Saints and 'Stake' is also a LDS term. A Stake is more than one local church grouped together, usually 5 or more. So it is unlikely to be a Group Badge. But whether it is a LDS District within a Scout District or one in its own right, I do not know.(see NZ/CM19 Tamaki Stake and 22.) Comment posted on Tuesday 18th of October 2016 by Steve Thanks. Comment posted on Tuesday 29th of November 2016 by gerry mcbride Hi Steve The Badge is Canadian There is a Scout Group, Cranbrook 5th LDS. It is a group of youth from Cranbrook 1st & 2nd Wards, and part of the Cranbrook BC Stake. Hope this helps, if you don't want it then I am interested. Add your Comments
Badge Reference 1293 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Mike Gosling I have had these five badges for a long time I think I swopped them at Gilwell. The person who had them thought they were used by a London Area Group as Patrol Badges. Does anyone recognise them ? Thanks. Mike Comment posted on Sunday 16th of October 2016 by mike gosling Oops, I did not mention they are thought to have been used by Sea Scouts. Comment posted on Sunday 16th of October 2016 by Tony Dunn These are badges of naval signal flags. There are 26 flags, one for each letter and the first 10 flags are also numbered 0-9. Up to 3 flags can be used to make 999 numbered words, the meaning of each number is found in the flag code book. The letters you have, left to right are: F C A G & H. I was hoping that they would run aphabetically for patrol A B C etc but the letters you have does not work! Unless they had 8 patrols and you have some missing. Comment posted on Sunday 16th of October 2016 by Tony Dunn Afterthought: Perhaps they are the INITIAL letters of the names of the patrols, maybe water or sea birds? Add your Comments

They still wear the matching necker, which is dark blue with the yellow and orange flames embroidered along the 2 edges from the point. There is now a 'north' and a 'south' unit. Comment posted on Sunday 30th of October 2016 by Fred Eardley Hi Alan, Many thanks for confirming that the badge was worn by the Freeminers ESU. All I need now is an example of it and the Unit nametape, so that I can record it properly, so if you know anyone who can help........! Add your Comments

Badge Reference 1279 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by John Ball Came with some Australian badges, but I can't find it in the catalogue. Comment posted on Sunday 4th of September 2016 by edwin I feel sure I've seen this before somewhere but can't think when or where. However I think this might be from the Pitcairn Islands in the South Pacific. not sure if it comes under Aus. or NZ scouting. Comment posted on Monday 5th of September 2016 by Tony Dunn, BSO I dont think this is Pitcairn because this is an antartic scene and Pitcairn is a lot warmer than that! Pitcairn is where the mutineers from the Bounty landed. Pitcairn comes under Rest of the World District in BSO as a British territory but only has 5 Scouts, the total eligible popoulation. It is administered by Scouts NZ for us as the closest country, who provide a Scouter on 6 month secondments who is always a policeman. But I said, I doubt it is Pitcairn. Comment posted on Sunday 9th of October 2016 by mark parry what about somewhere like south georgia maybe not scouting Comment posted on Friday 11th of November 2016 by Tony Peck 543 This is an AUS/VIC. badge which I have as the Sir Robert SCOTT Rover Crew (1st Canterbury Group), thus the Penguin.

Comment posted on Tuesday 23rd of August 2016 by Tony Dunn As Fred says, this is an Army badge for Catterick Garrison but it was also worn as the Scout badge for Catterick Camp Rover Crew also known as the Richmondshire Rover Crew. It comprised both RAF & Army soldiers, plus civilians. The earlier Scout version c1942 is also the Army printed badge and a small woven version on white, bound in green is still worn by the 1st Catterick Garrison Scout Group.

Badge Reference 1267 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Steve Country and Association please. Comment posted on Friday 19th of August 2016 by Tony Dunn This is the rank badge used in many Spanish (and Portuguese) speaking countries which they call CABELLERO which translates as "Knight", and often refers to St George in countries where he was the Scout patron saint. It was the top award like Queen Scout. Austria also used a version they called 'Georgesritter' (Knight of St George) using a helmet but it was different to this.

Comment posted on Thursday 8th of September 2016 by Tony Dunn Sorry Steve, cancel that last entry. The language is Spanish. I have just realised where I know it from. It is the chorus line of a famous Spanish Scouting song called "Buscad en la manada." So its a Spanish or S American badge not Portuguese. Add your Comments

Comment posted on Friday 19th of August 2016 by Tony Dunn The style of this badge with the outurned tips to the FdL is very similar to other old rank badges I have from the SCOUTS DE MEXICO c1970s. I have this same badge design in ribbon form on a silver grey and also dark green background with both with a red FdL outlined in yellow. Perhaps the red one is a Rover 1st Class? They could not use red on red which could be why it is black? Honduras used the same style of FdL with curved tips but most examples are Mexican. Comment posted on Monday 4th of November 2019 by Jerry It's a badge from a Mexican tiny scout associations. Which one? Who knows? There are dozens of little independent groupings over there.

Badge Reference 1247 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Steve Country and Association? Comment posted on Friday 19th of August 2016 by Tony Dunn The word 'conscripcion; is Portuguese, translating literally to English as 'conscription'. However unless Scouting in the country concerned was compulsory (like in Indonesian schools), I dont think it means that, but literally: 'con'=(with) 'scrip'=(words). Or to put it another way. a '(signed up)' member of Scouting." If its another one of yours from South America Steve, the obvious candidate by far for Portuguese is Brazil as a 'Year of the Scout' issue. Add your Comments

I collect VSU & ESU badges and I have had this one about 5 years. I told Fred it maybe Erith as it was the only Viper ESU I could find on Google at the time, but there was no picture of a badge. Since then I have found Viper ESUs in Hants (claret scarf white stripe shown without badge) Another in Wilts which was formed much later(2014), another in Cotswold Vale, plus Milton Keynes. All don't show a badge. Trouble is Erith Viper ESU have disappeared, maybe closed? Comment posted on Wednesday 20th of July 2016 by Fred Eardley Tony, It met at 2nd Erith HQ, and although I have tried to email them to ask, I didn't get a reply, so perhaps they have also closed down. Comment posted on Tuesday 13th of September 2016 by Claire This is for Viper ESU. Was part of Erith and Crayford, GLSE, (2nd Erith).

Its marking 100 years of BP's birth. I have one of these, but in metal John Comment posted on Thursday 30th of June 2016 by edwin There is a Ribbon & and a metal issue of this listed in BIGAE. I have not come across one for Scouts or at least not the SA. which is why IF it's uk it might be either BPSA or one of the other Non Recognised assocs. Comment posted on Friday 1st of July 2016 by Bob Definitely not BPSA as that association did not start until 1967. , UK guide versions were metal and ribbon. This looks like AUS/UNC/SC 3 or NZ/UNC 57/1. But as BP was a world wide figure there could be similar from other counties which I don't collect Comment posted on Saturday 21st of January 2017 by Nada I received a cloth one of these as a Guide in Melbourne, Australia for the 100th anniversary of Baden Powell's birth. The metal one was for Rangers or Leaders. Add your Comments

Comment posted on Wednesday 15th of June 2016 by Peter The GC stands for George Cross awarded to the Island. Comment posted on Wednesday 15th of June 2016 by Tony Dunn Before this issue, Malta wore the half bound Union Flag with a red on white name strip underneath with the word 'MALTA'. The 'MALTA G.C.' badge varieties were first issued after the war from c1947 up to 1964, when the blue behind the George Cross was taken off the shield and the G.C. label dropped. The George Cross was awarded unusaully to the whole population of the Malta for their courage and resistance to constant heavy bombing and blockade by the Nazis during World War II Comment posted on Thursday 16th of June 2016 by Darryl Bretherton Thanks for your help.

Comment posted on Friday 8th of July 2016 by edwin Sorry I do not know what this one is. I have one I'm trying to ID. but it is not in the Australian Group Badge catalouge. Comment posted on Saturday 23rd of July 2016 by Tony Peck 543 This is NOT an Australian Group badge. "Pacific" was issued in 1957 as a SWAP badge, in a series with others. I can identify these were released commemorating 50 Years Scouting sold by Australian Scout shops, including at Australian National Corroborees & Jamborees through to early 1960s. It explains why many ended up in UK as that was the centre for trades. I found a copy of the very first "AUSTRALIAN SCOUT BADGES" book, issued May 1964 by an old Badger, Jeff "Rusty" Irons from Tasmania, showing references most of these badges then known/in existence. So far I have found several separate 'series' of them. Send me your photocopies by email if I can assist further. Add your Comments

Comment posted on Monday 28th of March 2016 by Tony Dunn, These are very similar arms to the Tresbuts family, Barons of Wartre in Holderness, Lincs who bore: 'Argent, trois boutz d'eau, Gules', a pun on their name and estate. Boutz d'eau (waterbags) are the golden emblems on the blue which were leather bags in which water was carried, dating from Crusader times. The last Tresbuts heiress married into the de Ros(Roos, Roose or Ross)family of Laxton Notts who bore various variations of these arms. The Roos married into the Macclesfields of Maer, Staffs who owned Chesterton & Maer estates (very close to you) as well as in Notts up to c1570. I know all this as I am a descent of the Macclesfields. Doesn't tell you the Group but at least you know whose arms they are and what they show.

Comment posted on Monday 28th of March 2016 by tony dunn COELMUND is a medieval first name, but it is not common. I can give you two leads. There was a Coelmund, a famous medieval bishop of Rochester, Medway, Kent. So it may be an ESU or VSU from Rochester? Chelmsley Wood in East Birmingham also brings up references to the name, the Chelmsley bit is thought to originate from someone of this name who owned the land in medieval times. It does have a tree on the badge and Chelmsley is better known in Scouting circles as the site of the old Birmingham County Campsite called Yorks Wood which was built over in the 1960s.

Badge Reference 1174 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by S Griffiths Can anyone tell me whether this is s Scouting badge or a Military one? The colours match the Grapple Rover Crew badges and flags, and from its size it could be a blazer badge. Comment posted on Thursday 24th of March 2016 by Tony Dunn The only Scout badges are the black on yellow shield felt badges (with and without an 'X') and two round badges also in felt (one orange, one blue,) which were Rover patrol badges. A pale blue ribbon Scout badge was issued as a swop badge/fundraiser in the 1960s. All Christmas Island badges were based on the same design which was the Operation Grapple logo of the A bomb test. It can be found on a number of non-Scout badges including blazer badges in various colours. It seems the same punch card was used for many of them as they are the same size of embroidery and style as the Scout issues. This one looks like a blazer badge, also found in red. Comment posted on Friday 25th of March 2016 by S Griffiths Thanks Tony. I would have been slightly surprised if it had been a scouting badge, but I had to be sure. Regards Steve Add your Comments

Comment posted on Thursday 14th of April 2016 by edwin Thank You Tony yes I have mentioned to Alan about that. the badge does indeed start LEY. what I can make out is LEYNF cannot make out next character followed by what looks like 138. lettering on the bottom looks like RCM. Comment posted on Sunday 17th of April 2016 by Tony Dunn, The gold FdL looks very similar to the Australian ones. Although it looks like an RAF roundel, I dont know of any RAF camp starting with 'Leyn.' I dont think it is an archery badge as the colours are wrong order for that. Of course it might also be Canadian. Sorry - not much help. Comment posted on Sunday 17th of April 2016 by edwin Thank You Tony. I thought the arrowhead was Australian to start with, it is not a known Aussie Group Badge though. I think part of problem is trying to read exactly what it says on the badge and that is difficult.

Comment posted on Sunday 21st of February 2016 by Peter It came with a small collection of Scout & Guide badges so I am sure it is one or the other!! I have a ribbon issue and a 1/2B issue both being Scout and this one is the same manufacture style. The 1/2b is in the variety book. Comment posted on Thursday 25th of February 2016 by Lorna The Guide one should read 'United Kingdom' in yellow/gold lettering underneath.

Comment posted on Tuesday 9th of February 2016 by Tony Dunn Not convinced. The first issue was in 1928 which is the small felt one named BRITISH SCOUTS EGYPT I have seen none without the full title, even independent issues by Rover Crews were named. Besides, the Sphinx is facing the wrong way on this one. There are military cap badges similar to this but I dont know the regiment, but Fred Eardley will. I am pretty sure that it is an Army issue.

Comment posted on Tuesday 9th of February 2016 by Lorna I read it as meaning 1954 and something about a third national (possibly) jamboree. This would tally with their restart in Taiwan in 1950. 新年快乐! Comment posted on Tuesday 9th of February 2016 by Alan According to the catalogue :-) There was a 3rd National Jamboree in 1956, this was a continuation of the China national jamborees, the first held in 1936. Unfortunately there is no description of the badge. Comment posted on Thursday 11th of February 2016 by Lorna Apologies. I was wrong- you were both right. Reads as 'China's third national Boy Scout [thrifty and busy/busy and great?] Jamboree- Forty-five years of the Republic of China'.

Thanks Comment posted on Sunday 24th of January 2016 by edwin this is SCAD 21 post APR issue of City of Edinburgh and Leith. and has been extinct for many years. Comment posted on Wednesday 27th of January 2016 by james This badge design goes back almost a hundred years. It dates back certainly to when the black and white County of Edinburgh & Leith ceased to be worn and may have been used before it. Certainly the earliest Edinburgh County badge which predated the black and white one was the same design but without the 'and Leith' and had the ribbon extended upwards onto which the groups number was added in metal numerals. Comment posted on Tuesday 2nd of February 2016 by gerry Hi everyone I know where the badge is from etc what I am fascinated by is what it is attached to!

Both these badges were sold at the scout shop at Downe campsite for camp blankets when I lived in Kent and are in my early collection.

May / not be scout but arrived with a large parcel of other badges. Thanks Comment posted on Sunday 29th of November 2015 by Tony Dunn I am certain that this badge is from Malaya before it became Malaysia. The elements show the distinctive 11 pointed gold sun on blue-black of Malaya, a sunray representing each state, (Malaysia has 14). The waves are part of the arms of Penang representing the Straits of Malacca and the gold lion 'passant regardant' on red is the crest for Singapore. However I cant find a flag or arms to fit exactly. It could be a school/university badge from that time or a perhaps a Group badge (not BGA) but definately Malaya - cant help more sorry.

Downward pointing elephant tusks are in the flag colours of Cote d'Ivoire and also appear on many Scout badges. No idea what it is though. Looks like it could be a proficiency or merit badge so could be National History or something similar. Comment posted on Wednesday 2nd of December 2015 by Tony Dunn Yes, it's African as green/gold/red are the Pan-African colours based on the Ethiopian flag (oldest African state) used on many flags, to which in 1917 Garvey added black to represent the African people. But maybe the badge is upside down for two reasons: this would make it a crescent and star plus the scimitre which are all Muslim emblems. So the tusks may be a crescent, but only guessing. Comment posted on Wednesday 2nd of December 2015 by Steve The black image in the centre looks like an elephant - national emblem of the Ivory Coast. Also there is a Scout emblem at the top which suggests the badge is the correct way up. No wiser what it is though. Add your Comments

Comment posted on Sunday 18th of October 2015 by FredEardley Thanks for that, Ed. At least I know it isn't a Group anniversary now, and that BSW stands for Bristol South West. Perhaps someone else can enlighten us as to what event it was for. Comment posted on Monday 19th of October 2015 by Tony Dunn A thought, Edwin - would the 2nd Bristol have been in that District? That would explain the big 2 and then it could be their 50th Anniversary? Comment posted on Wednesday 21st of October 2015 by ed reference to Tony's question about 2nd. Bristol being in BSW sorry I have no ideal where the 2nd Bristol are/were apart from not BSW. I think the badge was possibly a district camp I can not remember when B South East & B South West merged to for Bristol South.(90/17) I do not know anybody in BSW to try and gain more info.

Comment posted on Thursday 9th of July 2015 by Tony Dunn Othona is a sort of multi faith spiritual retreat based at Bradwell on Sea in West Dorset. Its founder, Norman Motley, was an RAF chaplain who started it in 1946 as a place for people to meet for reflection, discussion, and spiritual renewal. They also run activities for school parties. The badge is probably a souvenir badge; there are the remains of a Roman fort nearby hence the design. Google OTHONA and it should come up. Add your Comments
Badge Reference 1006 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Fred Eardley Is this scout? If so, is it a group badge? Any ideas would be welcome. Comment posted on Thursday 9th of July 2015 by Tony Dunn Hi Fred This is the British colony arms for St Helena. I don't think it's Scout as they wear a double District badge with Ascension Island and this design appears on that. There is Scout Group on the island, 1st Jamestown, but they have never had a Group badge as far as I am aware. I will try and find out but I suspect its another tourist badge. Where did it come from? Comment posted on Thursday 9th of July 2015 by Fred Eardley Hi Tony, Thanks for your comments. The badge came to me recently from a good collector friend who thought it might be a group badge. Comment posted on Monday 20th of July 2015 by Tony Dunn Half bound or large bound is the COUNTRYMAN collective badge used 1947-1959. The first Senior Scout badges were grouped in related activities under the following 7 collective badges: Athlete, Aviator, Mariner Craftsman, Countryman, Open Air and Scientist. If you passed the requirements for two different water activities you just wore the collective badge for Mariner but with a bar underneath. You could get up to 4 bars (for 5 activities) per badge. There were also 11 Public Service badges without bars. Most were reissued fully bound between 1952-1959. but are larger than later badges Most designs continued after 1959 when they expanded the badge design range but all these were fully bound and smaller so it is easy to tell the vintage. After 1959 this design fully bound became the CONSERVATION BADGE. They were named Boy Scouts 1947-1964 and named Senior Scouts 1964-1967.

Badge Reference 989 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by edwin OK this suggest a joint venture scout & ranger guide unit, but can anybody tell me which town and county, Please. Comment posted on Saturday 15th of August 2015 by Lorna Roberts Could it stand for 'Venture Scouts Robert Gordon University'? There seems to be mention on 2 web pages of a 16th Aberdeen group. Or maybe Robert Gordon's College- a large private school which has had scout groups in the past? Comment posted on Saturday 15th of August 2015 by edwin Thanks Lorna that is really useful and the only identification I have received. so that is what I will go with. 5 Comment posted on Wednesday 24th of August 2016 by Fred Eardley For what it's worth, VSRGU stands for Venture Scout Ranger Guide Unit, which I believe were mixed Venture and Ranger Units between 1967 and 2002, when I think VSUs changed to ESUs. Comment posted on Thursday 2nd of August 2018 by Peter Williamson The 16th Harrogate Venture Scout Ranger Guide Unit was known as the Cheetahs. The badge post dates my time as a member but it's highly likely this was from the unit. VSRGU's were only formed during a fairly short time period. They were mixed units with Scouts and Guides aged 16-21, once the scout association started allowing venture units to accept girls a new mixed units were typically Venture units. Comment posted on Saturday 11th of August 2018 by edwin Many Thanks for the ID. Pete. that's a great help. badge is going into the Venture Scout Section of my group badge collection.

Comment posted on Tuesday 30th of June 2015 by Rob Ludlow Thew cannon on the badge is a likeness of the cannon that is on display in Welling. The following should help explain everything: 'A large Russian gun is located at Welling corner. This Russian weapon is a 36-pounder carronade (calibre 6.75 inches - weight 17 cwt) of a type used during the Crimean War (1854 to 1860), displayed on a simple wooden replica carriage. The carronade was in service from 1780 to 1860 and is now on loan from the Royal Artillery Museum in Woolwich as a reminder of Welling's early association with the Royal Arsenal, Woolwich, when huts at East Wickham were built as homes for munitions workers in the Great War.'

Comment posted on Monday 13th of April 2015 by Fred Eardley Not sure which but either 1st or 2nd Deptford Group, Lewisham District, Greater London South County Comment posted on Monday 13th of April 2015 by Clive Huntbatch 1st Deptford Greater London South Comment posted on Tuesday 30th of June 2015 by Rob Ludlow I'm afraid that is slightly incorrect. The correct information is: 2nd Deptford (St Nicholas' & St Luke's), Lewisham District, Greater London South. Originally worn on a black scarf with the yellow cross hand embroidered onto the scarves, the group introduced badge which were upside-down tear shaped pieces of felt with the yellow cross stitched on, then a black rectangular cloth issue. Around the 1960s/70s the group then changed it's scarf colour to Lemon Yellow (which were roundly referred to as dusters) by which time the badge was modified to what we see on the left. The group scarf colour was once again changed about three years ago and is now lemon yellow with black border to incorporate the groups very long history. Unfortunately the badge is currently not in use, but I will be talking to the GSL to see if the group can reinstate it. Add your Comments

Badge Reference 936 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Alan Habbaniya, from the Gilwell sample books. There seem to be a number of varieties of this badge (see the Rover badge catalogue). Comment posted on Sunday 29th of March 2015 by John A. Roberts Thanks Alan for your help with the badge ID for Habbaniya. Comment posted on Monday 11th of May 2015 by Tony Dunn The reason for the varieties of this badge. RAF Habbaniya was in Iraq in early 1950s. They employed local levies who were confined to the camp for their own safety as they were helping British. Habbaniya British Services Rover Crew formed Scout & Guide groups for the local levy kids which were so popular they had over 500 members. These were all native children with no or very few British kids. Due to numbers there was more than one badge order. Mine is same design but on RAF (sky) blue. Not clear if background colour has any significance. Base closed in 1956 when HQ Near East moved to Cyprus due to insurrection. Comment posted on Thursday 9th of July 2015 by Helen Dale My father, Reginal H John Dale - aka Dixie - was stationed at RAF Habbaniya from 51-52. He was almost certainly involved with the Rovers as he had a lifelong involvement with scouting and still active when he died in 1992. My memories of Habbaniya are of sailing & swimming at the lake!

Badge Reference 904 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Tony Dunn This badge came with a late 1950s mixed collection of English, Welsh Scout counties and South African. Th badge is printed on a white linen diamond and appears to show a tigers leg (or gamb) grasping a red orb. It is obviously taken from a crest as shown by the black & white wreath. So: Is it Scout Group badge or perhaps military? Interestingly you dont have tigers in South Africa.

Badge Reference 886 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Fred Eardley I assume these are Patrol badges, but if so, what is the significance of the different coloured borders? Also, which patrols? Comment posted on Wednesday 19th of November 2014 by Tony Dunn \ Hi Fred these look like Senior Scout section patrol badges but they are not British as the British ones had maroon binding. Used 1941-1967; they were named after British explorers and inventors etc and some could be used upside down to give a different colourway and personality. The British colours were: Red/Yellow (other way up) is Sir Francis Drake. Brown/Gold was David Livingstone. The British ones are primary colours, no orange or purple. Some countries still use these; I believe Thailand and Cyprus among others, although the patrol names may be different. Comment posted on Thursday 9th of July 2015 by Helen Dale Blue in top left half over red in bottom right section was Guy Gibson Patrol. Comment posted on Thursday 9th of July 2015 by Helen Dale Blue in top left half over red in bottom right section was Guy Gibson Patrol. Comment posted on Saturday 1st of August 2015 by Tony Peck, IBC 543 These are first issue DFT (Design For Tomorrow) Australian Patrol badges, circa 1970s-80s. They replaced the universally used Patrol shoulder knot colours. Sometimes patrol colour tones and badge bindings varied.

Comment posted on Wednesday 19th of November 2014 by Mike This is probably what the DofE used to issue as an anorak badge or rucksack badge It is NOT a scout issue badge and the official DofE award badges are metal, army cadets and other organisation produce their own badges but they are more elaborate than this.

It looks to me like a Girl Guide patrol badge for IRIS or LILY patrol, the GG used flowers and birds for patrols in this style. I don't think its British; the colour of the ring is wrong, but it may be a Commonwealth country. The early British ones were embroidered and then became woven.

Some of these are local issues, and difficult to classify. Add your Comments

Comment posted on Friday 7th of July 2017 by Fred Eardley Following correspondence with the Group, I have discovered this is a prototype blanket badge for the Kelvedon and Sheering Group in Essex. However, it was not taken up as the Group did not like the design. My example was attached to a card saying that it was acquired in 1988 at 'London Scout HQ'. Add your Comments

Badge Reference 864 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Peter I have been informed that this is a 1950's issue American Eagle Scout Award. Can anyone confirm, please. Comment posted on Thursday 18th of September 2014 by Fred Eardley Looks like a RAF eagle to me, worn at the top of the uniform sleeve in red on khaki instead of the normal light blue on RAF blue. Comment posted on Sunday 28th of September 2014 by Tony Dunn This is the Royal Air Force albatross (sometimes erroneously known as an eagle) which was worn on both shoulders of RAF working dress uniforms. Comes in left and right versions in silver-grey on navy felt or red on kharki background cloth; the kharki was for overseas use. I have BSA Eagle Scouts from the 1950s and they are nothing like this. They are oval on a kharki swatch unbound with a spread eagle BSA design similar to the 1960 ones. Add your Comments

Badge Reference 855 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Fred Eardley Is this a Scout badge. The name at the bottom appears to be COMSOUTHTON but what that means , I don't know. Any info would be welcome. Comment posted on Thursday 21st of August 2014 by Tony Dunn COM. SOUTHTON is the latin abbreviation for "County of Southampton". Yes I know it not a county. I have often wondered if it has anything to do with Northampton County? Perhaps in years gone by it was the southern part as in South Hamp(ton)shire? But the term was still in use as late as 1959, see http://www.geog.port.ac.uk/webmap/hantscat/html/daborn1.htm This also shows your badge design exactly, with the addition of a bell at the top. Comment posted on Thursday 21st of August 2014 by Richard Hello Fred. As Tony says, this badge does refer to Southampton and dates back to when Southampton was the County Town of Hampshire (Southamptonshire) before it became a unitary authority and the County Town was changed to the former capital of the Kingdom of Wessex (Winchester). I believe this badge to be used by Hampshire members of the St John Ambulance Association on their uniforms to denote where they come from. More information about the Hampshire badge can be found in the book I wrote for Hampshire Scouts detailing information about the County and District badges of Hampshire. regards Richard Comment posted on Thursday 21st of August 2014 by Fred Eardley Hi Tony and Richard, Many thanks for the info and identification.

Comment posted on Saturday 31st of May 2014 by Lorna It's a judo badge! 'Mon' is the children's equivalent of the Kyu grades (white to brown belt) But it's broken down into more steps.

Not sure exactly what it is but I have one with gold instead of silver and also with blue background instead of green. Comment posted on Thursday 22nd of May 2014 by Lorna Looks like the DSPG (Deutsche Pfadfinderschaft St. Georg) from between 1948-1957. Comment posted on Thursday 22nd of May 2014 by Andreas Irmer Steve and Lorena are right its aformer DPSG (germany) badge. But be aware of reproductions, which are quiet common. You can identify them at the more modern making (backside). Comment posted on Thursday 22nd of May 2014 by Tony Dunn Yes DPSG memberships. Shown is the 2nd issue of 4 types. First issue was red outline on very dark green and lozenge shaped. Then your square version which feels very silky. then exactly same design with a red lozenge shaped border. These two designs came in a set of silver and a set of gold FdLs.I have seen green, blue and light brown backgrounds. I think one colour FdL is for section leaders and another for their sections but not sure which way round. Then a new design of fdl 34mm ribbon badges, issued in 1971 yellow (cub), Green (scouts), blue (sea scouts) and red (Rovers?). The new design always reminds me of a cowboy gun slinger about to draw his guns - if you have one you will see what I mean! Lorna do you have dates for all 4 issues? Comment posted on Thursday 22nd of May 2014 by tTony Dunn i think yours might be a repro - the originals are very silky in filed and mine though to be original have no fold lines, jut folded over to size..

Comment posted on Monday 14th of April 2014 by james Lochearnhead Scout Station is a disused railway station at Lochearnhead which as the name suggests is at the head of Lochearn. There were two railway lines at Lochearnhead and the station is on the lower line which went along the north side of Lochearn. The upper line goes over Glen Ogil to Oban and Fort William and was being closed by Dr Beaching but a landslide closed it a few months earlier. The station was taken over by Hertfordshire Senior Scouts in 1962 as a base for their annual camp and is still run by Hertfordshire In the 1980s I ran many father and son cub pack holidays there for the 162nd Liberton Edinburgh Group. The engine shows the Hertfordshire stag on the front. The badge is pre 1968. Add your Comments

First Scout badge was green bound and circular in the 1980s. 2nd badge is square and black bound and then a slightly bigger one was issued, both c1990s. All three show people getting off a boat named Pitcairn onto a jetty with conifirs (as shown on the tourist badge) on the hills behind. The named boat is a reference to that the original settlers were descendants from Pitcairn island, famous as the home of the mutineers of the Bounty. Add your Comments

Badge Reference 762 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Peter Hoping someone can help with identification. Comment posted on Saturday 7th of February 2015 by John Gurney A badge of very similar design to this is currently worn as a point of scarf badge by 1st Bulawayo (Pioneer) Troop, Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. Scouting started in that country in 1909, with the first troop being registered in January 1910 and the badge depicted here being of what looks like felt gives me cause to believe it dates from an early period of Scouting, and possibly even the original 1st Bulawayo. The miners pick has long been associated with Rhodesia from the days it was administered by the British South Africa Company, and appeared in the armorial bearings of of the country when Southern Rhodesia was created in 1923, and I am hazarding a guess this old felt badge might date from sometime onwards from there. A picture of the current badge may be seen by logging onto Matabeleland Boy Scouts, and going to the sub section for badges. Comment posted on Saturday 7th of February 2015 by John Gurney I have found a black and white picture of one of the old badges of 1st Bulawayo.

Comment posted on Monday 20th of January 2014 by Tony Dunn It is none of the above. This is definately an Iranian National Jamboree - reputedly the 2nd held in 1961. However the Arabic date at the bottom (first 4 figures on the left) reads 1339. The Arab calander runs about 579 yrs behind ours and is 11 days shorter so this works out as 1918 so is obviously a start of a commemorative date and not the date of the event. Comment posted on Thursday 11th of August 2016 by Tony Peck This is the 3rd Iran National Jamboree, held 1960, at Manzarieh campsite, Tehran. Attended by 10,000 Scouts.

The origin of its name lies in the Auregnais word for Alderney. It is also found spelt Aurigny as in Aurigny Air services, the regional airline for the Channel Isles which flies to Alderney.

The background appears to be the German national colours Comment posted on Friday 27th of September 2013 by Steve Bull I think this comes from British Scouts Western Europe, Germany District. It was awarded or given out to leaders who completed their Wood Badge Courses. Comment posted on Thursday 3rd of October 2013 by Tony Dunn Partly right. The current DC of Germany BSO tells me Ed Gough, his predecessor set up a DC\'s challenge and this was the badge that Scouts got if they completed it. This was in BSWE days and the badge dates from around 2005. The Wood beads are on it as a Scouty symbol, nothing more than that. Tony Comment posted on Monday 7th of October 2013 by Richard Puttenham I got the same infomration with almost the exact wording from a Scouter who transferred out of Germany 2 years ago (he\'s military).

Comment posted on Tuesday 17th of September 2013 by Alan The 1st Balham & Tooting are the \'King of Siams Own\' - see http://balham.com/community/1st-balham-and-tooting-king-of-siams-own-scout-group/ I don\'t know what evidence there is that it is a rover badge.

His court artist draw the badge which was approved by the SA. The Rover badge also depicted the white elephant on a maroon background, but without scroll.

Badge Reference 658 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Steve Is this a Scout badge? Comment posted on Tuesday 17th of September 2013 by Richard Spearing This is a Hampshire Group badge for the 25th Southampton (Northam) Sea Scouts. The 1st issue was in ribbon format. The picture depicts the Northam Ferry. They are now part of Southampton City District. Comment posted on Tuesday 17th of September 2013 by Steve Thanks. That\'s very reasonable as previous owner was ASL there 1955-57. Comment posted on Thursday 23rd of June 2016 by Dave This is RMS Queen Elizabeth and my understanding is that it connects the 25th Southampton (Northam) Sea Scouts with the crew, many of whom apparently lived in the Northam area, and support the group received from them. Not quite sure how this badge was instigated or by who so happy to receive any more information. Comment posted on Sunday 31st of July 2016 by Steve Thanks Dave. Sorry about slow response.

The USA Sea Scouts have a white summer uniform and a blue winter uniform and have white & blue colour background badges accordingly.

Badge Reference 654 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Steve I am reliably informed that this is similar in style to the War Office Rover Crew badge used during the 2nd world war. Size 65mm x 53mm as illustrated, plus edges folded behind, 15mm each side and 10mm at bottom. Material cloth, possibly cotton, unbacked. Help appreciated. Comment posted on Wednesday 11th of September 2013 by Tony Dunn I am afraid it is not very reliable information. The War Office badge is a crowned gold lion \'passant regardant\' standing on a crown on red & navy horizontally halved felt or printed cloth. Same badge for military & Rovers.

Badge Reference 653 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Steve Can anyone say whether this is a Scout or military badge?

Comment posted on Wednesday 11th of September 2013 by Tony Dunn The cormorant on a grappling hook was a design copied by the Rovers from the H bomb \'Operation Grapple\' symbol, and commonly used by other bodies involved in the H bomb tests, most using the same badge jacard. The four Tests and explosions (Op Grapple, Grapple X, Y, and Z) took place in May 1957 and ended in Sept 1958. This is NOT a Scout badge but one of at least two versions of blazer/souvenir badges made for airmen who were involved. At that time one of the Gilbert Islands, Christmas Island is now known as Kiritimati. Comment posted on Thursday 12th of September 2013 by Steve Thanks for clearing that up. Previous owner was Asst. D.C. of Christmas Is. Rover Crew and I didn\'t know whether this badge was related. Your help is much appreciated. Comment posted on Friday 13th of September 2013 by Tony Dunn Seems a bit pointless having an ADC(Rovers) on Xmas Island as there was only one crew, - do you know the name of the ADC? It was a large crew about 20 members with two patrols called Fanning and Malden named after two islands. Both had round badges; Fanning white lightning on navy felt; Malden green palm tree on orange. There is also a black and white felt pennent with the Grapple design and CHRISTMAS ISLAND - GRAPPLE ROVER CREW. Comment posted on Friday 13th of September 2013 by Steve ADC was James A. Milburn, my late uncle. I have had and sold the Christmas Island Rover Crew yellow shield badge and both the patrol badges you mention. I\'ll check to see if I have the pennant among the bagful he left me, and somewhere I think I have some papers with the names of some of the crew. Comment posted on Friday 13th of September 2013 by Steve I do have the pennant, it\'s about 6in. long. Comment posted on Sunday 15th of September 2013 by Tony Dunn I am the Area Historian for British Scouting Overseas. I know of James Milburn - he was RSL on Xmas 22/10/58 to 12/6/59. I have about a dozen photos of the crew so he probably appears on some of them. Email me on tonydunn@supanet.com and we can exchange information as I am always interested to hear about British Scouting Overseas. Thanks Tony Add your Comments
Badge Reference 652 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Steve Badge measures 47mm x 30mm and is stuffed, about 8mm in thickness. Material is felt, backing hessian. Near the outer edge runs a twin row of tiny metal beads, about 0.5mm dia. Comment posted on Wednesday 11th of September 2013 by Peter This looks like a very worn Assistant Sea Scout Master hat badge. I can\'t work out why the arrowhead is so good though, it might be that the rest of the embroidery was picked out for some reason. Comment posted on Wednesday 11th of September 2013 by Steve That makes sense, previous owner received warrant as Asst. Scoutmaster, 25th Soton (Northam) Sea Scouts on 18/12/1953, so it likely dates from around then. As for state of embroidery, there are some traces of other stitching but fleur-de-lys is untouched.

Badge Reference 651 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by John Ball Is this badge from Saudi Arabia a Scout badge? The only badges listed in the catalogue are a strip and a flag. The badge is quite large: 88mm x 88mm. and is embroidered. Comment posted on Friday 13th of September 2013 by Tony Dunn, BSO The Arabic being embroidered has lost much of its sharpness but it looks like it says \"Saudi Arabia\" or \"Arabia\" on each line on the right hand side.

Comment posted on Monday 29th of April 2013 by Tony Dunn As no-one else has had a go at this, and it will be archived soon, here are my thoughts. Perhaps it is a Scout Christian religious badge. XP (Ki-Ro) is the Catholic symbol for Christ; XP being the first letters for "Christos" in Greek. My 2nd thoought is that the P could stand for Pfadfinder but again a Christian badge - perhaps German or Austrian? As for country perhaps Germany, Austria or Denmark; the green looks much like the shade used by the old DEN/KFUM Comment posted on Tuesday 24th of March 2015 by Julio Morales Brazil.

Comment posted on Tuesday 26th of March 2013 by Fred Eardley Could the top right one be something to do with the extinct Rotherham Roche District in South Yorks County? District badge collectors may know better than I do. Comment posted on Wednesday 27th of March 2013 by Alan Yes, as Fred said, the Roche badge is from Rotherham Roche District, but not their uniform district badge. I believe the Thanet badge was/is Thanet Rangers (Guides), a non-recognised organisation - not sure if it is BPSA or another. Add your Comments

That Group were gifted a lease of part of the Powerscourt Estate by the Slazenger Family to be their very own campsite. It had 3 buildings - a WC, a store and a kitchen/dining room, all built and paid for by the Group.. Up until the current time, this was the only Jewish Scout Camp Site in the British Isles. Sadly the property was taken back by the Slazenger Family to enable the redevelopment of the wider Estate in c1998. The badge relates to a camp that took place in the early days of the campsite in 1953. Add your Comments

Comment posted on Thursday 28th of February 2013 by Tony Dunn As well as the British arms, dating from Richard I, the 3 gold lions on red is the arms for the Channel Islands - it appears on both the current Guernsey and Jersey Scout ECs. The C.I. are a Crown Dependency which may be the reason for the crown, the British arms does not need a crwon as it is superfluous. Of the two it is closer to the Jersey arms which used to display 2 lions on the badge but the current one has the three.. Guernsey usually shows the Guernsey lily above the lions(see EC17) which this doesn't which again indicates Jersey of the two. I dont recognise it as a Scout badge though. Add your Comments

Currently in Aire Valley District - was Bingley. The badge was designed by me around 1982 ish. It signifies the shape of the bridge which carries the road (C class yellow) over the beck. The links indicate the bridge being the link between the villages, which was also the name of the Parish Magazine (The Link). It also so happens that the yellow of the road and the blue of the beck are the Group's necker colours. The red background was just the best colour at the time that made it stand out when sewn on the necker or on the sleeve for Venture Scouts and Leaders. Add your Comments

Badge Reference 499 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Fred Eardley I know this has been around for years, but what is it, please? Comment posted on Wednesday 12th of September 2012 by Tony Dunn Hartlepool Scout District is in Cleveland. "Monkey hanger" is a term by which Hartlepudlians are often known. According to local folklore, the term originates from an incident in which a monkey was hanged in Hartlepool. During the Napoleonic wars, a French ship was wrecked off the coast of Hartlepool. The only survivor was a monkey, allegedly wearing a French uniform to provide amusement for the crew. On finding the monkey, some locals decided to hold an impromptu trial; since the monkey would not or was unable to answer their questions, they concluded that it was a French sailor, so to make sure, the animal was sentenced to death and hanged from the mast of a fishing boat on the Headland. There is a darker side to this tale. A powder monkey was a child who was used to prime the cannons with gunpowder. It could have been a young French boy who was hanged. I have seen this badge around as a Scout badge but why it was issued apart from a humerous commemorative blanket patch for Hartlepool I do not know.

Group badge or just fund raiser, I don't know. There is only one group on the Scillies - The Scillonian Group. They are in Penwith District and that badge was changed to include 'The Isles of Scilly', so maybe this badge was worn before the district badge was changed. Add your Comments

The badge books at Gilwell shows the badge was approved on 24.10.85 for the Central Pudsey Venture Scout Unit in Central Yorkshire Scout County.

Comment posted on Tuesday 31st of July 2012 by Tony Dunn This is not a Group badge but a Melton Mowbray District commemorative issued in 1979. Not sure what for. The district badge (crossed horn and riding crop) was first issued in 1976. Comment posted on Tuesday 26th of January 2021 by Carl The whole district was given one to put on the back of their necker(our church is St Mary's and is one of the largest parish churchs in the uk).Then the following year they ran a competition to celebrate what Melton Mowbray was famous for and came up with Pork pies and Stilton cheese, again this was worn on the back of the necker.

In 1924, as the school grew bigger, a new school was built in Merton Hall Road.The new school became the Wimbledon County School for Girls, which continued until 1969 when Merton first reorganised its education into a three tier system of first, middle and high schools.

I still have the one I wore. Comment posted on Tuesday 27th of October 2015 by David Baker It is certainly still in use in Kenya.

Badge Reference 460 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Fred Maarsen this badge came with a group of badges that were all from the late 50's Comment posted on Sunday 22nd of July 2012 by Tony Dunn This badge is from italy and is listed as ITALY 19 Venezia (Venice) It shows the city emblem, the Lion of St Mark. Originally a metal octagonal badge, the cloth version was issued in March 1950 from a design by the sculptor Antonio Carestiati and was obligatory from St Georges Day that year. It was used with slight colour variations until 1970 when the badge became gold on white when the ASCI unform changed to grey. Yours is the first cloth version. Add your Comments

Badge Reference 451 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Peter Can anyone confirm that this is an un-named Middlesex? I realise that the ends are a bit frayed and it is possible that the name has disappeared. However, the badge is in mint condition and looking at the back there is no sign of there being a name. The size of the ribbon and shield do not match any variety in the book. Comment posted on Monday 9th of July 2012 by Fred Eardley This is exactly like the Middlesex Army Cadet Force arm badge (2nd type) but is missing the name MIDDLESEX in gold letters below. My example of the ACF badge has the name two millimetres below the shield. Could this have been cut off? It is known that one or two ACF Counties in the 40s and 50s sometimes wore the County Scout badge , with permission, until they had their own made. Comment posted on Thursday 9th of July 2015 by Helen Dale I have a Middlesex badge which I have always believed to be a Scout County badge (can't imagine how I'd have obtained an Army Cadet badge). The design is exactly like yours but with MIDDLESEX below the shield - almost exactly where your's is cut off. Add your Comments

Comment posted on Friday 8th of June 2012 by Alan Sewell I seem to think that this might be something to do with the Boer war Comment posted on Friday 8th of June 2012 by Alan I agree with Alan, almost certainly made around 1900 to celebrate the lifting of the siege of Mafeking, and available for purchase by the general public. There were lots of similar badges made and are still fairly common to find. The patent dates would be 1894 and 1896 and refer to the general construction of the badge rather than this specific design. Add your Comments

AFCENT stands for Allied Forces Central Europe, a former name of Joint Force Command Brunssum, a NATO military command HQ. There have been two versions of the badge 38x50mm woven (the one shown) issued on 1/10/1969, The Group split up (see below) around 1968 and reopened in 1976 and reissued the same design but embroidered and larger 48x80mm approved on 25/7/1979. They ran the British programme but had an internationl membership, children of the military. The motto roughly translates as "Rise up quickly to wipe out evil" The Group split into 3 groups around 1968: 1st Mastricht International; 1st Brunssum International and 1st Geilenkirchen International. 1st AFCENT may be closed now. The design is the military AFCENT badge. Add your Comments

Badge Reference 399 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Gordon Ennis I picked this badge up this week with some other interesting badges. Maybe a scout weekend camp? Comment posted on Saturday 19th of May 2012 by Tony Dunn Hi The numbers is the date 18 to 20 August 1950 written in the American fashion of month first so it does appear to be a weekend camp. The characters dont look Japanese to me but more likely to be Chinese(Formosa later renamed Taiwan)or perhaps Korean. Many Scout badges for Formosa have a shining sun on them, Japan has a crysanthymum and Korea, a tigers head facing sideways. All three symbols were in use in 1950. Overall, I suspect it is Formosa and 2nd guess is South Korean. I dont think is is American Scouts in Korea or Formosa, despite the wigwam. The Korean War was kicking off about this time and its a bit early for American kids to be in Korea, plus I would expect the BSA badge and English to be used if that was the case. However there were many camps in Formosa in the 1950s that issued camp badges (mainly printed on a canvas type cloth) and this may be one of them. Many of them have the inverted V character with a line across (looks like a stick man) and many also have a square with a vertical line though it, the character for "China" usually at the beginning or the end of the line of characters. Some Formosan badges also used the plain Scout badge as shown, hence my reasoning. Comment posted on Saturday 19th of May 2012 by Gordon Ennis For those interested I came across a photo and listing of this badges being identified as the second Japanese jamboree. Comment posted on Saturday 19th of May 2012 by Mike Gosling The second All-Japan Camporee was held from August 18–20, 1950 this is from that event.

Badge Reference 390 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Mike Gosling This badge came to me with an assortment of badges from various countries. Comment posted on Sunday 15th of April 2012 by Tony Dunn Here are my thoughts. At first I thought it was a ships hull and a wigwam tent. Then I realised its a ships hull and crossed oars. So it could be a sea scout troop badge or regatta. The intersting thing is the 3st, when one would think it should be 3rd for third. Is it third in another language? Its not the abrreviation in French, Spanish or Italian, but the language abrreaviation could help solve the country. The ships hull remeinds me of the membership badge for the Faroe Islands (Danish) 3st is street slang for 1) the word 'thirst' and 2) a Californian clothing company. However the white upright in the centre of the FdL could be used as a figure 1 I suppose, making it 31st in English. Sorry Mike not an answer but perhaps avenues to explore? Add your Comments

Badge Reference 378 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Peter Over the years I have collected a number of this type of lanyard are coming from badge collections etc. This particular one arrived recently and the sender said that it was a Senior Scout Lanyard. Can anyone add anything to this, please. Comment posted on Tuesday 13th of March 2012 by Paul Mckenzie Looks like a Bushman's Thong. As a Senior Scout in the 50-60's UK, I made mine out of leather (you had to make it yourself). Comment posted on Tuesday 13th of March 2012 by Tony Dunn As far as I know the bushmans thong was always leather and came with instructions. This doesnt look leather or any of the other official cords I know of such as Scout Cords green silky cord and earlier ones awarded for a number of proficiency badges were thinner cord) so I would guess its just a camp lanyard or perhaps a troop tradition of the PLs wearing a fancy lanyard. Comment posted on Thursday 15th of March 2012 by Peter Many thanks for the comments regarding this shoulder cord. The Bushman's Thong was originally leather and a more ornate knotting with a couple of turks heads involved. In 1952, due to leather shortages, the leather was changed to a gold cord with the same knots as the leather issue. This cord was the same type as the lanyard and was only in use for about 4 years. The one pictured came with the badges that the owner was awarded and didn't include Kings/Queens Scout or all the relevant proficiency. I have this shoulder cord in maroon, khaki and white all being the same "lanyard" type cord and also in blue, green, red and black whaich are all a shiney nylon type cord. The mystery deepens!!

You also had to obtained an instructors badge, and put in regular service after gaining the instructors badge. Not an easy badge to gain. Add your Comments
Badge Reference 316 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Fred Eardley I have been asked to help identify this. I was told the following 'Attached is a photo of a pin badge of the fleur de lys with a crown on it. I know it dates from the late 1930s and was given to me as part of a lot which included a badge/brooch commemorating the opening of Beaudesert camp on Cannock Chase in 1938 by the then Princess Royal. Does this badge have something to do with that or could it possibly be a Kings Scout lapel pin?' Any info would be welcome, please. Comment posted on Thursday 22nd of December 2011 by Alan It looks Hungarian. Given that it is 1930s, this would tie up with the 1933 World Jamboree in Hungary. Comment posted on Friday 23rd of December 2011 by Tony Dunn I agree with Alan. The shape of the FdL and the shape of Crown particularly all look Hungarian. This crown appears on their old national badges c1933-1944 and again on their current national badge from 1988. Add your Comments
Badge Reference 315 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Eduardo Peixe hi anyone can help me with this badge? what is it? and what's the meaning of the several colours? Comment posted on Friday 16th of December 2011 by Tony Dunn This is what is known as the Ki-Ro badge worn by Roman Catholic sponsored groups in UK. The Green version is the general one which is listed as UK 6 but seems to have been missed on the latest list. The other colours are different grades of proficiency. The current versions are diamond shaped; the ribbon versions are the old ones. Ki-Ro is the X P monogram on the badge - the first two letters in Greek of the word "Christos" meaning Christ. Comment posted on Saturday 17th of December 2011 by Eduardo Peixe Thanks for your info, but can identify each colour? what each colour means?

Badge Reference 307 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Mike I have been informed that this is from Albania. Can anyone confirm this or otherwise. Comment posted on Friday 23rd of December 2011 by Tony Dunn Mike - I would say this badge is definately not Albanian, I have some old Albanan and pictures of others but it is nothing like any of them. I have just noticed the letters IBS along the bottom. This is a common abbreviation for INTERNATIONAL BOY SCOUTS. They were multinational troops which because of their multinationlity could not be registed with just one country and so were registered directly with the world bureau. I know of tonly hree: 1st IBS Yokohama Japan. Originally started life as a BGA but was the first to be registered under the World Bureau in the 1920s. Only IBS still going, Their badge has a FdL with a globe in the centre, so not this one. IBS Canal Zone. Early 1950s and 1960s now closed. Had a double ring design with FdL in middle. IBS Beirut Lebanon. Similar badge to Panama Canal except for wording, often in arabic. Your badge has the red bars of what looks like the Scouts de France cross in the background and Lebanon was once French so there may be a connection? The green and white halved might help to identify the country. Have you tried our Lebanese member, Serge Abou Rjeily? Might just be a red herring of course but worth a try. Comment posted on Friday 23rd of December 2011 by Tony Dunn Another thought. Have they confused Albania with ALGERIA? Perhaps its Franch SdF in Algeria? French SdF Cross on the Green and white halved flag of Algeria as seen on other Algerian badges? Don't know what else IBS would mean in this case though. Add your Comments

What I would like to know is what the GCGG stands for. Comment posted on Sunday 20th of November 2011 by John Lewis Mike: I have done some detective work & have some clues. Firstly whilst it looks like a Brownie Thrift Proficiency badge, the UK versions are flat on the top not the bottom. Secondly Ghana GGA (formerly the called the Gold Coast, pre-independence in 1957)were raising funds for a Training Centre 1952 - 1956 & used a "Bee badge" under the slogan "Bees make honey Guides make money". So that's my guess! Add your Comments

Badge Reference 273 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Peter No idea what this one is. Any help appreciated. Comment posted on Sunday 2nd of October 2011 by Tony Dunn In 1942 there was an important and very arduous battle between the Japanese and Australians along the Kokoda Trail/Track in PNG, abotu 50kms from Port Moresby. The Kokoda Challenge on the Gold Coast is hailed as Australia's toughest endurance event and is held in commemoration of the Aussie victory. Participants trek a 96km course that leads along fire trails, cross 12 rivers and summit 5,000m of vertical elevation. The goal is to finish as a complete team of four in honour of the spirit forged on the Kokoda Track in 1942: comradeship, endurance, courage and sacrifice. Not 100% certain but the badge is most likely a Trek badge (not necessarily Scout) as shown by the hills and war memorial. The fires could denote the fire trails. Comment posted on Saturday 3rd of January 2015 by Tony Peck This is the 1960, 1st National Senior Scout Venture, Territory of Papua & New Guinea (TPNG). Route was along the original WW2 Kokoda Track used by "Diggers" from Port Moresby to Kokoda. Attended by Seniors from TPNG, Australia,Pacific Islds. Independence was 1975 when it became Papua New Guinea (PNG). Two badge varieties : one shows "blue snow" on Mountain(obtained from original Sam Daish collection), other variety shows "white snow" on Mountain. Add your Comments

Any information is appreciated Comment posted on Tuesday 2nd of November 2021 by Andrew I've seen this badge many years ago at a South African Army regiment reunion and worn by a couple of blokes who would have served long before me. It's not an official badge I've ever come across - either for the SA Scouts or SA Army - so my best guess is it was privately made for former Rovers serving in the Army (denoted by the crossed swords).

My district badge was Queensland HQ (badge number 2).I do not know if this is still the case with regards the scarf abdge but I will find out when I am there next month!

Comment posted on Tuesday 23rd of August 2011 by Mike I agree with Tony this is a Pathfinder badge. These were worn by Black Scouts in all the Provinces of South Africa not just in Transvaal Province. Pathfinding, as part of the S.A. Boy Scout Movement, was established in 1922. The badges exist in several colours, in woven as shown and embroidered felt. Pathfinder Scouts also existed in Bechuanaland Protectorate. Add your Comments

A follow-up to the 1959 Declaration of the Rights of the Child, the proclamation was intended to draw attention to problems that affected children throughout the world, including malnutrition and lack of access to education. Many of these efforts resulted in the Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1989. Many Scout Associations ran activities and raised money for this event, including the issue of badges.

Badge Reference 146 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by dave gray Is this BSO/BGA B3? Comment posted on Wednesday 20th of July 2011 by Tony Dunn This is not one I have seen before. All the West Bengal badges (of which 3 versions are known, are large squares, two on maroon and one on green and all depict a tiger head) and were worn by British military Rover Crews around the early 1950s. Bengal was split into East and West Bengal in 1947 so it dates after this. There were probably about 6 Crews in West Bengal then and we know that the badges were not standardised so each Crew obtained (or failing that, made)the badge supplies where it could. So it may be, or may not be a version of BSO/BGA B3 Rover Crew badge but sorry, no other information available at the moment. What size is it and is it a square ribbon folded into a triangle? Tony Dunn BGA County Historian. Comment posted on Thursday 21st of July 2011 by dave gray It is a triangle with small folded edges. Size 100mm across the top with sides of 110mm each. Screen printed on cotton. It recently came from Indian with some current badges. Add your Comments

Badge Reference 136 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Steve Badge is 60mm wide with Arabic script. Comment posted on Saturday 16th of July 2011 by Tony Dunn This is definately Arabic and translates as "The Truth of (the) Life." It is not a quote from the Koran but may be a line of poetry. It may mean something like 'Children are our future' It is not the International Year of the Child symbol but may be something similar. There is no country of origin on the badge but Arabic can be classical or dialect, the 2nd of which can identfy a region. Leave it with me and I will check it out. Tony Dunn Comment posted on Thursday 11th of August 2011 by Tony Dunn I have checked out the Arabic but unfortunately there are insufficient words to indentify the dialect or country. There are not other marks to identfy its country of origin - sorry! Add your Comments

There is not a lot there except for Hazelbury Manor a 14th Century manor house. So it could be a tourist badge for the Manor.

"Advance Australia" was an advertising logo and derived from the Australian National Anthem, "Advance Australia Fair". It was a means of encouraging Australians to back Australian products rather like we once had an "I'm Backing Britain" campaign years ago. The badge also appeared on carrier bags, T-shirts, in newspapers, on television and other advertising paraphanalia. Add your Comments

It was not registered with County Commissioner and only had a small run. It was from the later 1970s and probably not issued after 1982. The figure is a representation of a roman soldier.

Badge Reference 80 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Nigel Chapman Clives Group Badges Comment posted on Monday 16th of May 2011 by Tony Dunn Dont recognise the badge but can tell you about the initials. “Ad majorem Dei gloriam” or “Ad maiorem Dei gloriam” is often abbreviated to AMDG, and is the motto of the Society of Jesus, (Jesuits) a religious order of the Roman Catholic Church. Its Latin, meaning "To the greater glory of God" and is believed to have been coined by the founder of the religious order, Saint Ignatius of Loyola. When images of Saint Ignatius depict him carrying a book, the motto is often inscribed on it — representative of the religious writings of the saint. I cant find a 78th St Ignatius Scouts on Google though - sorry. Add your Comments

I believe this to be a Group badge for the 3rd Bodmin in Cornwall. I have one in a collection and that is how it is listed. Perhaps others may confirm this. Kind regards Richard Hampshire Scout Heritage Badge Custodian Comment posted on Sunday 15th of May 2011 by Fred Eardley This is certainly one of the group badges of the 3rd Bodmin Group. It is the first type worn between 1984 and 1993. It was also produced with a black border, which I believe was sold to members of the group at the time as a blanket badge. Only 250 of the black border ones were produced, I was told. The second and third types worn both have the group name on them. Add your Comments

Comment posted on Thursday 26th of May 2011 by Fred Eardley I agree with Tony that this is probably Austrian. N. O.

Comment posted on Saturday 26th of March 2011 by Richard Spearing This badge is as Alan says but I am not sure it is obsolete for the training team. Someone from Berkshire would need to confirm this. Comment posted on Wednesday 30th of March 2011 by mark parry i believe this badge was for the county team suggest you contact jenny/dennis gudgeon who may clarify this Add your Comments

Badge Reference 13 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Dave Gray From Cyprus but what is it? Group badge? Comment posted on Tuesday 1st of March 2011 by James Akrotiri, Cyprus British Group Badge (RAF) Comment posted on Tuesday 1st of March 2011 by Fred Eardley This is a group badge worn by 58th Cyprus (Akrotiri) Group. Comment posted on Sunday 6th of March 2011 by Tony Dunn This is the scarf badge for 58th Cyprus (RAF Akrotir) British Scouts in Cyprus who are part of the Boy Scouts of Cyprus. THere have been 4 versions. The first one was registered with HQ in February 1964 and was fully bound. The second was 1/2 bound bottom left and top right edges and was used up to 1973 when it was reissued in ribbon form. In 1979 smaller version replaced it showing a pink flamaingo instead of a silver one. The flamingo design comes from the RAF Akrotiri station crest which was adopted because Akrotiri has a large salt lake next to it where hundreds of pink flamingos feed. The Group is still in existance and still use the badge Add your Comments

Badge Reference 9 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Alan Is this an early Brownie leader badge? It has three fixing loops on the back. Marked Thos Fattorini Ld, Skipton Comment posted on Tuesday 15th of February 2011 by Peter Mo The company Thomas Fattorini still exists. http://www.fattorini.co.uk/About_Us.aspx I wonder whether they could help? Comment posted on Wednesday 16th of February 2011 by Alan Fattorini say that it is pre 1919, which would fit. I know that this design (or very similar) was registered to the GGA on 23 Dec 1915. Comment posted on Tuesday 1st of March 2011 by Alan GGUK Archives have no record of this badge, but their records for this era are limited. It is remarkably similar to the Brownie Acorn membership badge....... Add your Comments

Comment posted on Tuesday 15th of February 2011 by Tony Dunn THis is probably a Group badge for a sponsored Group of St Peters church. Crossed keys are a popular emblem for him, Dont know where though. Comment posted on Monday 28th of February 2011 by Ian Boden This is the scarf bage of the Chalfont Heights Campsite Service crew. The badge represents the cross keys of St. Peter, as the campsite is in the village of Chalfont St. Peters, Bucks.1xu Comment posted on Tuesday 1st of March 2011 by Alan Thanks Ian, I think you are right.

Badge Reference 6 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Bruce Meldrum Found this in the bottom of my swap box - any clues welcome Thanks, Bruce. Comment posted on Sunday 13th of February 2011 by DAVID MARSH, #02/89 This is BSO/BGA J1 Jeddah (Saudi Arabia.) (Arabic writing on blue and red wavy lines.)EXT. Hope this helps. Comment posted on Sunday 13th of February 2011 by Tony Dunn Daves id is correct. The badge design shows the name JEDDAH in arabic written right to left. The red wavy lines on blue represent the Red Sea, where Jeddah is situated, in South Arabia. The red, white and blue of the badge matches the red, white and blue of the BGA county badge and represents the colours of the Union Flag for British Groups. There are two slight versions of the badge, the second has thicker writing which is depicted here. There were only two British Groups in the District, based at the Preparatory School and the Continental School. Now extinct, the badges were used 1985-1999 so a good find.

Badge Reference 3 Date posted Tuesday 18th of August 2020		Badge posted by Bruce Meldrum Might not be a Scout badge, but thought I'd ask here..... Comment posted on Wednesday 10th of March 2010 by Peter Maryniak Definately a scout badge but where from ?? Comment posted on Friday 2nd of September 2022 by Fran It looks hand made, it may not be an official badge Comment posted on Tuesday 6th of February 2024 by Jerry Just because it is a manual creation does not mean that it is not official. Many insignia of the first decades were handmade. The stars confirm that it is a scout badge. Add your Comments
