Bronze Award Device
When you complete the requirements for a particular Bronze Award, you will
earn a Bronze Award device similar to a military campaign ribbon that you
may wear on your uniform. Earning the whole Sea Scouting Quartermaster or

award of its own. For more information on these two challenging awards,
