    • As I have aged to old coot or goat status, I find few things surprise or tryly annoy me.  Not worth the bile.  As long as the YP is in place and the Scouter means well and is focused on the youth growing, what is the big deal?  
    • I've seen it a handful of times but what reminded me of this was seeing 2 in one camp, but in different units.  I actually find it helpful, if everyone abides by the square knot rule it's easy to tell who is a late-teens scout vs. a late-teens adult. 
    • I was an Explorer for 4 years and wore the square knot with dark green background.  The pocket had the patch shown in my profile pic to the left. I earned Eagle as an Explorer, so never wore the oval rank patch...which was OK with me.  
    • I think the rule might be or might have been that 18-20 is youth in the exploring/venturing/seascout programs so they qualify as youth and youth can wear rank badges. 
    • Once upon a time, Explorers, and Venturers, before the Venturing ranks came about,  age 18-20 could still wear their Eagle on their green shirts. One of my national scout shop employees, age 19, wore the knot on tan uniform, but his Eagle patch on the green uniform, which was allowed at camp. This was 2001.
