rlculver415 10 Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 We have our first Eagle who has earned a palm. The question is: Where on the uniform does he wear it? We can find no picture or instruction on this. Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites
Twocubdad 665 Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 Scous wear the palms pinned to the ribbon of their Eagle medal. There is no provision for Scouts to wear the palm other than on the medal, say, pinned to the eagle patch. Adults pin the palms in the center of their Eagle square knot.

Fat Old Guy 11 Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 I'd never tell an Eagle that he couldn't wear his palms on his patch. Link to post Share on other sites
Twocubdad 665 Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 Neither would I, but if he asks the proper way to wear it, I'll give him the above answer. Link to post Share on other sites
Bob White 20 Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 The bigger question is not "would you tell a scout that he is doing it wrong?" but, will you teach him how to do it right? Bob White Link to post Share on other sites
LauraT7 13 Posted October 16, 2003 Share Posted October 16, 2003 Think of it this way - If he is wearing his uniform - FULL uniform with badge sash - then he has his Eagle rank patch and all the badges that show he has earned additional palms.... If he is an young adult or leader (moved up in the troop) and wears his square knot, he can wear the palms on it - if he wears/ displays the Eagle ribbon, the palms go on it... any of the above three ways show what he has accomplished - right?

le Voyageur 72 Posted October 16, 2003 Share Posted October 16, 2003 Since Plams are not ranks, I've alway's wished that National would make a blank "square knot" so that those who have earned more than one would have a place to wear them....kinda hard to get five Plams on one Eagle square knot...

Bob White 20 Posted October 16, 2003 Share Posted October 16, 2003 Out of curiosity le Voyageur is that four silvers and a gold, or four silvers and a bronze. Wonderful effort by the way. Kudos, Bob White Link to post Share on other sites
