gerard99 10 Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 I have a question about Service Stars. I have heard from different sources different things. Does an Adult add up all his years in scouts and wear that number with the light blue background, or do you wear a star for cub scout years, a star for boy scout years, and another star for Adult Leadership?

FScouter 24 Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 According to the Insignia Guide, either way is correct. Link to post Share on other sites
Oak Tree 15 Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 No surprise, my Insignia Guide says exactly the same thing that FScouter's does. So it's purely personal preference. My observation is that around here most of the people wear separate stars. That's what I do - I guess I like the idea of showing where those years were spent, and whether I was a Scout who went through the program. As a downside, it does mean that there are more things to keep track of whenever the shirt is due for a washing. Oak Tree Link to post Share on other sites
jr56 92 Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Yes, either way is correct. I just total my years (27) and wear the appropriate number of stars with the light blue background. Link to post Share on other sites
