Patrol Flags

[PETAL_MS_SCOUTER 10]

Can anyone direct me to a web site or page(s)that feature either patrol flags or instructions on putting patrol flags together?

 

Thanks in advance ...

There really isn't a "standard" patrol flag anymore. They can be anything (within reason) that the patrol desires.

 

In our troop we have a banner (hangs from a horizontal member of the staff), a few regular flags and large staff that is decorated with totems.

There should be available in the BSA catalog patrol flags to go with the standard patrol emblems. I have rarely seen these used. Most patrols get creative.

Memories of my 1st handbook surface late 60's 6th ed I think (green bckgrnd w/ hiking scout.)

 

I seem to remeber lots of illustrations w/ very original designs.... Pennants, plackards, banners, even a coupla basic BSA issued oversize patol patches on the white background. Sorry, I lean toward the "one of a kinds" but don't have a good source for samples. I'm sure this topic floats by every 6 months or so... Has anyone searched "patrol flags" lately?

 

Does one need to have personally consumed the flesh of the subject animal in order to use hides or skins in scout projects?

 

Sorry, now I'm going to have to consider wshether I'd even recommend the use of fake fur.

 

relax, just kidding

I checked scoutstuff.org and it has no listing for patrol flags.
