"A Scout is reverent." All Scouts
show this by being devote to their faith. Some go further and give special
service. This can qualify them for a religious emblem. Such an emblem is not a
Scouting award, however, the Boy Scouts of America has approved these programs
and allows the emblems to be worn on the official Scout uniform. It is conferred
on a Scout by his religious leader. Each faith has its own requirements for
earning its emblem.
Most of the awards consist of bar pins, ribbons, and pendants, and are worn on
the uniform above the left pocket on formal occasions. In addition, the
Religious Emblem Square knot, (shown at right), may be worn on the uniform over
the left pocket by youth or adults who earned or have been awarded the religious
awards. One or more miniature devices are affixed to the knot to indicate which
level(s) of the award was earned. |
