Where/when possible, the contents of this publication has been reviewed with a number of field professionals and volunteers, the BSA's official uniforming and insignia guides, and with several Councils' program guides to insure consistancy with current National policy and uniforming guidance.

Elements of this publication reflect the consoldated opinions of Scouters from the Scouts-L youth programs electronic mailing list, and has been supplemented by scanned images, digital/still photographs and line drawings featuring current or past BSA national and several local Council insignia and uniforming items. Insignia displaying one or more of the BSA's official indicia are ©Boy Scouts of America; insignia appearing without an official indicia may be the property of the Boy Scouts of America if listed in a present or previous edition of the BSA's Insignia (Control) Guide.
