This would need to specify what uniform and what Scouting organisation. Obviously the Scouts or Beavers in the UK would be different than Scouts in the BSA. – KevinManx Aug 10 '12 at 14:29
Of course, but usually these types of things are just starting points. – PearsonArtPhoto Aug 10 '12 at 18:04

This question is not a good fit to our Q&A format. We expect answers to generally involve facts, references, or specific expertise; this question will likely solicit opinion, debate, arguments, polling, or extended discussion.

What is Scouting all about?
added by Andrew Sep 8 '12 at 8:40
link|flag
This is way too broad for this site. One could imagine books being written on this subject. Try to think of a question that a real scout or scoutmaster might face instead. Good luck! :) – jmort253 Oct 15 '12 at 0:58
This scouting assistant (ie me) has been asked that very question several times........ the "example" questions all seem very local or contrived - surely they also need to be a bit more holistic if the site is to attract people? – Andrew Oct 15 '12 at 6:02
