BSA Uniforms: The Boy Scouts of America has always been a uniformed body. Its uniforms help to create a sense of belonging. They symbolize character development, citizenship training, and personal fitness. Wearing a uniform gives youth and adult members a sense of identification and commitment. The Guide to Awards and Insignia presents detailed information to enable BSA® members to wear the correct and complete uniform on all suitable occasions. The BSA uniform website is also a great resource.
