Boys Brigade

The Boys' Brigade is an international Christian youth organization similar to, but older than, the Boy Scouts, established in 1883. The badge is a golden anchor on a red Geneva Cross flanked by golden letter 'B's. The motto, 'Sure and Steadfast', is often placed beneath the badge. See www.boys-brigade.org.uk for more info.

The Boys' Brigade was founded in Glasgow by William Smith. That’s why they wear the Glengarry (the Scottish military hat) as part of their uniform. They don’t have a flag in the way that the Scouts do, but they do have Colours for each troop. The design of these varies between troops with some using the ensign design shown here, but others use defaced Union Flags and Saltires.
