War Services Awarded to Boy Scouts in War Effort
The Boy Scouts association authorized red and gold war service badges for Scouts who complete eighty four hours of voluntary work for military and public authorities, Red Cross and patriotic efforts. A second badge honors one hundred days of at least two hours daily service. Thousands have qualified, including Wolf Cubs, with Scouts contributing in messenger roles, farm labor, waste paper drives, port duty, and support for soldiers and families. Some aided shipyard work on submarines, with many refusing payment to keep the effort as daily good turns.
