Patrol/Den Medallions
The question was when could WEBELOS Cub Scouts could "identify" as a "something den" as opposed to a "numbered den".
In the new two-year WEBELOS Cub Scout program, the members of the WEBELOS Den can "identify themselves" as a "something" Den ("something" meaning
taking on the name of a Patrol name). There are more than 35 established Boy Scout Patrol names that a Den could take on:
(Full color versions of all of these and older Patrol medallions may
be found on the Patrol Patch site.
It is linked to the right side on this page under "Patrol Medallions".)
The Den can decide ANYTIME during the year to switch from being "Den 5" to
"Liberty Den" or "Generic Den" or "Pedro Den." Note that they are STILL called a DEN....the word "patrol" only refers to BOY SCOUT PATROLS and the Boy Scouting program; WEBELOS Cub Scouts are still in the Cub Scout program which has Dens.
Den medallions are worn on the Cub Scout uniform in the same location and same position (position 2, right sleeve). The WEBELOS Badge colors may hide the Patrol medallion if worn; the badge colors are worn in the space between the US Flag and the Den Medallion (see below).
On the Boy Scout uniform, the Patrol medallion is worn on the right shoulder, position two, below the US Flag emblem with some space given for the Baden-Powell Patrol honor star(s).
The B-P Patrol Honor star is NOT earned by WEBELOS Cub Scouts.
