Uniform Details
Troop 132 Uniforms Standards
      
1.      Wearing the Boy Scout uniform is a symbol of commitment to scouting and other Scouts and gives
the Scout an identity in a world brotherhood of youth who believe in the same ideals and, therefore,
should be visible when worn.  An exception to this is when the weather is cold and a jacket is required for
warmth.  
2.      There are three different Uniform Classes:  Class A +, Class A and Class B.  All uniforms should be
properly fitted and in good repair with required patches and current rank emblem neatly sewn or glued
on.  You will need the following items to fulfill the uniform classes:
  •        A tan Boy Scout shirt either long or short sleeve
  •        A round purple “World Crest” patch above the left pocket
  •        The Arrow of Light badge or pin if crossing over from Cub Scouts below left pocket
  •        The Mohegan Council patch and 132, our Troop number, on the left shoulder sleeve
  •        Boy Scout epaulets, which are the green shoulder loops
  •        A bolo tie, in place of the neckerchief and slide
  •        Tan or green pants and shorts if desired for warmer weather
  •        Green BSA uniform belt
  •        Green BSA socks
  •        Troop 132 blue t-shirt and hat, which can only be purchased through the Troop’s Equipment
    Coordinator
3.        Class A + uniform is required at all formal dress events, including Boards of Review, Courts of
Honor, parades, and other events as deemed appropriate by the Scoutmaster.  The blue Troop hat,
dungaree pants or shorts and/or sneakers are NOT part of the Class A + uniform.  The Class A +
uniform includes:
  •     Tan Boy Scout shirt, with appropriate patches, sashes and award pins, green epaulets and
    bolo tie
  •       Tan or green pants or shorts with green BSA uniform belt
  •       Clean hiking boots or flat dress shoes with green BSA socks
4.        Class A uniform is required at all scout meetings and Scoutmaster Conferences and other events
as deemed appropriate by the Scoutmaster.  The Class A uniform is the same as Class A + with the
following exceptions:
  •        A long or short sleeve shirt may be worn under the scout shirt for warmth
  •        Dungarees and dungaree shorts may be worn but must be neat and presentable, with no
    holes, tears or fading, and worn appropriately with no under garments showing
  •        Clean sneakers may be worn
5.        Class B uniform is required at all other scout events including but not limited to outdoor activities
and community service.  
  •        Troop 132 blue t-shirt
  •        Troop 132 blue hat
  •        Footwear should be sensible and appropriate for the event
6.        Gym shorts, sports attire of any kind, and sweatpants, should never be worn as part of any scout
uniform.
7.        Class A + and Class A uniforms are worn with no hat.  Class B uniforms includes a hat and must
be Troop 132’s baseball cap or winter hat, both of which can be purchased from the Equipment
Coordinator.
8.        The Troop will maintain a uniform exchange of donated uniform items.  Members of the Troop are
welcome to use these items, but are expected to return them in a clean, usable condition when no longer
needed.
