This honor counts toward:
Earlier designs of this patch. See all outdated insignia.
The Flags patch originally was misprinted with the Master Guide flag with wrong colors. The colors in this misprint had two cantons that were red, much like the AY flag. The correct colors for the cantons on the Master Guide flag are yellow and blue. The different colors are supposed to represent the two younger clubs that a Master Guide is equipped to lead: yellow for the Adventurer club and blue for the Pathfinder club.
