Monsignor Mynaugh (not Minor) is the correct spelling. I knew him and worked on the 41st International Eucharistic Congress.

I know a few times in my Council, there were opportunities to design a patch for an event. In one case mine was chosen for Pow-Wow and my son did one for District.

Two small corrections to Jon's presentation: 1920 was the first world jamboree, held in England. 1924 was the second held in Denmark. 1935 was confirmed cancelled due to Polio

Great point about duplicate named towns, because there MANY examples.

Had some really great times at camp Uwharrie,it was very sad to hear that camp was being sold very sad for future boys who will never get to experience the feel of camp Uwharrie I'm Eagle Scout David Hunt from Troop 273 of Lexington N.C ,center hill Church, From 1973 thur1978,79 I'm still participate in things I learned in scouting for I still hike and camp on Appalachian trail,iI was member of OA as well.

🙏🏻

no Nibiru? ;)

The camp was closed prior to 1980. Eagle Island was open from 79 back. I was there on 80 putting new roofs on the quads and putting in new septic tanks and everything else prior to the 80 opening. Explain that to me please.

I just came across your videos and it really brought back the memories for me from several of the camps highlighted in your series. The troop I was with always went to Camp Semiconon and we were there for the last season of that camp. People were literally tearing up on the last day knowing "our" camp was closing for good. After that we had to go to Camp Anawanna and all the troops that got relocated to Anawanna that first year would sing the Semiconion camp song whenever the staff tried to get us to do the Anawanna camp song (driving the Anawanna camp staff crazy). 😂

I wish all lodges documented their patch history like you did with yours. The stories behind the flaps really add a lot.

catalog number Cake 1 LOL, do you have to keep your collection in the freezer? ;)

It stated that the 1922 OSC at the state fair also was a "service camp". Maybe in 1923 they split them up - had the service camp in Sacramento and the OSC in Santa Barbara

4th annual OSC in 1924? means the first was in 1921, not 1922

very well done....more people need to watch this...it is a serious lesson on cheerful service from the very depth of your soul...freely and willingly...

I was there as a British Scout, remember the closing ceremony, Burl Ives, the Rocky theme and fireworks!

BSA has always been a wet blanket on many issues, I've had the unpleasantness of such a desist letter.

Oh wow, I knew this Bill Spengler when he lived in Colorado Springs, he had been an ambassador in Afghanistan, and we were in Kyrgyzstan together when he told me the BP story!

Dr. Flatt, I really enjoyed the trip down memory lane with your presentation. Well done. I met Bill a few times at different functions and he always had time to visit with you and do a little trading. It was incredible how his little book changed and grew the hobby compared to the dark ages in the 60's. As most of us move into our 70's (mature years) the hobby has slowed down a bit and the missing numbers and names have become even more scarce. I'm an ASM for a 2 year old girls troop and the Scouts from our troop who went to the Jamboree this past summer were thrilled to get to trade the bag of flaps & patches I provided for them to learn the hobby.

Good luck with the auction!

I attended the 1969 OA convention at UI in Bloomington....I played trumpet in the band.

What was the patch that BP was wearing above his right pocket with the arrow through it?

Winnebago Scout Reservation was sold many years ago and is no longer a Scout Camp.

Heart of America Council, the 4th symbol is for Tribe of Mic-o-say at Bartle Scout Reservation

Three Harbors Council in Wisconsin, only has one current camp : Oh-Da-Ko-Ta. RS Lyle and Lefeber Northwoods Camps were sold back in 2015. Then last year, Indian Mound Reservation was also sold. IMR was one on the oldest Scout camps in the country, opened in 1917.

Those monkeys will never become a human.

The Lodge 33 booklet is for the 42-43 year as they have blank line for new lodge Chief.

I have info from a lodge booklet that explains some things about the Ajapeu 33 Flap. Some of the first ones were said to be sew on the uniform, but I have not come across anything to back it up. I will post photos of our lodge book and the pages that explains some of the info of the the flap and where to place it.

Great amount of research went into this, answered questions for me!

Montana Council has only one set of camp council patches that I know of. It is for the 50th Anniversary of K-M Scout Ranch (read as K Bar M). There are six council patches and one jacket patch in the set. The council patches show the three historical camp buildings, one in full color and one in all gold mylar. The jacket patch shows the fancy, new lodge building opened in 2019. May 18, 1980 is the day Mount St Helens erupted.

This is a DARPA code exercise.

I was able to locate an article about the Baden Loleta 405 patch. Troop 405 was a large troop from Baden, PA. and they attended Camp Loleta.

Hyas = great Chuck = river Kah = where Sun = sun Klatawa = goes Refers to the Columbia which flows to the west where the sun sets.

Thank you Robert, always great information.

This is a good video. It's nice to hear how the lodge changed over the years when I ended as the last Kiasutha Lodge chief

Your video was awesome!! You should research Promo-SM.

Great job Jeff! You provided a lot of very helpful information and images.

I never knew Rick O. designed Aal-Pa-Tah and O-Shot-Caw patches. Thanks Rick for doing this patch history lesson. I learned a lot.

Wow this was fascinating

a knot for earning every merit badge? hopefully, that's never approved. AFAIK, nobody was ever intended to chase every merit badge in some sort of completionist frenzy. if you've Eagled early, your time would be better spent pursuing Summit or Quartermaster. Given that many merit badges provide only an initial exposure to a life skill, career field, or hobby, it would be better to focus one's energy towards mastering something(s) specific: a varsity sport, a musical instrument, etc.

Nicely done!

Fantastic, I really enjoyed your lecture!

Thank you for this presentation

Great stuff James, thanks for your info !

I always enjoy hearing stories about the older conferences, keep up the great work! See you at the next conference.

We miss a great chance.

I have a canadian patch made for this jamboree,,i sent away for information to attend and received a patch in 79,,still have it

Very informative. Thanks.

My granddather Sarel Johannes Eloff was taken here along with 4500 troups nd shipped to saint Helena

The round Norumbega camp patch with the segments was used into the late 60's
