The scout sign

finger pointed upward , the thumb folded over the little finger. The forearm forms a right angle with the
upper arm which is horizontally in line with the shoulders.

meaning as the three components of the scout trefoil . they also signify that a scout reaches upward to
bigger joined together represents the unity of the scouting movement and symbolize the bond of the
brotherhood that binds all scouts of the world together.
c. Its uses . the scout sign is used by scouts when he makes a solemn pledge while reciting the scout oath
and law, as well as the panunumpa sa watawat . it is also used as a greeting of recognition sign among
scouts and scouters all over the world.
The Badge is divided into two parts:
1. The scroll (symbolizes the smile of a scout)
2. The trefoil (symbolizes the three duties of a scout: duty to god , duty to
others and duty to self.)
● The three stars represents Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao as well as
truth , faith and knowledge respectively. The stars under which we
sleep or hike on during camping
● The sun as a whole represents Liberty and freedom. The 8 rays of
the sun represents the first 8 provinces (Manila, Bulacan,
Pampanga, Batangas , tarlac , nueva ecija , cavite , and laguna )that
fought against the Spanish rule .
The Scout Salute
How executed . The scout salute is made with the right hand in the scout sign. The hand
is brought up smartly (taking the shortest distance) with the forefinger touching the edge
of the right eyebrow . If wearing a brimmed cap or hat, the forefinger must touch the brim
slightly to the side of the right eye.
When in uniform, the salute is rendered as a sign of respect to the flag and the National
Anthem. It is also used between Scouts and as a sign of courtesy and respect.
The Scout Handshake
Scouts all over the world use the Scout Handshake. Scouts everywhere great each other with a warm left
handshake . using it makes one feel that he belongs to the world of brotherhood of scouting and that he is
one among the millions of scouts in various parts of the world dedicated to the same ideal of service.
A scout shakes hands with another scout with the left hand. The grandson of an Ashanti Chief who fought
against b-p told this story of the origin of the scout left handshake . when the chief surrended to b-p , the
latter extended his right hand as a token of friendship. The Ashanti Chief however , insisted on shaking with
the left hand, explaining , “the bravest of the brave shake hands with the left hand, because in order to do
so , they must throw away their greatest protection , their shield.” Thus Scouts and Pathfinders shake
hands with the left hand as proof of their good faith and true friendliness.
