Earned youth patch
A scout badge is an embroidered patch awarded to members of scouting organizations for demonstrating specific skills or completing requirements in areas like camping, first aid, or citizenship.
Scouts wear these badges on their uniforms as visible markers of achievement: She earned her swimming scout badge last summer.
The term sometimes appears figuratively for any credential earned through demonstrated competence.
