The uniform makes the Boy Scout troop visible as a force for good and creates a positive youth image in the community.

The uniform gives the Boy Scout identity in a world brotherhood of youth who believe in the same ideals. The uniform is practical attire for Boy Scout activities and provides a way for Boy Scouts to wear the badges that show what they have accomplished.
