  1. ESTAS EQUIVOCADO, ESTA INSIGNIA NO ERA DE USCA (UNION DE SCOUTS CATOLICOS ARGENTINOS)

  2. I received this insignia The top picture) in 1972. I was member of a St. Agustine troop in Barrio Norte, Buenos Aires as part of INSA/ASA. It was a golden metal on cloth. I still have it on my old uniform; However, another scout received with me the same day and his badge was the National Emblem like the second picture. I remember that the National Commissioner Lantieri who gave us these badges, told us that they had a shortage on metal badges
