Scouting's patrol system was established at Baden-Powel's early "experiment" at Brownsea Island in 1907. . In the army, B-P had found the best way to train military scouts was in small groups. So the 22 Brownsea campers were divided into four patrols, with the oldest boy as patrol leader.
For patrol identification, the boys were given long, wool streamers in different colors to pin on their left shoulder - green for Bulls, blue for Wolves, yellow for Curlews, and red for Ravens. Each boy also had a small fleur-de-lis badge to pin on his cap.
In 1907 Lord Robert Baden-Powell started the Scouting movement by taking a group of boys on a camp, this camp was held on Brownsea Island, and there were 4 patrols: Curlews, Ravens, Bulls and wolves
Scouting first started in 1907 in the United Kingdom. Robert Baden-Powell, a lieutenant for the British army is credited for forming the first boy scouting group.
Baden Powell did first "experiment in scouting" on Browsea Island in 1907. There were other scouting organizations prior to that.
