Best Answer

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.
