GUIDES 1946-1963 - Patricia |
|
In 1946 a major change in Guide Uniform was introduced, with a brighter blue shirt worn tucked into a navy blue skirt. The headwear became a navy blue felt beret.
The brown tie and lanyard on this uniform show she was also a Brownie Pack Leader.
What else could guides do?
Guides would all have to pass their Tenderfoot badge before becoming enrolled and then they could begin on their Second Class badge which would take up to one or two years to complete.
Following this, they could then progress to their First Class badge, which was very difficult to achieve and then, and only then, could they begin on their Queen's Guide award. This had to be completed by their 16th birthday.
