Issue Details

History: This issue was unknown to myself, Larry Lane, until after arriving at the Jamboree. At the time of the pre-order, as I was on NJ staff, I was informed that there was a special purple mylar shoulder strip that would be issued two per scout/scouter for uniform wear. A total of 66 were ordered of these shoulder strips. These did not arrive in time for staff to get them prior to arriving at Jamboree. It is unclear if any scouts/scouters actually utilized these specially designated uniform wear JSPs. At some point it was determined that in addition to uniform shoulder strips there should also be uniform OA sets. Two were issued to each dues paid OA member attending the event. However, since then I have learned that one OA member was accidently skipped. As only 24 were ordered for 12 OA members, this 13th member, did not get two of these sets. This set was reported by an Assistant Scoutmaster of the Contingent as being approved by the 296 LEC prior to ordering. LEC members have confirmed that they do recall the purple mylar set as being brought for approval to the LEC. Even though this set was approved by the LEC in accordance with Patchvault guidance for lodge listings this is being listed as a Q. Patchvault advises all listings of 25 or less total quantity to be listed as a Q. In the past we have used Q to designate council issued OA memorabilia that was not approved by the LEC or Key 3. That does not seem to be the situation for this patch.
