History

THE ORIGINAL X1 ISSUE (FELT OVER FELT) FIRST APPEARED GLUED TO A CERTIFICATE PRESENTED BY ACHTU LODGE TO CARROLL EDSON IN 1933. EDSON WAS THE SCOUT EXECUTIVE OF HUDSON COUNCIL AND THE FOUNDER OF THE LODGE.

THE PATCH DESIGN IS SIMILAR TO THE US ARMY'S 98TH INFANTRY PATCH, IN WHICH EDSON WAS A COLONEL. THE DESIGN WAS SUBSEQUENTLY USED BY ACHTU LODGE ON SEVERAL NECKERCHIEF ISSUES. SUBSEQUENT PATCH ISSUES WERE EMBROIDERED AND NOT MANUFACTURED BY THE LODGE; THEY WERE MILITARY ISSUE.
