Our Troop Insignia
Our Troop Insignia depicts the head of an American Bald Eagle, adopted after the US Airborne 101st Division - an army division that displayed indisputable courage and tenacity during the 2nd world war, with action seen in all major theatres of war operations to eventually winning the war.The Bald Eagle, a prized species that was once endangered, is encircled by a 3-D ring. This ring symbolizes the world-wide brotherhood and sisterhood of the Scout Movement. It also represents the completion of a Scout's being with his/her community, and the esprit de corps he has with his fellow Scouts. A gleam of light is emitted from the ring to show the healthy and lofty ways and ideas of the Scout Group.The Singapore Scout Association's emblem is incorporated in our Troop Insignia to show the fact that the Scout Group is a part of the World Scout Movement.The Group's name - Screaming Eagles Scout Group - is aligned along the ring (lower half) in the same "glowing" colours to show the bond between the Scout Group and its environment.The entire design is set on a black background, emphasizing the modern 3-D effect of the Insignia. This shows the Scout Group's maturing with modern times. Ever moving forward and learning with modern technologies and techniques.
