For sale is a Ww2 1940s To 1950s British Home Front WAGGGS Girls Guides Salute Enamel Badge.

THE SALUTE

To make the sign, raise three fingers of the right hand, with the thumb holding the little finger down. The three fingers represent the three parts of the Girl Guide and Girl Scout promise and echo the core values of integrity, citizenship and spirituality. In some countries the sign is held at shoulder height, in others it is held to the forehead as a salute.

The three-finger salute is used by members of Scout and Guide organizations around the world when greeting other Scouts and in respect of a national flag at ceremonies. In most situations, the salute is made with the right hand, palm face out, the thumb holding down the little finger, and with the fingertips on the brow of the head. There are some variations of the salute between national Scouting organizations and also within some programme sections.
