DON ON YOUR BOYS BRIGADE UNIFORM CORRECTLY.
The holy grail which is as well the core Creed and the Scheme of the Brigade is the advancement of christ kingdom among Boys and the promotion of habits, reverence, discipline self-respect and all that tends towards a true Christians manliness. Having said that, one should be cognizant that proper wearing of the draw on of B.B Uniform is in itself advancing Christ kingdom.
Any member (Boy, Officer, Chaplain & Patron) of the Brigade who doesn't know the licit and warranted Uniform to wear should well entreat or seek to have knowledge about it. Doing so accordingly aids one to shine so bright that the light can't be hidden. (Daniel 13:3, Mathew 5:16)
Proper suiting up of your uniform (for officers) embodies not without many more, the underlisted out-and-out rules:
1. NEATNESS: Your uniform most be clean, the Navy Blue Trouser and a white short sleeve top
2. ACCESSORIES
i. Make sure your collar Badges are well fixed .
ii. Have you properly fixed your Lanyard and at it's rightful position? Don't forget that Lanyard should have a whistle attached to it you know what I mean right?
iii. The Belt you will use should be the Belt for the uniform you're using.
3 HEADGEAR & HAIR DRESS/STYLE: Whenever you wear your uniform make sure your Cap is on your head or well placed on you to avoid displacement.
i. Male Officers: It doesn't look good and proves any atom of discipline when you put on that Cap with so much hair on your head or with any form of haircuts not approved by the BB.
ii. Lady Officers: avoid putting on the uniform with colored attachment of any kind, making your hair in such a way you can't park it well in other for the hair not to touch the neck of your shirt: it is absolutely uniform abuse. Show me any uniform woman that do the way you do and I will tell you how you abuse the uniform of our dear Organization.
Note
A lady officer that wears dangling earrings, put on Red lip-stick, or any sort of heavy/showty Make-Up when putting on uniform is NOT PROPER.
The swag you talk about is in Wearing that uniform properly not making it look like your Wearing your Christmas clothes with a heavy make up. Not putting Up make up, earrings just for a day doesn't mean you don't know how to make up, It only means you are a disciplined Lady (Woman). So also to the Men, cutting or trimming low that hair and the beared doesn't mean you are not handsome or you are looking like a primary school Boy, but means you are a responsible and a disciplined man.
Follow me and wear your uniform properly
Before you put on your shoes (The Black covered shoes for uniform, not Brown, Red, or any colour),make sure you have worn your black Stokens and that will definitely become your habit, if you can remember as in the object of the Boys Brigade, promotion of habits. Trust me it will never be an issue for you.
Lady Officers wearing short & skimpy skirts with slights everywhere is very improper. you are expected to dress moderately , it's not an old fashion and doesn't imply one doesn't know how you look good, but the massage you pass across to the world via ur outfit is important.
BENEFITS OF WEARING UNIFORM PROPERLY
1. You will be addressed the way you dress and it speaks of the address you're coming from.
2. You will make others dress well while wearing their uniforms.
3. People will be led to Christ.
4. You will be the reason why someone is saved by joining the Boys' Brigade.
E.T.C.
Read conscientiously, top to down and vis-à-vis you will agree with me that it is inline with the object of the Boys Brigade. Let the mission of the founder not die in your hands by leading others astray through wrong wearing of the uniform.
