What is a Neckerchief?
The “N” category, neckerchiefs, is arguably the most frequently misunderstood of all the patch classifications. This is a creation of Blue Book. Prior to that there was no consistent nationwide attempt to catalog and document Order of the Arrow neckerchiefs. So, what is a neckerchief? What gets the “N” moniker?
As a general practice, I have always followed the work of the Blue Book editors on this site. Blue Book has this to say about the “N” category:
“Neckerchiefs, either printed or embroidered. Those with patches sewn upon them are not listed but are described by their patches.”
