The movement then spread to other countries including the Philippines, where the first Filipino troop was established in 1914.

31. The Scout Sign identifies you as a Scout everywhere in the world. Give it each time you recite the Scout Oath and Law. The Scout sign is sometimes use to signal attention. When a Scout leader raises a hand in the Scout sign, all others should also make the sign and come to silent attention. The three fingers pointing up symbolize the three points of the Oath. They also signify that a Scout climbs upward to bigger and better things. The two other fingers stand for the bond of brotherhood and friendship that ties all Scouts together.
