Indeed the heart shaped pin boyscout pin I have is the mother's life pin. I inherited this pin when my grandmother passed away, along with her sorority pins and other scouting pins. She was a den mother for many years for my father's troop. I wore the pin 1. to honor my grandmother and 2. because APO has such close ties with scouting. I apologize if wearing it was inappropriate (and I certainly won't do it again).

I know that some fraternities allow daughters to wear their insignia. Are their any exceptions like this in the scouting world? In the APO world?
