Dear Recruits, this is what Kiwi polish, Brasso polish, Autosol polish, and Mess Tins look like. Please be sure to have these items with you for boot camp.
For Brasso and Autosol, please do not buy both, either one will do.

BB SONGS
Table Grace
In BB, we have a unique way of saying grace before we eat our meals together to thank God for the food that He had provided for us:
Be present at our table, Lord;
Be here and everywhere adored:
Thy creatures bless, and grant that we
May feast in paradise with Thee,
Amen.
Boys' Brigade Vesper
We sing the BB Vesper as a prayer at the end of a BB parade, gathering or function:
Great God who knowest all our need,
Bless Thou our watch and guard our sleep.
Forgive our sins of thought and deed,
And in Thy peace Thy servants keep
We thank Thee for the day that’s done,
We trust thee for the days to be.
Thy love we learn in Christ Thy Son,
O may we all His glory see.
Amen.
Boys' Brigade - The Anchor Song
There’s an emblem fair that is known to all,
A sign to help us through.
It stands for strength and it stands for right.
An Anchor tried and true,
The emblem of the Boys’ Brigade.
It helps us on our way,
Our Father’s knew in days gone by,
This sign we know today.
‘Sure and Steadfast’ The Brigade Boy’s motto clear.
That’s our watchword when trouble and trials are near.
‘Sure and Steadfast’ to the flag that flies above,
In all that we do we’ll try to be true,
To the Anchor that we love.
