Other Youth Movements
In Nazi Germany, the Hitler Jugend, Deutsches Jungvolk and Bund Deutscher Mädel all wore a black neckerchief as part of their uniform, usually folded under the shirt collar. It has been suggested that it was copied from Scouting, which was banned in Germany in 1933.
Members of the Pioneer movement in many Communist states wore a red neckerchief which was sometimes worn without the rest of the uniform. This continues at present in China.
