Issue comments:      The S3 was issued during the 25th anniversary of
                     Kaskanampo Lodge, the same year Kaskanampo served as the
                     Area V-E Conference host at Camp Jackson.  The S3 was
                     first sold at a lodge activity held on Redstone Arsenal
                     (Saturn rocket development center), and then at the
                     Conference.  It was a very popular flap with the other
                     lodges in the Section that included much of Tennessee.
                     The S3 and "Pig" patch (the name given to the Conference
                     patch of that year) were considered a set, and both were
                     manufactured by Midwest.  The S3 sold out during the
                     Conference, but some surfaced in 1973 and were sold and
                     traded at the 1973 National Order of the Arrow Conference
                     in Santa Barbara, California.  Kaskanampo Lodge #310 was
                     moved from V-E to SE-4A in 1973, so the S3 was the last
                     patch issued by Kaskanampo in it's old Tennessee section.
                     The S3 was also the last issue for many years that had the
                     correct mussel shell (the lodge Totem) on the patch.  The
                     S3 is greatly valued by the members of the lodge due to
                     tradition, and is easily the toughest Kaskanampo #310
                     patch to collect.

Errata:              This flap is mistakenly called the S4 in Arapaho.
