Sticker with words "East Carolina Council" and "Tar Heel" and showing a heel pulling away from a patch of tar set against a Confederate flag.Until the mid-1990s the Confederate flag appeared on shoulder patches and other paraphernalia issued by the East Carolina Council of the Boy Scouts of America, headquartered in Kinston.
