Someone on a facebook Scout badge swap group I'm a member of has posted a bunch of badges
from a mystery country. The others don't think it's Thai but no one knows where else it
could be from. I tried looking through the scripts on Omniglot but I'm no closer. Any
ideas?
Link is for similar badge:

It's Thai and I believe it reads:
ลูกเสือ
You can look it up here:

which gives you:
[literally, "Tiger Cub"] Boy Scout

Cheers! Turns out the confusion was my own. The post by the Thai owner read 'is't Thai'
which I read as isn't. Think he actually mean 'it's'...
