Section NE-2B 1998 Conclave

The Northeast Region OA Realignment after the 1997 Conclave season, brought about a short-lived version of Section NE-2B which contained two NY Lodges, although apparently only Shinnecock Lodge #360 was a member of the Section when the conclave was held.
The event was held at Rock Hill Scout Reservation and the theme was Brothers Form Our Circle.

First up is the regular issue Pocket patch:

There was also a jacket patch of the same design:

There is also a silver Mylar bordered pocket patch. Can anyone confirm the purpose of this patch? The SMY border was the delegate issue.
