Always prepared

Always prepared (Russian: Всегда Готов [Vsegda Gotov]; literally "Always ready") is the motto of the Pioneer movement, adopted by most of the Pioneer organizations in socialist countries.

The motto is a common feature on the organizations' badges.

After the end of the Russian Civil War, the Scout organization of the former Tsarist Russia was replaced with the Young Pioneers.

[2] The "always ready" of the young pioneers is mostly related to socialism, peace and country building.

[citation needed] The ritual involving the motto of the Young Pioneers of the Soviet Union consisted of two parts, the summons and the answer or response (1986 revision is presented below).
