EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures R Okell, Scoutmaster of the Berea Scout Troop in Durban, South Africa, leading his young charges in an outdoor adventure. The year is uncertain, but the image exudes the spirit of the early 20th century Scouting movement, which had gained immense popularity in the British colonies. Okell, a distinguished man with a neatly trimmed mustache and wearing his Scoutmaster uniform complete with hat, stands before his troop of eager boys, all dressed in their Scout uniforms. The boys, with their wide grins and focused expressions, seem to be fully engaged in the activity at hand. The setting, with its lush greenery and open sky, highlights the Scouting ethos of connecting with nature and developing self-reliance. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when Scouting played a significant role in shaping the lives of young boys in colonial South Africa.
