EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, members of the Berea Scout Troop in Durban, South Africa, proudly gather around their new flag, a symbol of their commitment and dedication to the Scouting movement. Established in the early 1900s, Scouting in South Africa can be traced back to the colonial era, with the first Scout troop being formed in 1907. The scene captures the essence of Scouting, with the boys and men dressed in their distinct uniforms, embodying a sense of unity and camaraderie. The leader, standing at the front, raises his hand in a gesture of pride and approval, as the other Scouts salute the Union Jack flag that hangs above their newly acquired troop flag. The Union Jack, a symbol of British colonial rule in South Africa, is also a reminder of the global reach and impact of the Scouting movement, which originated in the United Kingdom. The photograph was likely taken in the 1950s or 1960s, during a time when South Africa was grappling with the complexities of its colonial past and the emergence of nationalist movements. The Scouting movement, with its emphasis on character development, citizenship, and outdoor skills, provided a space for boys and men to explore their identity and patriotism within the larger socio-political context of the time. The Berea Scout Troop hut, visible in the background, serves as a reminder of the community that these Scouts belong to, and the enduring legacy of Scouting in South Africa. The photograph captures a moment of pride and accomplishment, as the Scouts proudly display their new flag, a testament to their commitment to the Scouting movement and their community.
