EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of camaraderie and international unity at a friendship camp for French and German girl guides in the picturesque mountains and forests of Crocq, La Creuse, Central France, in 1965. The young girls, dressed in their respective scouting uniforms, represent the Rhineland-Palatinate contingent from West Germany and their French counterparts. With the backdrop of the vibrant blue sky and lush greenery, they proudly raise the flags of their nations, giving the international scouting signal, symbolizing the spirit of Entente Cordiale and the blossoming of post-war international relations. The girls, with their ties, belts, and skirts, embody the essence of teenage girls' adventure and exploration during the 1960s. This image offers a glimpse into the rich history of girl guiding and scouting, as well as the enduring bonds forged between young people from different nations.
