1941 Association Branches Celebrate Created Creation Formation Formed Friends Groups Kids Newly Official Officially Respect Shakes Shaking Smile Smiles Tee Nager Teenage Teenagers Unit Units Scout Scouting Scouts
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, taken in 1941, three Scouts enthusiastically shake hands to celebrate the official formation of the Air Scout branch of the Scout Association. The young Air Scout, dressed in his distinctive uniform, is surrounded by his Sea Scout and Scout friends, all wearing the traditional Scout uniform. Their faces are filled with smiles and a sense of camaraderie as they mark the creation of a new unit within the Scouting movement. The Scout Association, which was founded in 1907, had previously only had Sea Scouts and Scouts as branches. However, with the advent of air travel and the increasing interest in aviation among young people, the decision was made to create an Air Scout branch. This new addition to the Scouting family would provide young people with the opportunity to learn about aviation and develop skills related to the field. The three teenagers in the photograph embody the spirit of respect, friendship, and national pride that is at the heart of Scouting. Their handshake symbolizes the unity and collaboration between the different branches of the Scout Association, as they work together to provide opportunities for children and teenagers to grow and learn. The photograph captures a moment of joy and celebration, as the Scouts look towards an exciting future filled with new adventures and experiences in the world of aviation. This image serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of the Scout Association and its commitment to providing opportunities for young people to explore their interests and develop essential life skills.
