EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Sir Charles Hector FitzRoy McLean in his esteemed role as Chief Scout of the United Kingdom, a position he held from 1971 to 1975. Sir Charles, who was born on March 11, 1912, was a prominent figure in British society, holding numerous titles including Baronet, Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath, Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire, and Lieutenant of the City of London. In this image, Sir Charles is seen wearing his full uniform, which includes the red and gold stripes of the Chief Scout's crown on his cap, signifying his leadership position within the Scout Association. The photograph was taken in 1973, during Sir Charles' tenure as Chief Scout, and was likely taken at a major Scouting event. Sir Charles was a dedicated and passionate supporter of Scouting, having joined the organization as a boy scout himself in 1921. He went on to serve in various leadership roles within the Scout Association, including Assistant District Commissioner, District Commissioner, and Deputy Chief Commissioner, before being appointed as Chief Scout. Under Sir Charles' leadership, the Scout Association saw significant growth and expansion, with a focus on increasing participation and engagement among young people. He was also a strong advocate for the importance of outdoor activities and adventure in the development of young people, and worked to ensure that Scouting remained a relevant and exciting experience for its members. Sir Charles passed away on February 2, 1996, but his legacy within the Scout Association continues to be felt. This photograph serves as a reminder of his dedication and commitment to the organization, and the impact he had on the lives of countless young people during his time as Chief Scout.
