EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of international camaraderie and adventure at the Lourdes Scout Camp in France during the summer of 1937. The image shows a scenic field dotted with English and French tents, with trees providing a picturesque backdrop. A group of young scouts, dressed in their respective uniforms, can be seen engaged in various camping activities. The English scouts, wearing their navy blue shirts and maroon scarves, are busy setting up their tent, while their French counterparts, wearing their blue shirts and red scarves, are seen playing a game or practicing drills nearby. The scene exudes a sense of excitement and discovery, as the boys explore the great outdoors and forge friendships across borders. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of scouting in the 1930s, a time when the movement was at its peak and fostering a spirit of unity and adventure among young people.
