EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a poignant moment in the lives of displaced Lithuanian Scouts and Guides and their leaders, sitting on a monument in Germany during the 1940s. The Second World War had forced these young people from their homes in Lithuania, leaving them as refugees in a foreign land. Despite the hardships they faced, the Scout and Guide Association continued to provide a sense of normalcy and community for these displaced youths. The image is filled with a mix of young girls and boys, teenagers with determined expressions, their faces etched with the weight of their experiences. The girls wear their Guiding uniforms, their sashes adorned with badges, while the boys don their Scout uniforms, their neckerchiefs knotted around their necks. Their leaders, seated among them, offer a sense of stability and guidance, their faces reflecting the resilience and strength required to lead these young people through such uncertain times. The monument behind them, a symbol of history and tradition, serves as a reminder of the world they had left behind. Yet, the Scouts and Guides remain focused on the present, their eyes filled with a sense of purpose and determination. The photograph is a testament to the power of community and the enduring spirit of youth, even in the darkest of times.
