1961 Association Godfrey Peace Symbol Scout Scouting Scouts
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of the Scout Association's "Symbol of Peace" ceremony during a camping event in 1961. The image, taken by an unidentified photographer, shows a group of young Scouts gathered around a campfire, their faces illuminated by the warm glow of the flames. At the center of the circle, a Scout leader holds aloft the Symbol of Peace, a wooden staff topped with an olive branch and a dove, symbolizing peace and unity among Scouts from different countries. The ceremony, which was an integral part of the World Jamboree, brought together Scouts from around the world to promote international understanding and goodwill. The Symbol of Peace was passed from one Scout to another, signifying the commitment to peace and friendship among Scouts, regardless of their nationality or background. This powerful photograph not only captures the spirit of Scouting during this era but also serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of peace and unity in today's world.
