    Sir Robert Baden-Powell & Scout Leaders

    I don't have a lot of details about this photo or the year it was taken.
    I believe it was taken in France.


    Caption/Description:
    Camp scout, groupe des autorités scouts : M. Fournier Sarlovèze et le major général Sir Robert Baden-Powell, les abbés Cornette et Sevin, un scout en kilt devant une tente aux couleurs du drapeau britannique.

    On-line Translator:
    Camp scout, group of authorities scouts: Mr. Fournier Sarlovèze and the general officer Sir Robert baden-powell, the abbots Wimple and Sevin, a scout in kilt in front of a stretched one to the colors of the British flag.

    Location:
    France ; Picardie ; Aisne ; La Croix Saint-Ouen

    Far too many photos to post here, but for those who wish to "wax nostalgic" and peruse photos of Northern California pipe bands from days of yore, this is your web site:

    Of particular interest are the photos of the 6th US Army Pipe Band at the Presidio and the 360th Regiment, 91st Division (USAR) Pipe Band.
