EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken on 14 March 1933, depicts a lively Cub Pack, known as Husseinea, assembled outside a building in Colombo, Western Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). The tropical climate of Sri Lanka is evident in the boys' light clothing and the lush greenery in the background. The young Cub Scouts, dressed in their distinctive uniforms, are seen posing proudly with their leaders. The Cub Scouts, a section of the Scout Movement for younger boys, wore hats adorned with a fez and a small tiger emblem. The leaders, dressed in similar attire but with added accouterments, stand confidently among their young charges. The boys' enthusiasm is palpable, reflecting the spirit of adventure and camaraderie that defined the Scouting movement in the 1930s. The image offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of Scouting in Asia during this era, providing a window into the past and reminding us of the enduring appeal of the Scout Movement.
