EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of resilience and camaraderie among Sea Scouts during the tumultuous 1940s. In the image, a group of Sea Scouts, clad in their distinctive uniforms, are seen serving tea and refreshments from a mobile canteen during an air raid drill or precautionary measure. The boys, dressed in short-sleeved shirts and trousers, display an air of determination and focus as they attend to their duties, oblivious to the looming threat of aerial warfare overhead. The mobile canteen, a vital component of the Air Raid Precautions (ARP) organization, provided essential services to the community during air raids, offering comfort and sustenance to those seeking shelter from the bombs. The Sea Scouts' role in this endeavor underscores their commitment to their community and their readiness to serve during times of crisis. This poignant image, taken by an unknown photographer and published in E.E. Reynolds' 'Boy Scouts' in 1944, is a testament to the unwavering spirit and selflessness of the young men who donned the Sea Scout uniform during the Second World War.
