The Scoutmaster
"The Scoutmaster in the photo at
the top of this page also appears in this group outing photo taken about
five years earlier.

In this group outing photo,
he is in the centre of the front row. The name Bill Aitken rings a
bell, but a distant and faint one, I'm afraid."

Date of the Photo
Update 1
*** There
seems to be some confusion as to the date of this photo:
-
Allan
Dodds (above) believes that he took the photo around
1961
-
but Edward Dodd
(below) believes that it was taken around
1945-46.

Date of the Photo
Update 2
*** Thank you
to Gus Coutts who wrote:
"The most likely date for this photo is
around 1961 as
the berets worn by the scouts in the 2 back rows weren't introduced
until the 1950s, when they replaced the old wide-brimmed hats."

Thank you to Edward Dodd
for providing the names below.
Edward added:
"It's been years since I last saw this
photo. It was taken prior to the Troop going to Austria in
1945-46.
I will let some of those in the picture
know about your site and they might be able to fill in the question
marks.
Unfortunately, Bill and Ronnie are now dead.
The rest of the Scouts are scattered all
over Britain, but the majority in this picture get together once a year,
in Edinburgh."
