1948 Commissioner Commissioners Ghana Jack Rally Salute Saluting Stapleton Scout Scouting Scouts


EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the excitement and camaraderie of a Scouting rally in Konongo, Ghana, West Africa, in 1948. The scene is filled with a diverse group of Scouts and Scout Leaders, both African and European, standing proudly in their uniforms, with hands raised in salute. Among the leaders are Commissioners Jack Stapleton and George Djabanor, who are seen here addressing the crowd. The Gold Coast, as Ghana was then known, was one of the first Sub-Saharan African countries to gain independence from colonial rule. Scouting played an important role in shaping the lives of many young people during this period, providing opportunities for education, leadership development, and community engagement. This image offers a glimpse into the rich history of Scouting in Ghana during the 1940s, a time of significant social and political change. The Scouts in the photograph, both African and European, are united in their commitment to the Scouting movement, reflecting the organization's core values of respect, responsibility, and service to others. The photograph also highlights the multicultural nature of Scouting, with leaders and Scouts of different races working together towards a common goal. The image is a powerful reminder of the transformative power of Scouting and its ability to bring people together, regardless of their background or ethnicity.
