EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph taken circa 1959, Mr. D.F. Morgan, the Commonwealth Commissioner, is seen engaging in a warm and friendly interaction with a Yemeni Scout in Aden. The Commissioner, dressed in a suit and tie, sits cross-legged on the floor, attentively listening to the young scout as they discuss matters of great importance. Surrounding them, a group of Yemeni Scouts, dressed in their distinctive uniforms, eagerly watch the conversation unfold. The children, ranging from young boys to teenagers, display a palpable sense of curiosity and excitement as they observe their leader. The scene takes place in the context of the Scout Association, an international youth organization that aims to promote personal development and social responsibility through various activities and adventures. The association, which was established in the United Kingdom in 1907, had a significant presence in Aden, a British protectorate located on the southwestern coast of the Arabian Peninsula. The photograph captures a moment of connection between two distinct cultures, highlighting the transformative power of Scouting in bringing people together. It serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring values of friendship, understanding, and unity that transcend political and geographical boundaries. The image offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a window into a time when the world was more interconnected than ever before, and where the spirit of Scouting played a crucial role in fostering cross-cultural dialogue and mutual respect.
