EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of solemn reflection as Seychelles Scouts pay tribute to their fallen comrades on Armistice Day. The image, taken in the 1920s or 1930s, depicts a group of young Scouts, dressed in their uniforms, gathered around a poppy wreath. They stand at the foot of a monument erected in Mont Fleury Cemetery in memory of the dead members of the Seychelles Labour Battalion. The Labour Battalion was formed during World War I to provide labor for the British military efforts. Sadly, many of its members lost their lives in the conflict. Armistice Day, marked on November 11, commemorates the end of hostilities and honors those who made the ultimate sacrifice. The Scouts' presence at the memorial underscores the importance of remembering the past and the values of service, respect, and remembrance that Scouting embodies. The poppy wreath, a symbol of remembrance for fallen soldiers, rests at the base of the monument, a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the brave men who served in the Labour Battalion. The monument, standing tall and proud in Mont Fleury Cemetery, serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of the Seychelles Labour Battalion and the sacrifices made by its members. This powerful photograph, taken in the 1930s, serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of remembering and honoring the past, as well as the enduring spirit of service and sacrifice that continues to be a cornerstone of Scouting.
