Figure 3.-- This is obviously some kind of Scout group. We thought at first it was a modern recreation of early Scouting. But we are more inclined to view it as a modern group with a traditional uniform. The boys wear broad-brimmed traditional Scout hats, grey shirts, neckerchiefs, brown cord shorts, and gey kneesocks with dark green bands.

This is obviously some kind of Scout group. We thought at first it was a modern recreation of early Scouting. But we are more inclined to view it as a modern group with a traditional uniform. The boys wear broad-brimmed traditional Scout hats, grey shirts, neckerchiefs, brown cord shorts, and gey kneesocks with dark green bands. The shorts and kneesoks show that these Scouts are in the same association as the Cubs in image 2. I believe that the boys are Belgian, but are unsure as to just what association they belong. One reader reports, "It was the old uniform of the Flemish VVKS Scouts. Now they have an uniform with green denim long shorts, brown shirts and again a green woolen sweater. Here, I think seeing it myself recently on their site, is a group still hanging on to the old uniform." Another reader tells us that this group is the VVKSM, a traditional off-shoot of the VVKS.
