The '''6th World Scout Jamboree''' was held in 1947 and was hosted by [[France]] at [[Moisson]]. | |||
Following the devastation of [[World War II]], this event was aptly named the '''Jamboree of Peace'''. The Jamboree showed that even through the years of the war the Scout Movement was still strong and growing. | |||
This | This was the first jamboree to have been held after [[Robert Baden-Powell, 1st Baron Baden-Powell|Baden-Powell's]] death in 1941. | ||
The [[President of the French Republic]], [[Vincent Auriol]], paid an official visit on August 14, 1947, and saw a special arena program, including massed [[Highland dancing]] by the [[Scottish people|Scots]]. He toured around the camp, partially on foot and partially on the unique little railway, brought from the [[Maginot Line]], that circled around among the subcamps. His visit was also marked by clouds of dust-Moisson was the "Dustboree"-and by hordes of press photographers who seemed to make a point to get in his way, at which point [[General]] [[Joseph Lafont]] made the [[sotto voce]] plea "[[God Save the King!]]" | |||
