Four years after Baden-Powell's famous 1907 Brownsea Island Camp and the start of the Scout movement we find Herbert in the 1st North London troop. From a 1912 'Pharos' new letter from the Dover County School for Boys we see that this troop was know as 'Lord Kitchener's Own'. I have yet to discover the connection.
