Informatii ignorate doar din ... ignoranta?

Cateva informatii cutremuratoare pentru domnisoare/domnisori ultra-pacifisti:

1. "Scouting for Boys" este adaptarea unor lucrari scrise pentru cercetasii din armata 

"Scouting for Boys (1908) is Baden-Powell's rewrite of his earlier MILITARY books Reconnaissance and Scouting (1884) and Aids to Scouting for NCOs and Men (1899)" 

(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scouting_for_Boys)

2. Floarea de crin este inspirata din simbolul cercetasilor militari din armata imperiala britanica

"The symbol (Fleur-de-lis) was chosen by Sir Robert Baden-Powell as it had been the arm-badge of those SOLDIERS qualified as "Scouts" (reconnaissance specialists) when he served in the British Army"

(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fleur-de-lis)
dupa, au venit si interpretarile (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fleur-de-lis_in_Scouting)

3. Corpul de cadeti de la Mafeking s-a constituit in principala sursa de inspiratie pentru cercetasie

"At Mafeking, Baden-Powell recruited and trained boys aged 12–15 as postmen, messengers, and later to carry the wounded, to free men for fighting"
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scouting_for_Boys)
(acelasi misiuni (si altele in plus) le-au indeplinit si cercetasii romani in primul razboi mondial

Odata socul depasit, dupa 2-3 exercitii de respiratie se poate citi si un articol aparut in revista "Document" a Serviciului Istoric al Armatei:
 "100 de ani de cercetasie in Romania - Contributia ofiterilor romani la organizarea miscarii"
