This is a photograph of the 2nd Wheatley Hill Scout Troop in 1938 as they were the first scout troop to win the Geoffrey Gordon Challenge Cup. Joe Armstrong sent it via his daughter Marjorie. If anyone would like to contact Joe you can either leave a message in the guest book or I can forward your e-mail to him and he will contact you as soon as he can.
