More great information. Thank you again Didier! I mentioned posting some pictures my Grandfather had of a French boy that he befriended while passing through France during WW2. Here they are. I had thought this young man might be wearing a scout uniform, but now looking at the pictures, it appears he might be dressed for church in the one picture. Let me know what you think or if you know anything about the pictures. Feel free to help with the translations of the French on the back of the photos. Thanks!

Oh Wow! That is cool. I thought that I saw some badges/pins hanging from his shirt. Also, if you have that scouting book that you shared a the scan from earlier, would you mind scanning in the cover, or the inside cover page so I can have information on the source? Also, if you know French, can you help me with translating the backs of the pictures? I ran what I thought they said through a translator, but I am not sure how accurate of a translation it is.

Thank you so much for your help with bringing life to some of the relics that my Grandparents left me from the war. God bless you!
