Scout, also known as Boy Scouts, originated in England. In 1899, the second Boer War broke out in South Africa. In a battle called "Battle of Meifugen City", the British army organized a youth force called "Meifugen Military Academy Student Corps" to help the British army fight-of course, this group of baby soldiers did not engage in the firefight, but were responsible for logistics: assisting in logistics, medical care, communications and other work. Nevertheless, this youth league has made great contributions to the victory of the British army. The performance of this youth corps composed of teenagers on the battlefield made the world shine at that time and look at it with new eyes.
At that time, British Lieutenant General Robert Borden was inspired by these children and began to organize boy scouts. In A.D. 1907, Robert Borden, as the founder of the global scout movement, held the first scout camp in Bronx, England. In this camping activity, Robert Borden put scarves on the boy scouts. Note: The scarf is khaki, not red.
The "Boy Scout Movement" initiated by Robert Borden also influenced the waning Tsarist Russia. As a result, Tsarist Russia followed suit and established a boy scout organization-"Russian Boy Scouts"-Russia has always been a European country and is highly influenced by European culture.
19 17, the "October Revolution" broke out in Russia. In this revolution, some "Russian scouts" tend to be on the side of the Bolsheviks (that is, proletarian revolutionaries). After the founding of the Soviet Union and Russia, the All-Russian Youth Producers' Meeting put forward a suggestion that the Boy Scouts' organization representing decadent western ideology in the tsarist era should be abolished, and a Young Pioneers' organization with the nature of * * * should be established, and the ideology should be spread to children in Soviet Union and Russia as a medium.
Thus, in May of A.D. 1922, the "Vladimir Lenin All-Union Pioneer Organization" was established, and its members were Soviet teenagers aged from 10 to 15. This organization is also known as "Young Pioneers of the Soviet Union" and "Boy Scouts"-its slogan is "Always Ready".
It is worth noting that after the establishment of the "Soviet Young Pioneers", the scarves around the necks of the original boy scouts suddenly turned red-this is the classic color of the Soviet proletarian revolution and the color of the red flag, dyed with the blood of martyrs.
At this point, the "red scarf" was officially born as a product of the Soviet Union. That is to say, the khaki scout scarf appeared in Britain in 1907, and in the Soviet Union in 1922, influenced by the ideology of * * *, the color changed from khaki to red.
