Roll of Honour: Not Cambridge

Cambridge District Scout Archive

In researching Cambridge Scouts who died in conflicts occasionally a reference is found to a Scout who was outside Cambridge District; most likely Cambridgeshire Scout County.

Where these are not included on Gilwell Rolls of Honour they have been noted and forwarded to the Scouts Heritage Team.

They are on a separate list and identified alphabetically.

Note: A number of entries in Gilwell Roll of Honour mention Cambridge as the place of burial. These are probably related to having died in the Cambridge based Eastern Hospital.
