Letter to the editor: I am trying to find out more information on a Scout group my father belonged to at Swanley Village before the First World War.

I believe it was formed by a Capt Lipscome as a private scout group.

Capt Lipscome was a friend of Lord Robert Baden-Powell.

The uniform was blue and the hat was a tricot.

It had three dents in it, not four like the normal scout hat.

I would be grateful for any information.
