Details and History
The Wikimedia Commons website offers a multitude of historical images with no restrictions on use. This circa 1899 R. Y. Young image, published by the American Stereoscopic Company, is titled Boys' brigade, Philadelphia. Peace Jubilee. With the motto "Sure and Stedfast" (sic), the Boys Brigade is an organization striving to combine drill and other fun activities with Christian values. As noted by Robert Peterson in the Scouting Magazine article Marching to a Different Drummer the organization's US affiliates largely defected to the nascent Boy Scouts of America at its inception. Steadfast was apparently no match for "Be Prepared", the scout motto.
