| Thousands of Scouts from across the country and around the globe gathered to march down Constitution Avenue for the first time since 1937. The occasion was the 100 Anniversary of Scouting in the U.S. and launched the Centennial Jamboree at Fort A. P. Hill, VA. The weather was brutal as the temperature reached 102 and late in the day a severe storm brought 68 mph gusts of wind. | |
