Her Godfather was the noted English journalist and writer, Bertram Fletcher Robinson. "Winn" became a prominent physician in Elstree where she died on 21 January 1998 aged 94 years (see () & ()). In 1919, Everett organized the first Wood Badge leadership training in Gilwell Park. In 1930, Everett was knighted for his service to scouting.〔 In 1948, Everett wrote ''The First Ten Years'' (88 pages), published by the ''East Anglian Daily Times'', about the first ten years of Scouting. Baden-Powell conferred the six-bead Wood Badge onto Everett, which he passed on in 1948 to Gilwell Park's Camp Chief John Thurman, to be worn as badge of office by the person responsible for leader training. ==See also== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Percy Everett」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
