Sea Scouts were first formed in the United Kingdom in 1909 as a branch of The Scout Association and have been a feature of the Scouting movement ever since. The branch has a particular emphasis on boating and water-based activities, such as sailing, canoeing, motorboating and navigation. Sea Scouts are aged 10 to 14, and Explorer Sea Scouts 14 to 18. Sea Scout Groups often have younger members in Beaver Scout and Cub Scout sections. Although they are not counted in Sea Scout numbers, they are allowed to wear the Royal Navy Recognition Badge if their Group has that recognition. ==Royal Navy Recognition== (詳細はRoyal Navy. The scheme began in 1919 following the efforts of Scouts during World War I in support of the armed forces, through service as coast watchers, first aiders, fire fighters and messengers.〔 Groups that apply for Recognition are inspected by a Royal Navy officer. Providing there is a vacant position, Groups that pass the inspection and meet the exacting standards of the Royal Navy are awarded Recognition on behalf of the Admiralty Board. Recognised Groups are entitled to fly a Red Ensign and blue pennant, both defaced with a Scout Arrowhead and Admiralty Crown. Members may also wear the Royal Navy Recognition badge on uniform. Sea Scouts may go to sea with the Royal Navy, visit military establishments and use facilities at , such as the Royal Navy Sailing Centre and the Youth Training Ship, . Three events occur annually for Royal Navy Recognised Sea Scouts, a swimming gala at , a football competition at HMS ''Excellent'', and a summer "camp" aboard HMS ''Bristol''. Another camp is held for Sea Explorers in October of each year. 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「Sea Scouts (The Scout Association)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
