Troop 1639
| Kevin Morris, one of the
Scouts that went to the 1997 Jamboree with Troop 1639, provided the following
information about their troop's experience at the Jamboree and trip.
We have have printed part of his story on this page and continued it on
another page which you can access at the end of this part of his memories.
"We had a 'staff patrol' and four other patrols: Beaver, Frog, Rattlesnake, and Pedro. I was in the Beaver Patrol with David Barlow, Tim Bock, Justin Clark, Kody Guynn, Tim Harry, Jordan Horton, and Jossie Johnson, if my memory serves. "Before we went to the Jamboree, we toured Washington, DC and rode the bus to Fort AP Hill. I took pictures of our trip, however, they are mostly of the sites and not of the people. But they do remind me of what I saw (the ones that turned out that is). We stayed in a hotel in Virginia and rode the Metro train in and out everyday. Usually we took the Metro to the National Mall area. I remember on the first day we went to the Smithsonian, what order, I don't recall. I can remember us touring the memorials in the evening ... we went to Iwo Jima, Korean, Vietnam, and Lincoln one in one night and Jefferson and Roosevelt on a separate evening (at least I think it was two evenings, might have been one). We got to go up the Washington monument one day (took the elevator both directions ... I don't think they let anyone walk up and down), which on successive trips I haven't gotten to do due to the renovations on it. I can distinctly remember being on top and looking out of the windows onto the capitol and the white house. We went to the Holocaust museum, Mount Vernon, the National Cathedral, and Arlington National Cemetery. I can remember being at the tomb of the unknown soldier and at Kennedy's grave. "I'm going to move onto the picture below which was taken in front of our gateway. The derrick squirted water and the pumpjack moved up and down. The patrols are listed on the gateway. You can see the Troop 1638 gateway in the background. I can't ID everyone, but I'll give you who I know. Back left is Fred Morris III, Jordan Horton is next to him, then Kody Guynn, then Justin Clark, then Mr. McCain. The next two I don't know, then is James (who goes by Graham) Keefe. I don't know anymore on that row except the last three who are Joe Pickering, David Harrington, and David Pierce, who was the trip coordinator for both troops. Okay, next to last row from left ... Myself, then skip to the last three and you have Robert "Robbie" Martin, Chris Harrington, and Peter Telck. Second row ... on the left is Luke Jackson and on the right is David Barlow, I think. Bottom row from left, Tim Harry, skip one, Mike Gilluly, skip to the end, Clay Herriage. For the continued story on their participation at the 1997 Jamboree go HERE. We want to thank Kevin Morris for sharing these memories with us! He also provided us with the shoulder patch and the troop photo below, plus some other items of the Jamboree that he saved, which you can view by going to HERE. |
