Wednesday: Writing Task


Did you know that in World War 1 Boy Scouts protected the railroads line
and delivered messages and Girls Guides grew vegetables and milk.
But British Secret Service. The Boy Scouts, who were first choice for
this work apparently found it hard to keep sensitive secrets, so Britain’s
agents turned to the Girl Guides, instead Both on the battlefield and back
at home some incredible creatures helped to transport soldiers and
goods  and save lives. Some of these animals were horses, dogs,
pigeons  and even goldfish played their part. The  Girl Guides would make basic medical equipment for wounded soldiers. Children were even
paid to collect conkers which could be turned into explosives!
They also wrote letters to soldiers and helped to knit socks and scarves
for the troops in the winter months.
