International Boy Scouts, Troop 1 International Boy Scouts, Troop 1 was founded in 1911 as Japan's first Scout troop and, despite its early multinational character, was originally registered with the London headquarters of the Boy Scouts as "British Scouts in Foreign Countries", which was the only option at the time due to the Boy Scouts' "nationality requirement" and no international Boy Scout office. The troop's character, and Scoutmaster, changed and it was recognized as a mixed-nationality, or "international" troop in 1918. After formation of the World Scout Bureau, Troop 1 became the first "mixed nationality" group to be registered directly be the Bureau. The troop has been continuously active since its foundation. The troop's "mixed nationality" charter dated October 30, 1925 was issued after the newly formed International Bureau received approval to directly register such "international" groups at the 3rd World Scout Conference. The charter was signed by Lord Baden-Powell.
