This section contains candid photographs of life at the Salvation Army's Boys Home in Medan during the 1990s. Some of the very young boys pictured here, such as Lasnointer Marbun, are now among the senior members of the current band (BBJ). Others later gained university degrees after years of taking night classes in local tertiary institutions. There are also sad stories behind the pictures, such as the one of the little boy who drowned after ignoring instructions not to swim in the river behind the boys home.

Description:
'Noin' is the little boy in the white shirt looking at the camera. He was just 4 years old when this photograph was taken in 1990. Now he is BBJ's principal tuba player and has ambitions to become a professional musician. Probably the most enthusiastic member of the band!
