World War Two principally consists of material documenting Scott's war service in the Royal Navy, from his initial appointment to HMS Broke to his commands in the Steam Gunboat Flotilla of the Coastal Forces, and papers relating to his writings on the war, mostly to The Battle of the Narrow Seas (1945). Included in the war service papers is material relating to Scott's work on camouflage design, to his interviews with a captured German naval officer, and photographs and sketches.
