"L" SECTION OF VOLUNTEER DEFENCE CORPS
of the
The Arst annual dinner "L" Section, Corps 1st. Batlery, of the Hongkong Volunteer. Defenco Corps, was held at Headquarters Jost night when nearly 100 guests were present.
Capt. T. Addis Marin, Battery Commander, was in the chair and among those present were Col, A. Burroughs CRA., Lieut.-Col, R.C.B. Anderson, Commandant; Licut. Col. H.D.L. Dowbiggin, Major J. S. Dren- nan Mc., RA;, Capt. G. 8. Frizelle, Lieut. J. T. Marsh, Lieut. Symons. Lieut. C. Chaplin, and Lleut. D. Marshall,
Letters regretting inability to at- tend were received from Col. H. C. Harrison and Major R. C. GIIL. RA.
In-proposing the toast of the guests, Capt. Martin said:
The idea of forming "L" Section of Corps ist Battery had been mooted some years ago but it was not till December 1. last year in the first recruits were sworn in and It be- came a part of the Corps. It is in their name that I offer to our, guests to-night a very hearty welcome.
At "A" Section dinner I assured. our Commandant of their loyal sup- port: in the name of "L" Section I assure you, Sir, of theirs діло Colonel Anderson, gentlemen, has endeared himself to every member of the Corps and we appreciater
enormously the great interest
takes in every member of "L" Scò. tion. You can best repay him by muking yourselves individually und as a Section into the keenost and most efficient In the Corps..
I was present recently at the an- nual dinner of the Royal Artillery Association, and the C.R.A. In his
speech
referred to the spirit of "com. radeship" and "co-operation", That spirit, gentlemen, prevalls within "L" Section, and we are deeply conscious of the great honour of being offliated to the Royal Artillery in Hongkong. "Once a gunner always a gunner that old phrase so dear to us-rings he true to-day as ever, and we are proud of the friendly feeling exis- ting between us all. I must thank OC. 20th. Battery, and especially the three instructors, for their in- valuable help with our training.
Good Training
"L". Section la organized and trained on exactly the same lines as the parent "A" Section, and al- though the training at the start was considerably disjointed, it is now running smoothly. Parades have held twice a month at H.Q, for rific dri
drill and twice month we do gun drill at Belcher's Fort. Certain members
have volunteered for special instruction in DR.F. work and gun laying. on Sunday morn- Ings, proving, if proof indred be necessary, how keen they are.
of
There is one point as your Battery Commander that I must stress-it- tendance at parades. We have a lot ground to cover before comp and have deelded that all parades in January and February will be de- voted to gun drill and battery drill nt Belcher's Fort. If ench men- ber of "L" Section will turn up re- gularly determined to make himself efficient I have no fears of the re- sults we shall obtain at Camp.
I make no apology for striking o -personal note in conclusion will admit I was just a triffe nervous in necepting responsibility for "L" Sec- tion, but how could I refuse- Mr. Moses? He is my friend us he is yours, and anything I have accom- plished has been due almost entire- ly to his efforts. But no section can ever make itself efficient unless each member pulls his full weight. I cannot say how much I appreciate your keenness and your loyalty, but appreciate it most sincerely do, and would ask you this evening to accept my most grateful and heart- felt thanks. (Applause).
