H.K.S. R. A. CENTENARY
The Hongkong and Singapore Royal Artillery, an integral part of the British defence forces in the Far East, colebrates this year the 100th anniversary of its formation. In Hongkong, the cent- onary will be observed later in the year, but in Singapore the Corps recently held a centenary parade to mark the occasion. Picture above shows some of the H.K.S.R.A. assembled at the parado to hear a message of congratulation from H.M. the King.

a good idea of the fine type of men who compose the Corps, which is commanded by British officers and Indian officers holding the King's Commission.
In a hundred years, the Corps has changed its weapons from clumsy, muzzle loaders oporating against slow-moving ground targets to all types of modern guns, including quick-firing Bofors anti-aircraft guni, one of which is shown above. The Bofors gun has proven its efficiency against high-spood planes, and makes up an important part of the aorial defence of Malaya.
