Sir,
(PF 11 SEP 95]
Regarding letter read to the Staff this morning
relative to Warders being required for Hongkong, I respect-
-fully request to become an applicant.
I am a married man and have one child, would
prefer to go myself, but in the event of my service being
accepted I would expect my wife and child's passage paid
should I wish them to join me at some future date.
I am &c.,
(Signed)
David Welch,
II CL.
