In some places they have hospitals where there is the same freedom of admission and one of the most delightful experiences on going round the Colony is to suddenly alight on one of these treatment centres, and to see how completely the Commandos have won the confidence and friendship of the Chinese population, especially the children. They are first rate ambassadors for great Fritain.
