Curtis Green,

14 September, 1967.

48

Many thanks for your letter of 4 September, which George Thomas passed to me, suggesting that planning to reduce the Hong Kong garrison by the equivalent of one major unit should cease for the time being.

I agree entirely with your views and am very glad that the

Commander-in-Chief Far East has been instructed accordingly.

G. W. REYNOLDS, ESQ., MP.
