World War II, memories left behind

Hello everyone, continuing the last two episodes of the Coast Guard Museum I hope you will understand carefully what happened in Hong Kong after World War II Stories during World War II STORY DURING WWII The 40mm Bofors anti-aircraft gun was one of the main commercial guns used by the British during World War III. On the eve of the Japanese invasion of Hong Kong, the British deployed this anti-aircraft gun at several anti-aircraft gun forts on Hong Kong Island, including Wong Nai Chung Pass, Stanley, Sai Wan, Hok Tsui, and Chun Kan Kok. The defenders were reportedly during the Battle of Hong Kong. He used this commercial-fired cannon to lift a Japanese aircraft. Also used this against Japanese infantry. From December 24, 1941 to 25 • Soldiers of Midu Rest State and Rajpur Regiment at Conley Bean Hills. Even equipped with this model of high shot total. Guard Street Barris Hill (now Hua Ren Hong Kong, Hong Kong) and Wan Chai Market 40毫米波福斯高射炮是英军在第二次世界大战中使用的主要防空军备之一,在战争爆发前,这些炮已部署在香港岛的防空战区,包括黄麻涌峡、赤柱、沙湾、达古拉角和中红角。 Reportedly. the 40mm Bofors Ant-Aircraft Guns succeeded In shootingdown Japanese alrcraft In the Battle for Hong Kong. They were also used against the Japanese Infantry. The Middlesex and Rajputs troops In Morrison Hll were armed with antralrcraft guns of this type when 他们在1941年12月24至25日期间保卫山堂(今香港华仁书院)和湾仔街市。 Recognizing the strategic value of Devil's Hill, the British built the Portian Chase Fort and Gofu Fort on the mountain in 1903. In 1914, the British army built at the top of the hill fort, used as an artillery command. In the 1930s, the guns of both forts were removed in response to a change in defense plans. In 1957, the British army spread out fort land. The cannon positions, underground ammunition depots and some architectural remains on Devil's Mountain remain. You can visit the Coast Guard Museum Inside there are many bunkers, anti-aircraft guns, tanks, ammunition depots, can be touched, personally felt, every bullet shot through the wall marks, I hope you have a little perception of history. #Shau Kei Wan #Hong Kong Coast Guard Museum #Local Tour #History and Culture Tour #Local Culture
