He served 20 years 351 days. Four years 209 days in Singapore and four years 38 days in Hong Kong. His conduct was good. He was 5ft 8 ins tall
Complexion fair.
Eyes dark
Hair Dark  brown.

That is all I have time for.

Jebber, if you'd had time to look at the TNA link I gave, then pretty well of that is on the WO 116 record!
Conduct V Good.
