Remembered Today:

Services of members of Chinese Custom Services

Recommended Posts

I recently came across a book on archive.org called

Record of services given and honours attained by members of the Chinese Customs Service, War 1914-1918

Published 1922, Shanghai

http://archive.org/stream/cu31924023172640#page/n5/mode/2up

The first page lists the names of those who died. The rest of the book describes the war services of those who survived.

Some were associated with the Chinese Labour Corps. Others joined regiments in the British, French or other Armies, or the Navy. Some initially joined Colonial Infantry regiments in China, or a Régiment d’Infanterie Coloniale in China. (It’s not clear whether these are the same regiments or different ones)

Cheers

Maureen
