Menu from 50 Hong Kong Workshop REME
  • A dragon featured in the cap badge of the Hong Kong Military Service Corps, who worked closely with British forces including REME.
  • The main REME unit in Hong Kong was 50 Command Workshop, or 50 Hong Kong Workshop as it was later known. They frequently used dragons in designs of their trophies. We (REME Museum) even have a menu where the horse in the REME cap badge printed on the front was replaced by a dragon.
