HMS SUFFOLK
Suffolk, like her sisters, served on the China Station. In early 1934 she became the flagship of the China Station when Admiral Sir Frederick Dreyer dispatched Kent for a refit in the United Kingdom. She returned home to Portsmouth in July 1935 laden with 100 cases of "priceless" Chinese artifacts for an exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts. The transfer and exhibition were overseen by Dr C W Cheng from the Chinese Embassy in London and other Chinese officials.
