No.49 IP Kam-wing was leader of BAAG FIGS Group P formed circa July 1944. It was an out-growth of Group M which consisted largely of former HK Police Rerservists.
Ip Kam Wing was one of David Loie's group of police reservists, some of whom were tragically caught when 'M' group was broken. He then was picked to lead a new Group, 'P', and was given a new number. He was the brother-in-law of Lai Chak Po. I have about 7 entries against his name. If anyone would like to apply, I will gladly send these.
As far as the main points are, I have gathered the following:
His year of birth was about 1913.
Before the war he was a stenographer working for the Asiatic Petroleum Co for about 6 years.
After the fall of Hongkong he became an assistant in his father's large emporium, the Shui Hing emporium, which was situated near the Dairy Farm in Nathan Road, Kowloon.
My first mention of his BAAG activity is dated June 1942.
