From a statement in Feruary 1960.

I joined the Hongkong Government in 1934 as a mechanic in Radio Workshop, GPO, until 1941, when the Colony was occupied by the Japanese.  I went to Free China, where I worked in the Chinese Government Radio Communication Service up to 1943, when I joined the BAAG Wireless Station in Kweiin under Major Hall Caine.   During the Kweilin evacuation I was transferred to the British Embassy Chungkiing as a Technician.
