A staff car is escorted along a road lined with civilians by military police motorcycles. A crowd of civilians lead a procession carrying banners. A column of Chinese cavalry on horseback. Various shots of procession and crowds. A string of firecrackers exploding on the ground.

Notes

Dopesheet identifies the Chinese unit seen in this film with considerable precision as the 267th Infantry Regiment, 89th Division, 13th Chinese (Nationalist) Army. It adds that these troops had been first sighted marching over the hills towards Hong Kong by RAF Spitfires (presumably of RAF 132 Squadron) who were able to provide an accurate estimated time of arrival.

Security arrangements for this event were apparently organised by Wing Commander Miller of the RAF Police.
