Steve,
That was the border between Hong Kong and China. the RHKR was responsible for patroling and maintaining the border between HK and China.
The RHKR was a reconnasissance regiment, therefore we had some scout armor trucks and lots of rovers.
I did not do any offroading in Hong Kong, those rovers didn't do any real offroading like you guys do (at least it did not while I was there. )
Steve, Late 70s.... it is too early for me I joined in 88
Anyway, Sing Darn Fai Lok to you too...
