My Fellow Schoolmates "Dai Lo s"

Unlike you both who started school at DBS before WWII, I joined DGS (at Jordan Rd) in February, 1946 as DBS was still closed after being used as a military hospital by the Japanese. The playing field was also partly used a burial ground and a dangerous goods or munitions magazine located at the bottom of the school drive. The school did not re-open until September, 1946 or thereabouts after some building renovation, exhumation of human remains and removal of all dangerous goods. Thereafter, all the boys temporary accommodated in DGS were transferred back to DBS with quite a lot of new enrolment as many people who sought refuge elsewhere during the war, (many in Macau) gradually returned to HK.
