AU FAI, AU YIN FEI [????-????]

Head of a naval intelligence group in Hongkong.   Citation: 

“This man came out of Hongkong early in 1942, and volunteered his services to the BAAG.  Owing to his connections with the Naval Yard, he was instructed to set up an intelligence team to report on movements of P/Ws by ship.  His group worked so well that it soon developed into our most accurate and reliable source of enemy shipping and naval intelligence gained from official enemy records of sailings, cargoes and naval stores.  Au Fai paid such strict attention to security that throughout the three years that his group operated inside enemy naval yards and offices, not one man was caught.  He was not only responsible for the collection of the intelligence but also for its safe delivery to Waichow.  In 1944, it was considered advisable to change the route lest his runners became known to the enemy and he organised and carried out the complete change over of the route from Hongkong-Waichow to Hongkong-Samfou.  This was accomplished without loss of personnel or continuity of his weekly reports.  His is an example of outstanding devotion to duty and of most valuable and efficient service.”
