Loose photo of HMS Bonaventure arriving in Hong Kong found among the papers of Captain W.R. Fell. Caption on back reads "Coming alongside at Kowloon - pinnacle on distant hill is Jap memorial near summit of peak HK." We may find the exact date in W.R. Fell's diaries. In the meantime there is an account of HMS Bonaventure's various missions at http://www.royalnavyresearcharchive.org.uk/BPF-EIF/Ships/BONAVENTURE.htm... A photo of her at Hong Kong is already on Gwulo.
