Soldiers of the King's African Rifles search an abandoned hut during the Malayan Emergency

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Troops of A Company, 3rd (Kenya) Battalion, King's African Rifles, search an abandoned hut during the Malayan Emergency.

Due to the inability of the British colonial authorities in Malaya to recruit enough Malaysians to fight against communist rebels belonging to the Malayan Communist Party (MCP) and the Malayan National Liberation Army (MNLA), soldiers from across the British Empire were deployed to the region, including from Britain's colonies in Africa.
