Singapore Volunteer Corps

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Singapore Volunteer Corps (or Singapore Special Constabulary) was a militia unit which was established in 1854 but was disbanded in 1887. However, they were reorganized in the early 20th century to encompass all volunteer units in Singapore. In 1954 the Singapore Volunteer Corps were absorbed into the Singapore Military Forces. David Saul Marshall, a well known figure in the early politics of independent Singapore, is noted to have served in the Singapore Volunteer Corps.
