I agree with Gabe that the abbreviation K.P.R. did stand for Kenya Police
Reserve.
A few Europeans and Asians were recruited for this force. The Kenya Regiment
was made up of more hardy young men.
Another aspect I found a trifle difficult to believe was where one
interviewee
says that she could hear the "cries"(or words to that effect) of those who
were being attacked. Throughout
my own experiences during the Mau Mau Emergency, I cannot recall any Goan
or
other family living with earshot of such atrocities.
