1902 Shan Rebellion in Northern Thailand (3)




Captain Hans Jensen.

Captain
Marqvard Jensen’s bravery is not forgotten, and his name has been recalled now
and then through all these years. In 1929 a Dane, Mr. Steiner wrote to The
Committee for The Danish Society and told them that the original eight foot
tall memorial post at kilometer 130 had fallen to pieces. It bore the
inscription: ‘Here fell Captain Jensen in a battle with the Shan’
