Burma image, WA0078. Self and party of forty five Nung recruits at Kawnglu. P.R. Green recruited forty five Nung men on his recruitment campaign in the Triangle. Upon enlisting they were taken down to the British Fort at Kawnglu. *****Kawnglu fort is, like Hpimaw Fort, situated on the shoulder of a sheep spur. It was impossible on account of the clouds in which we lived at this altitude (about 6000 feet - that is 2000 feet lower than at Hpimaw) to obtain a comprehensive view of the surrounding country; but immediately behind us rose the mountains, densely clothed with thick forest, which we had just crossed, and below the country fell away rapidly to the bottom valleys and foot hills bordering the plain, which, as the crow flies, was not far distant. There were no more mountains between us and Fort Hertz, six marches away? [?In Farthest Burma?, Capt. F. Kingdon Ward, 1921, p.214]
