Mau Mau Emergency - Surrender Pass January 1955

These surrender passes were dropped by the British as part of an amnesty offered to Mau Mau activists on 18 January 1955 by the Governor-General of Kenya, Evelyn Baring. The offer was that they would not face prosecution for previous offences, but may still be detained. According to Wikipedia (entry retrieved 13 Feb 2017) "European settlers were appalled at the leniency of the offer. On 10 June 1955 with no response forthcoming, the offer of amnesty to the Mau Mau was revoked." This document was brought back to the UK by a soldier doing National Service with the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers in Kenya.
