The British Guiana Volunteer Force was established sixty years ago in June 1948. It was to be the second to last in a long line of military reserve forces that had been an honourable citizens’ tradition in this country for over 250 years. The Force was to survive only eighteen years until it was abolished in May 1966 to make way for the Guyana Defence Force.
