Part of Singapore's ongoing Nature Series, this issue commemorates Labrador Nature Reserve — the only rocky sea-cliff natural habitat on the mainland, and the site of a British coastal artillery battery that fired its guns during the Japanese advance in February 1942. The battery's 6-inch guns were oriented seaward, a disposition famously useless against an overland assault from the north.
