The Wild Tiger Corps (Thai: กองเสือป่า) was a national paramilitary corps founded in Thailand in 1911 by King Rama VI. Inspired by the British Volunteer Force, the unit was intended to maintain civil order. The unit drew its Thai name from the Sua Pa Maew Morn scout corps founded by King Naresuan around 1600 AD. The Wild Tiger Corps also included a junior division known as ''Luk Sua'' ("Tiger Cubs") based on the Boy Scout movement. The origins of the beverage company Osotspa date to 1900, when a pharmaceutical product called ''Kilane'' was developed by the Pae family in response to a dysentery outbreak within the corps. The epidemic was cleared in days and Mrs. Pae was awarded the "Wild Tiger Corps" pin. The movement was quietly disbanded after the Palace Revolt of 1912. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wild Tiger Corps」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
