(de) 星华义勇军（英語：Dalforce）是一个第二次世界大战英属海峡殖民地志願军属下的非正式游击队。由新加坡华侨成立（成立年份不详，但于1939年已经存在），并于1941年12月25日由马来亚秘密警察部队的约翰·达利中校正式收编到马来半島英军司令部属下的海峽殖民地志願軍之中。由于将领姓氏为达利，于是英殖民地政府称星华义勇军为“达军”（Dalforce）。此军队参与了新加坡戰役，而新加坡沦陷后一些成员继续对日本皇军展开游击战。星华义勇军在战役中的勇猛表现，促使英国人给他们取了“达利的亡命之徒”（Dalley's Desperadoes）的外号。 (zh) Dalforce, or the Singapore Overseas Chinese Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army (星華義勇軍; Xinghua Yi Yong Jun) was an irregular forces/guerrilla unit within the British Straits Settlements Volunteer Force during World War II.
