HC Deb 09 June 1902 vol 109 c85
SIR HOWARD VINCENT

To ask the Secretary of State for War if at some points it will be possible to allow officers of the Army and Navy and Auxiliary Forces in uniform to stand on foot within the lines of sentries during the Coronation processions, as at Her late Most Gracious Majesty's funeral, but on the distinct understanding that they are not to attempt to follow the processions.

(Answer.) I am afraid that it will not be possible to carry out this suggestion. Some confusion was caused at the late Queen's funeral by those within the line of sentries.—(War Office.)
