HC Deb 22 December 1915 vol 77 c458
29. Sir J. LONSDALE

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War why the Crown Prince of Prussia remains in the official Army List as Colonel-in-Chief of the 11th Hussars?

Mr. TENNANT

The hon. Member is, I think, misinformed. The name of the Crown Prince of Prussia, together with those of the two Allied Emperors, was omitted from the Official Army Lists, both monthly and quarterly, as long ago as October, 1914. I believe a statement has appeared in the "Almanach de Gotha" to the effect mentioned in the question, but I have, of course, no control over that publication.

Sir J. LONSDALE

Does the right hon. Gentleman say that the name of the Crown Prince of Prussia does not appear in the existing Army List?

Mr. TENNANT

Yes, Sir. It has not appeared since October, 1914.
