HC Deb 21 February 1916 vol 80 c427
61. Mr. W. THORNE

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War if he will state the reason for the dismissal of Private T. H. Dammery, National Reserve, No. 18244, Greenwich Battalion, on 5th January, whilst on guard duty at Abbey Wood; whether this man is considered to be finally discharged from the Army; and, if so, will he state why the proper certificate of discharge has not been given to him?

Mr. TENNANT

I am not acquainted with the particular circumstances of the case of Private Dammery. The National Reserve is not a part of the Army, and the name of any individual may be removed from the register of National Reservists by a County Association in their discretion.
