HC Deb 17 October 1916 vol 86 c346
35. Mr. BILLING

asked the Secretary of State for War whether, in view of the fact of the exceptional individual heroism necessary and peculiar to the duties of an airman on active service, more especially in engaging a Zeppelin in darkness, he will advise His Majesty to create a special distinction for airmen?

Mr. LLOYD GEORGE

In war time the awards which are open to officers and men of the Army are considered to be adequate for services of any nature.
