HC Deb 02 December 1919 vol 122 cc201-2
38. Mr. MATTHEWS

asked the Secretary of State for War whether the members of the Volunteer Force who served during the whole period of the War are to receive any medal for the same; and, failing general recognition, are those officers and other ranks who gave up three months at personal sacrifice to act as the mainstay of the national defence on the East Coast from June to September, 1918, to receive any recognition for their services in a time of great need?

Mr. CHURCHILL

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply on the 5th November to my hon. and gallant Friend the Member for South Tottenham, to the effect that the matter is now under consideration.
