§ 31. Mr. DAWESasked the Secretary of State for War whether the Territorial formation called the 271st London Divisional Engineers (Signals) was reduced to cadre strength some time back and the remaining men, most of whom joined in, 1914, were informed that they would very shortly be demobilised; and when he expects that the demobilisation will be effected?
Captain GUESTI regret that it is not possible to identify the unit which my hon. Friend has in mind. If he will verify the particulars given or furnish some additional information, I shall be happy to have further inquiry made. In any case, all men who are eligible for demobilisation are being released as rapidly as the exigencies of the Service permit.
