§ 33. Mr. CARYasked the Secretary of State for War the nature and extent of the decisions of the Imperial General Staff in regard to Army manoeuvres this year; whether the co-operation of the other fighting Services is to be sought; whether official invitations to attend are to be issued to foreign observers; and, if so, which nations are to be so favoured?
Mr. COOPERIt is proposed to put the Military Manoeuvres Acts into operation in parts of Surrey and Sussex during the period 15th July to 14th October, when certain brigade training and divisional exercises will take place. Normal training will also be carried out by units in the neighbourhood of their peace stations. As in previous years, Air Force units will co-operate with Army units in the larger exercises, and a combined exercise is being arranged with the Royal Navy near Milford-on-Sea in September. The usual invitations to attend the collective training will be sent to all foreign military attaches and assistant military attaches in London.
§ Mr. BOSSOMAs we are inviting foreigners to see these manoeuvres can a cinema film be taken so that our own people may also see them?
