HC Deb 04 June 1940 vol 361 cc752-3
12. Captain Plugge

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he will consider making, for public information and encouragement, a statement as to the military training now being imparted to the numbers of young men who have been called up?

Mr. Eden

The men who have been called up receive the normal military train- ing given to recruits, and I should add that their keenness enables them to make rapid progress. It is not in the public interest to give any further details of this training.
