HC Deb 25 March 1942 vol 378 cc1985-6
39. Mr. Denville

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether he will give consideration to the claim of air gunners in the Fleet Air Arm that their rank should be equivalent to that of air gunners in the Royal Air Force?

The First Lord of the Admiralty (Mr. A. V. Alexander)

This question has already been considered, and the view of the Admiralty is that the status of air gunners of the Fleet Air Arm, which I explained to the hon. Member on nth March, is appropriate to their duties.
