HC Deb 31 July 1916 vol 84 cc2094-5W
Mr. GILBERT

asked the Secretary of State for War whether it is the intention of the War Office to exhibit in London any of the captured guns and trophies obtained during the recent advance by London and other regiments; and, if so, can he state when and where such an exhibition will be held?

Mr. FORSTER

Yes, Sir, such an exhibition will be held, and particulars of the place and date will, of course, be announced as soon as they are settled.

Sir A. WILLIAMSON

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he will recognise the distinguished services of Highland regiments by placing some of the captured German guns in the North of Scotland; and whether he will place one in Cooper Park, Elgin?

Mr. FORSTER

I would refer the hon. Baronet to the answer I gave on the 24th July to the hon. Member for South Islington. Application should be made to the General Officer Commanding-in-Chief in Scotland.
