HC Deb 23 June 1921 vol 143 c1573W
Major COHEN

asked the Secretary of State for War what was the total number of silver badges given to discharged soldiers during the War, and how many of the recipients hold a commissioned rank?

Sir L. WORTHINGTON-EVANS

The total number of silver War badges awarded to date is 1,228,882. I regret that I am unable to give separately the number of badges awarded to commissioned officers as the records are not kept in a form which would enable the information to be readily prepared.
