§ Mr. MACMASTERasked the Secretary for War (1) what provision, if any, has been made by the Graves Commission for commemorating by headstone or otherwise the death or last-known resting-place of those who died in the Great War whose remains were not buried in established cemeteries and whose last resting-place cannot now be identified;
(2) whether, in cases where many of the officers, non-commissioned officers, and men of a particular regiment or battalion were killed in action and whose remains were never identified or, if identified, were buried on the battlefield, but whose places of burial are not susceptible of 2428W identification, provision will be made, if possible, for erecting tombstones on the actual field of battle where they perished or, if that be impossible, in the nearest established cemetery in regimental, battalion, or company groups?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLThe Imperial War Graves Commission have decided that memorials to the dead whose graves have not been found or identified shall be put up in the cemetery near to the spot where they were believed to have lost their lives, or, in the case of men of the Royal Air Force. to the aerodrome from which they started. The form of these memorials has not yet been settled, and the Commission would welcome any suggestions which would assist them in coming to a decision on the matter.
