HC Deb 28 November 1928 vol 223 cc436-7W
Mr. RENNIE SMITH

asked the Secretary of State for War how many British troops, and for what length of time, cooperated with the French army in the recent autumn manoeuvres in the occupied German Rhineland; and what was the cost involved for this action by the British troops?

Mr. COOPER

One cavalry regiment took part in the recent French army manoeuvres. The operations, which lasted seven days, formed part of the regiment's annual training, and no excess was involved on the Training Grant.
