HC Deb 23 November 1939 vol 353 c1425W
Mr. J. Morris

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware of the grave apprehension felt by members of the Jewish community regarding the fate of members of that community serving in His Majesty's Forces who may be captured by the enemy; and will he see to it that the existing regulations will be altered so that it may be permissive for members of the Jewish community serving in His Majesty's Forces to have embossed on identification discs the description of their religion?

Sir V. Warrender

This question has been carefully considered, and it has been decided not to depart from the present practice.
