§ Sir H. Morris-Jonesasked the Secretary of State for War whether a visor for the protection of the eyes against fragments from explosives, attached to the steel helmet and so arranged as to be used as occasion requires, may be made a standard equipment of the Army and the Local Defence Volunteers?
§ Mr. EdenAs indicated in the answer given by my predecessor on 7th May last to my hon. and gallant Friend the Member for Lonsdale (Sir I. Fraser), it has been decided to carry out a large scale trial with a visor incorporated in the steel helmet. Supplies of these visors are beginning to come forward and it is hoped that the trial will soon take place.
