§ Mr. Wedgwoodasked the Secretary of State for War whether any Palestinian units, or any Jews serving in the British Army, combatant or non-combatant, were employed in Greece or Crete; if so, how many were left behind; and is there any information as to their subsequent fate?
§ Captain MargessonPalestinian units were employed both in Greece and Crete, and 1,541 Palestinians are presumed to be prisoners of war. The number of Jews serving in the British Army who were captured in Greece and Crete could not be ascertained without a great deal of research. According to my latest information, all British prisoners captured in Greece and Crete are being moved to198W camps in Germany as soon as possible. There is no evidence of any discrimination against any particular category of prisoner.
