HC Deb 14 March 1944 vol 398 c44W
Miss Ward

asked the Postmaster-General whether, in view of the fact that many civilians vital to the war effort are working in theatres of war under equally difficult conditions to the Services and tied to their posts for the duration, he will endeavour to extend the use of the 6d. air mail letter-card to them.

Mr. R. Grimston

The Air Letter Service is already available to those civilians associated with the Armed Forces abroad who are allowed by the Army authorities to use a military address. My right hon Friend has already had the question of the extension of the service under consideration, but I regret that the amount of aircraft capacity which would be required has not hitherto been available.
