HC Deb 10 October 1944 vol 403 cc1590-1W
Mr. Wootton-Davies

asked the Secretary of State for War the total number of King's Corporals; how many have been created during the present war; what are the rules and conditions governing the rank, together with the award and privileges; and whether he can give a list of such King's Corporals together with the reasons for the appointment in each case.

Sir J. Grigg

Extensive investigations have failed to disclose any factual basis for the suggestion made from time to time that there is, or has been within living memory, any such rank as King's Corporal.
