HC Deb 18 June 1948 vol 452 cc91-2W
Mr. Baker White

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department why the crosses have been removed from the graves of German soldiers and airmen buried at St. Brelades Bay, Jersey; and whether it is proposed to replace them.

Mr. Ede

I understand that the crosses were removed to permit the levelling and resowing of the graves—a measure necessary for maintenance—and will be replaced as soon as this can be done without damage to the new turf.
