HC Deb 28 November 1950 vol 481 cc130-1W
92. Mr. Low

asked the Secretary of State for War what weapons, equipment and vehicles have been provided for the 27th and 29th Brigades from United States Army sources, and how they are to be accounted for.

Mr. Strachey

The United States Army has made available to 27th Brigade a number of rocket launchers, with ammunition. It has also been arranged that they will replace destroyed vehicles and provide certain items of common use. No weapons, equipment or vehicles, apart from some engineer stores, have been provided by the United States Army for 29th Brigade Group. Arrangements have been made for all issues of stores or services rendered between the British troops and other national elements of the United Nations Command to be recorded. The form which ultimate settlement will take has not yet been decided.

Forward to
