HC Deb 26 October 1965 vol 718 c29W
Mr. Rowland

asked the Secretary of State for Defence if he will notify national Service men demobilised before 1961 of the conditions now attaching to uniforms kept by them at the time of their demobilisation.

Mr. Mayhew

National Service men are no longer expected to maintain uniforms kept by them on demobilisation. Before they dispose of them or put them to personal use, they should remove badges of rank, medal ribbons, official buttons and any other marks of identification.
