§ 58. Mr. Christopher Priceasked the Secretary of State for Defence how many officer cadets at Mons Officer Cadet School have died from exhaustion under training since 1945.
§ Mr. BoydenSuch records are not available for the years before 1961. Since that year there have been no fatalities other than the deaths of the two Commonwealth officer cadets who died last week following a patrol and endurance exercise.
I wish to express my deep regret at their deaths and my sympathy with their relatives. There will be a full inquiry.
