170
General Freyberg to the Minister of Defence

8 June 1940

The following message has been received from Falla:

Aldershot reconnoitred today; with a view to facilitating training a generally satisfactory camp has been selected. The Artillery are at Bourley, the infantry, Royal Corps of Signals, and administrative headquarters at Mytchett, Maoris and Medical at Ewshott, Army Service Corps and Engineers at Eelmoor.

I have looked up the areas and they seem quite suitable. Anyway, as no other arrangements are possible it would appear that we must agree.
