(Untitled), 07 Feb 1942
Scope and Contents
Telegram from Prime Minister of New Zealand [Peter Fraser] to WSC regarding the decision to order the New Zealand Division into a full operational role in the Western Desert: feels that recent "ill-informed" comments on the very large forces retained inactive in Britain, and the continued use of New Zealand forces in the Middle East, may add point to the demand that New Zealand forces should be returned to the Pacific area to meet the danger nearer home; requests statement of troops held in Britain in order to counter propaganda. [See CHAR 20/70/2-3 for WSC's reply].
