Captain P. Macdonald
asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he is satisfied that the maximum use is being made of Fijian natives for bush tracking, in which they have great experience?
Colonel Stanley
Yes, Sir. The Fijian Commando troops have already established a reputation for themselves as redoubtable and skilful jungle fighters and are being used to the best advantage by the Allied authorities in operations against the Japanese. I am glad to have this opportunity of paying tribute to their work.
