MESSAGE FROM REICH
MONTGOMERY DELIGHTED
Rec. 10.30 a.m. LONDON, Sept. 5. "I am delighted to hear that my old friend General Freyberg has been appointed Governor-General of New Zealand," said Field-Marshal Montgomery. "He has been my comrade in many battles. He and his gallant men from New Zealand fought with me in Africa and Italy. "Nobody who served in the Bth Army will ever forget the New Zealand Division and its gallant commander. All of us here in Germany who fought with the Bth Army send greetings to General Freyberg. We hope he and Lady Freyberg will have every success and happiness in the great work to which they are called."
