TANK TRAINING
New Zealanders May Go To United States
STEP BEING CONSIDERED
“The sending of New Zealanders to the United States for training in handling tanks is definitely under consideration, but it is inevitable that if the Dominion is to be properly defended, as it is contemplated that it will be, then the training of men to handle tanks must be undertaken here,” said the Acting-Prime Minister, Mr. Nash, last night. The Minister was discussing a statement by Mr. Coates, Minister without portfolio and a member of the War Cabinet, about the training of some New Zealand personnel in tanks. He added that the United States Army had a tank training school, where training in every phase of tank handling was available.
