ONUS ON MEN
TERRITORIAL PARADES
COMPULSORY THAINING
The onus is now on territorials to "ascertain when parades are to be held. Training is compulsory, and ii is pointed out by the Army authorities that any territorial who attends regularly can ascertain from routine orders posted at his unit headquarters when the next paradr is to be held. Ignorance cannot be pleaded as an cxcuse for non-at-tendance.
When a soldier is prevented by some reason from attending a j>arade, there is a liability on him to explain satisfactorily his absence, and, in addition, to ascertain the date of the next parade. In the case of special parades, the usual custom will probably be followed of written notice from headquarters, but this is dependent on the adjutant of the particular company concerned, and it will be sufficient intimation if such notice is posted in. routine orders. The territorial training responsibilities of these territorials whose names appeared in the recent ballot for overseas service has ceased, and they have been transferred from th*i Territorial Force to their respective area pools for posting to the Expeditionary Force.
