Repeat Washington EX-35.
1. National Defence are now prepared to release the armament and ancillary equipment for a second division. Could you ask the Deputies, as you did before in the case of the first division, for a recommendation as to which country or countries should receive it. 2. Arrangements for replacement from the United States of the first division's equipment are progressing satisfactorily and should no unforeseen difficulties arise, the offer to NATO of a second division's equipment may be regarded as firm. 3. National Defence will be making available to A/V/M Campbell in Washington a detailed list of the equipment offered, for the information of the accredited representatives of member countries interested in the offer. | |
