IMPROVE SYSTEM OF
NOTIFYING KIN OF
SOLDIER ARRIVALS
To meet the situtation of increasing
numbers of troops arrivingirom Over-
seas, District Military Headquarters at
London have outlined improvements
in the system of notifying next-of-kin
of dates and times of train arrivals in
London, particularly in respect to ad-
vising next-of-kin as quickly as pos-
sible of delays or changes in arrival
times . . to try and avoid disappoint-
ments at railway stations.
The new system, which is now in
effect, features the sending of letters
to next-of-kin as soon as copies of the
Nominal Roll of a troopship are re-
ceived in London, Next-of-kin of each
of the 'personnel listed are (1). advised
of the pending arrival in Canada, and
(2) asked to contact the person on
duty at their loeal Armouries and leave
with him a teleplione number at which
a message may be left for them, so
they may be informed immediately
when the expected time of arrival in
London is telephoned to the Armouries
from District Headquarters,
District Headquarters explained that
on account of the considerably larger
numbers of Overseas troops returning
to Western Ontario, it would' be an
imposition to allow volunteer services
to carry the full burden of notifying
next-of-kin of train arrivals, and the
more difficult 'task 'of advising them
of changes and postponements. in' such
arrivals. That is why the system of
notification has been modified' and; ex-
tended to put the added weight of re-
sponsibility on Army offices, in, the
District.
Military authorities stated they
wished to make it clear that the new'
system in no way affects plans, or• pm-
grams of welcome that volunteer serv-
ices' and other organizations, are spon-
soring so splendidly. on behalf, of re-
turning war veterans.
Letters of notification to' next-of-
kin will identify a troop• movement
from Overseas by the name, of the
troopship, where possible:. If the
name of the vessel is non known im-
mediately, first identification, of the
movement will be by number Cfor ex-
ample, Vessel No. 890).
It was explained that the. Nominal
Roll of a troopship is compiled before
the vessel sails, and last-minute
changes may be expected! However,
next-of-kin affected by, changes in the
Roll are notified by telephone as
speedily as possible by their local
Armouries.
Officials pointed out also, that troop
trains are often delayect en route,
necessitating changes in the time' of
arrival in London, All Armouries are
notified of such changes, and, in cases
of train delays of'more, than five hours,
next-of-kin are notified by telephone
as far as possible by their local Arm-
ouries. The information is also sent
out immediately to newspapers and
radio stations in M. D I.
District Headquarters stressed that
next-of-kin can be advised of the ar-
rival of soldiers in London only, and
not when they may reach their home
towns,
