the Right Honorable Mr Fraser. Mention is made by the Prime Minister of
the achievements of Lieut. Moananui-a-Kiwa Ngarimu from Ruatoria in Gisborne and that "other Sergeant of the Māori Battalion" (Manahi?) and " if he and his companions don't get the VC, they deserve it".

The Prime Minister then called Gen. Freyberg to address the gathering.

command in particular at Mersa Matru.
