To: Homer_J_Simpson
Prime Minister to Secretary of State for War 2 Mar 43

I agree with the Deputy Prime Minister’s minute about the expenses of military funerals, and I think you should welcome the opportunity of placing all military funerals, whether of soldiers or of officers, on a satisfactory dignified and honourable basis.

Pray let me have amended proposals more in harmony with the spirit of the times. I will assist you with the Treasury.
