The participants, among whom were many members of Jewish units of the Forces, were enthusiastically cheered by the large crowds which lined the streets and filled the balconies. The marines are seen marching along King George Avenue, with the beflagged offices of the Jewish Agency and the Jewish National Fund and the Yeshurun Synagogue in the background. The photograph in the upper left shows a contingent of the Auxiliary Territorial Service (wom- en) which looked smart and formed a notable feature of the parade.

These pictures were received recently from Palestine at the offices of the Jewish National Fund of America.
