News of the successful assault was given to the Queen at Buckingham Palace last night. It was first made public by United States radio stations shortly before midnight, and was confirmed in New Delhi in a message from Colonel Hunt, the leader of the expedition. It had previously been arranged that the British Embassy in Katmandu, Nepal, should inform the Queen directly if the expedition succeeded - if possible by the day of her Coronation.
