This note is a supplement to some recent work of R. B. Bapat on Moore-Penrose inverses of set inclusion matrices. Among other things Bapat constructs these inverses (in case of existence) for H(s,k) mod p, p an arbitrary prime, 0 = s = k = v-s. Here we restrict ourselves to p=2. We give conditions for s,k which are easy to state and which ensure that the Moore-Penrose inverse of H(s,k) mod 2 equals its transpose. E.g., H(s,v-s) mod 2 has this property. Furthermore Ker H(s,v-s) mod 2 is nonzero if 0 2s v = 3s and then there is a decomposition

$\displaystyle {\rm Ker}\, H(s,v-s) \equiv \underset {2 \mid \binom{v-s-j } { v-2s}} {\sum _ {0 \le j \le s-1}} {\rm Im}\,H(v-s,v-j)\ {\rm mod}\ 2.$


Also, refinements of this decomposition are given.
