Rejected petition Recognising the wounded

More details

For the British Government to give recognition to those injured on active service by issuing a medal for wounds received, similar to the American Purple Heart.

Too often politicians will forget about those who will have to struggle in life after getting wounded in battle, they have fought on all our behalves, in particular the politicians, who after all sent them into theatre.
