Rejected petition National Service Medal

More details

Those who have given extended service to Her Majesty's Armed Forces have selflessly surrendered part of their lives in order to serve their country. Some pay the ultimate price, but most leave the services, their sacrifice a thing of the past.

While those who are deployed to combat zones are decorated with medals, there are many who have loyally served, prepared to go into combat, but not called upon to do so.

They should be honoured with a National Service Medal, awarded to all who have served at least 12 years, as proposed by UKIP.
