This is appalling.
The widows SHOULD be allowed to have the medals/badge and wear them if they so wish. I think families are entitled to some recognition of their families war contribution.
My Grandad was told he would not get the veterans medal because, I quote, 'he was only in the administrative staff of the MOD during the war and therefore, not a veteran'
His MP took it up and he got one in the end.£2 Coin Savers Club (Christmas)- £86£1 Jar (Christmas)- £29Christmas Vouchers Saved: £1450
