David Tattersfield Posted 27 December , 2018 Posted 27 December , 2018 Yes, p.w.e. is pre war earnings. As Craig has rightly suggested this is probably taken from an "alternative" pension ledger and these cases were designed to be a function of earnings prior to the war.
David Tattersfield Posted 28 December , 2018 Posted 28 December , 2018 Given the fact this is a clip from an alternative pension, there should be another ledger for the same man representing the first pension claim (ie prior to the claim for the "alternative" pension)
