Remembered Today:

rejection

Recommended Posts

Hello,

My grandfather served 10/11/1915 - 28/6/1921 and was awarded B.W, V.Medal and 1914-15 Star. On a couple of 'slips' I received from H.D. Glasgow {Army Book 358} under the heading- Rate of Pension awarded {if any} it states rejected! Why? Surely after winning medals he should not be rejected! Any ideas why?

Regards

Alan

Alan,

Men enlisting 'for the duration' were not entitled to a pension on discharge, unless discharged disabled, when a medical pension would be payable.

Regards

Steve
