I am really glad that stuff like this makes the papers - what a shameful way to treat someone who's served their country.

I hope the publicity that this article generates will see this man's situation remedied.

Where's the money to come from, current greedy politicians need it to house their ducks and keep their moats full. They have no interest in former service me who fought to keep this country free, might have been better if the Axis countries had won.
