Sergeant Matthew Telford of the Grenadier Guards was promoted to the rank in
June 2009.
In November of that same year, Sergeant Telford was one of 5 British
soldiers killed when a rogue Afghan policeman opened fire on them.
His wife and family will only receive a Corporal's pension since he only
held his rank of Sergeant for less than a year.However, he was killed on
operations by the enemy whilst wearing three stripes of a Sergeant on active
service.
Please sign the petition below to support a change in the rules that deny a
hero's widow the pension she deserves.
Please forward onto any sympathetic contacts that you may have in your
address book.
It took me less than 2 minutes to do this; it really is very simple to do.
Please forward to your friends and colleagues
LOOKS LIKE THE SHORTCUT LINK IS BROKEN
