Subject: Unfair treatment of Soldiers
Sergeant Matthew Telford of the Grenadier Guards was one of those 5 British soldiers who died when attacked by a rogue Afghan policeman. He had been promoted to the rank of Sergeant in June 2009 but his family will only receive a Corporal's pension as he only held the 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.
If you feel that this is unjust, please sign the petition below to support a change in the rules that deny a hero’s widow the pension she deserves:

I know that rules are rules, but..........
