Service Pension Reduction

I reached the magic age of 65 a couple of weeks ago and today was the first payment of my state pension.
However I have also received a letter from the Xafinity Paymaster telling me my service pension is being reduced under national insurance modification rules. In my case a reduction of about 5.5%.

Xafinity Paymaster state that the reason is because between 1948 and 1980 Service personnel did not pay the correct NI Contributions.

Any body know anything about this?
