At the risk of appearing mercenary, I have absolutely no qualms about using my DDS/Blue Light/Rewards For Forces/Halfords Trade cards to obtain discount. If it's available I'll take it thank you very much.
If people who did a single day in the Forces can obtain discount why shouldn't anybody who has served in the Forces, through our own choice or due to conscription ? Whether up the "sharp end" or not, everyone has/had a purpose or some SDSR would have cut them.

I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could
There is also UK Merchant Seafarers veterans badge. All those on the Stuff ships would have qualified.

Anyone know where I can get evidence of service from to prove to DDS that I served? I have a DPA subject access request form but I am not even sure what to ask for. Airmen/SNCOs get a letter of discharge but all I got was a letter from AO thanking me for 28years unblemished (SIC) service and an interview with OCPSF.

Bladdered, just apply with rank, name, number. If you think about it anyone could send in a copy of papers or use a live RNN. There has to be an element of trust.
Bladdered - write to: HQ Air Command, RAF DPA, Room14, Trenchard Hall, RAF cranwell, Sleaford NG34 8HB.
I had the same prob - they will supply you with a Certified True Statement of Service (in pretty colours and with an official stamp!!)

All this grubbing around for a few pence off 'cos of voluntary career choices is tacky beyond belief ... or it would be without the evidence of previous 'troughing' such as the scramble for additional pensions for 'hearing loss' etc. A proportion of ex-Service people will always chase any 'gizzits', citing special status or some such rot. Greed is naturally prevalent - some have it in their nature.
Nurses needing to use food banks?? now there's a thought!
