How about if you have 16 yrs Army service and are awarded your preserved pension ?

I left after 16 yrs and later applied for and got a war pension, ALSO and a preserved pension.

I was not medically discharged.

how much do you get if you get shot in the leg?

I think that for deafness you have to have over 20% disability now to get anything from WPA. Too many were claiming and getting the one off payments.

I'm also sure you have to have over 20% disability to get a weekly pension. But if you have more than 1 injury they all go towards the final %.

Would 14 Int be classed as special forces?

Not in the wider context IMO, although they have special training they are only used in one area (as far as I know).

How about the VIP close protection teams used by the FCO ?
