Sir J. HOPEasked the Secretary of State for War whether a soldier who was wounded in August, 1918, and discharged on 9th March, 1920, with an 80 per cent. disablement pension owing to loss of eye and other injuries, is entitled to receive the Silver War Badge?
§ Sir A. WILLIAMSONThe Silver War Badge is not issued to those who have retired or been discharged from the Military Forces subsequent to 31st December, 1919, and I regret, therefore, that the soldier referred to in the question is not eligible.
