Minister for Veterans Appointed
Andrew Robathan MP has been appointed Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Defence and Minister for Veterans and Cadets.
A letter of congratulations and support was sent to the Minister on your behalf and the following reply received: "Thank you for your very kind note congratulating me on my appointment as Defence Minister. I am of course delighted to be appointed and am looking forward immensely to the challenges and responsibilities which lie ahead".
I am sure the minister will support our request for the protection of merchant ships lost during the war and re-consider re-instating Veterans Day which included all those who by their efforts and sacrife ensured success in wars and conflicts.
