Nuclear Test Veterans

Unread post by Pelican »

This morning the Prime Minister attended a service at @Nat_Mem_Arb, paying tribute to nuclear testing veterans, whose service has preserved peace for over 70 years. The PM announced that their contribution to our safety and way of life will be recognised with a new medal.

A new medal is to honour the significant contribution of veterans of Britain’s nuclear testing programme. At an event today @RishiSunak + @JohnnyMercerUK + @BWallaceMP met with veterans + their families to hear their experiences + remember their service.
