Today, after many years of work at the Ministry of Defence, the HM Armed Forces Veteran ID Card application system has gone live.
Part of the Government's ongoing work to improve the lives of all those that have served in our HM Armed Forces, which started with the creation of the Armed Forces Covenant, the new Card will help all veterans access the benefits and support they deserve.
