Recognition of armed forces personnel wounded in terrorist attacks outside of operational deployment

That this House recognises the courage and sacrifice of members of His Majesty’s armed forces who have been wounded or injured in terrorist attacks outside of official operational deployment; pays tribute to the resilience and lifelong impact borne by those service personnel and their families; notes that such attacks were acts of terrorism directed at members of the armed forces while serving their country, albeit not on designated operational duty; expresses concern that existing medallic recognition does not always adequately or specifically reflect the unique circumstances of those wounded in terrorist incidents outside formal theatres of war; acknowledges the campaign by affected veterans and their families for appropriate and distinct recognition; and calls on the Government to review current medallic arrangements with a view to establishing a specific medal, clasp, or formal recognition for members of the armed forces wounded in terrorist attacks outside of official deployment, ensuring their sacrifice is properly and permanently honoured.
