But WHY?

Further needless Americanisation...... "Thank you for your service" etc etc

Once in civvy street a veteran becomes like any other person. Needless expense.

A veteran NEVER becomes like any other person. Unless you have done it or been there, you wouldn't know :lol:

Not all veterans have a driving licence. Some are blind as a result of their participation in conflicts.
In Israel they all get an ID card if they apply for one; so in UK why not just do that?
An ID card IS very useful to the holders of them.

They are producing an ID card for those who don't drive...for those that do, probably easier to 'modify' there driving license

This is just a gimmick. They would help veterans better if they would provide them with housing at the end of their service.
