Who is a "veteran" in the UK?
Veterans are defined as anyone who has served for at least one day in His/Her Majesty's Armed Forces (Regular or Reserve) or Merchant Mariners who have seen duty on legally defined military operations. Many former Armed Forces personnel in the UK do not define themselves as "veterans".
The term "veteran" is used to represent all former Armed Forces personnel. UK war dead are not defined as veterans. That includes US nationals that died in the service of the British Crown and are recognised as war dead by the CWGC.
