As an ex-forces soldier who is in receipt of an army pension after serving 22 years, I am working in an ordinary job but but my army pension puts me into the higher tax bracket. This is wrong in my opinion. British service personnel put their lives on the line, and this should be recognised in tax arrangements for military pensions.
