Who is a veteran of the Adjutant General's Corps?
An Adjutant General's Corps veteran is anyone who has served in the Corps even for just one day and this includes many who are also veterans of our antecedent Corps and Branches who we work alongside in supporting the veteran community.
We are here to support you. If you need advice or assistance please do get in touch with the points of contact below.
While the AGC Headquarters is not resourced to organise events purely for veterans there are lots of opportunities to get involved. Updates will be posted on this website.
If you know of anyone who may benefit from becoming members of our antecedent Associations please do pass on the contact details the Branches are always happy to hear from Veterans that they have lost contact with.
Veterans can now apply for their Veteran Card.
Veterans who left the Armed Forces before December 2018 can verify their veteran status online with a new digital application service to receive a Veteran Card through the post. A paper-based application process is also available as an alternative to the digital system.
The Veteran Card will provide veterans with a clear recognition of service, a tangible link to the Armed Forces, and allow them to easily verify their veteran status to access support and services from government, charities, and local authorities.
