Question 2975 — veterans and victims of war

Summary

Mr. Jean-Louis Bricout draws the attention of the Secretary of State, to the Minister of the Armed Forces, to the situation of combatants in North Africa between July 3, 1962 and July 1, 1964. Article L. 253 bis of the code of military disability pensions and war victims creates unequal treatment with the military present on the ground after the independence of Morocco and Tunisia. Fighter Card Contenders can obtain it up to 6 years after the independence of these countries if they justify a presence of 4 months in the area, while the soldiers sent to Algeria after its independence on July 2, 1962 can only claim the title of recognition of the Nation. However, these soldiers experienced truly difficult conditions on the ground, as evidenced by the 535 soldiers who died from 1962 to 1964. Furthermore, their presence in Algeria could lead, for many of them, to a deficiency in their career record in France and harms their retirement rights. He therefore wishes to know the Government's opinion regarding the extension of obtaining the combatant's card to military personnel present in Algeria after its independence.
