A former British Army officer said there have been “failures to protect service personnel” as he and another former serviceman settled legal claims against the Ministry of Defence (MoD) over hearing loss suffered during their service for more than £700,000.
Retired lieutenant colonel Andrew Davies, who served in the Royal Engineers for almost 40 years, said the settlement of his case for £182,250, announced at the High Court, “does finally acknowledge what I lost and provides some justice”.
