What the petition asks

My husband was in the Army for 13 years, he was in The Kings Royals Hussars. During his time he served in the Gulf, Northern Ireland and Kosovo. Over the past few years, because of shift patterns, his work day has fallen on remembrance Sunday and he has been unable to parade with his comrades.
