    Hi all:

    I have a reference for a non-sucessful application for Pension/Military Medal 1916-1922 but cant find the application on Military Archives.ie.

    I've tried (I think) all options to search for the file but cant find it. Am I missing something or are unsucessful applications not available on Military Archives.ie.?

    Thanks

    EDIT: I might have found the reason:

    Search Medals Series Database

    CANNOT FIND A FILE?

    - Close to 14,000 Service (1917-1921) Medals were awarded to veterans who unsuccessfully claimed for service pensions. These files belong to the Pension Series and are not available for research at this time. 

    - If your relative was awarded a service pension, a medal was issued to them automatically. In this case, no MD file would have been created for them.
