The family of the most seriously wounded Allied soldier to survive fighting in Afghanistan say he's being let down by the Army - who're threatening him with a military discharge. Lance Bombardier Ben Parkinson, lost both legs, suffered brain damage and a broken back and spent four months in a coma after his Land Rover was ripped apart by an anti-tank mine in September 2006. Military discharge would mean Ben's family paying for all his medical care - which at the moment adds up to 30 hours a week.
