With regards to the Driving Licence ‘V’, you have to bear in mind that the addition of the ‘V’ is voluntary, if you have concerns about having the symbol on your license then the simple answer is not to tell DVLA that you are a Veteran? Secondly, you use the example of a wallet being stolen then anyone who would ‘do you harm’ knows where you live. I carry a driving license with my address on it, plus a Defence Discount Service card which identifies me as a former Serviceman, so the loss of your wallet and subsequent potential security risk is (for me) a bit of a non-argument.
