      @@Mike-1000 absolutely. I would have loved to have gone in myself but couldn't because of my health circumstances. I just don't think they get enough support after all the trauma they live through and see. The fact vets are living on the streets is dispicable after putting their lives on line for our country. After working for the MOD myself I saw all waste thrown away because of false wars. I made all chemical warfare suits, goretex suits, FBI suits, body bags etc. Majority got chucked away. Our government is corrupt and have no care for our soldier's... they are disposable and forgotten as in schools are not educating kids on the history of WW1, WW2 and others like Falklands etc. Sad affairs as we are already in a culture/spiritual war through invasion. Which he did not mention which is very real. We have no idea eho is in our country walking our streets all by design.

    Phil has really said pretty much what I have realised and so true, all young lads need is to know where they stand and some feeling of belonging , security a future and some love if possible from the right sort of person and in the right way, and it’s always the so called naughty boys who fit in to that role the army offers,… a family, it’s all too telling that the care system and foster family are like a magnet for groomers and abusers sexually and physically, the worst thing was seeing and realising that some who were abused sexually and physically, then started acting up with their peers and probably ended up becoming abusers themselves, I knew that it went up to the highest level during the early 80’s and looking back you know with hindsight and some research that certain people where being sponsored by big business for studies and suchlike, a whole industry surrounded the care system and still does, unfortunately I had a live hate relationship with one veteran who served in places like the Falklands war and Ireland, to this day it goes on to what level I don’t really know, but things like adhd autism and high functioning autism Asperger’s, are fascinating to some of the research that still goes on , when huge amounts are being paid in so many different ways, either experts staff, expensive trips and equipment, surrounding the various studies ect, and military are often part of it

    I cannot praise people like Mr. Campion enough and will readily acknowledge that I am only a quarter of a man in comparison to his like. However, given the current state of our country, which is akin to a "nation under siege", a time may arrive when the people of this land will have to disagree ( to put it mildly) with its government. In such circumstances, we can expect our government to use people such as Phil, to quell any insurrection. This is what worries me. How the hell does the man in the street face up to such people? The fact is, he cannot. Would such men turn on their own people when ordered too? I think they would and I find that frightening.
