Beck, who joined the army at 16, had no diagnosed mental health conditions, according to the report. Britain is one of 19 countries that recruit 16-year-olds into the army.

Fucking sick and tired of organisations that just don’t give a fuck about people that work in them.

Too many assholes in positions of power that are protected for no good reason.
