    HERE WE GO AGAIN, THIS TIME A UNIT!!! WHY DO YOU NEED A UNIT IF REQUESTING FAMILY AND OTHERS TO REPORT WITH INFORMATION? WASTE OF TAXPAYERS MONEY. THESE ARE NOT CHILDREN GOING TO FIGHT IN WARS, THEY ARE ADULTS AND ARE CAPABLE OF MAKING DECISIONS!! S FOR GOING OVERSEAS TO FIGHT IN ANY WARS IS STUPIDITY AT ITS BEST.

    Being the Defence secretary, this selfish man did not look after those who retired and injured in the war. He should also be held responsible for paving brave soldiers to hell.
