Kids with Guns: UK's Army Cadet Force (Full Length)

Duration: 42:40
Updated: 16 Jan 2015

In a new episode of Rule Britannia, VICE joins the UK's Army Cadet Force and asks what the youth club can give British kids who may not have a lot else. The Army Cadet Force has over 46,000 cadets from the ages of 12 to 18, training in 1,700 detachments all over the country. The super low-cost club evenings and training camps equip teenagers with discipline and skills in everything from orienteering and military knowledge to weaponry, first aid, and sports. Smartly uniformed and proudly representing Queen and Country, the young cadets are taught to embody British values. The theory that cadet activities could keep youth on the right track has seen huge government funding allocated to expand the cadets by next year.

Watch Full Drama Movies: http://bit.ly/1x6wFnv Watch Full Action movies: http://bit.ly/1wwZFpe Gulliver and Tate happen to be young recruits of the British Army who are serving the peace mission in Iraq. In the wake of the war, it is tough to maintain peace inside the country. The platoon loses hope when the company captain, Godber, dies in a bomb explosion while on a patrol. Things go for a spiral at the camp as the platoon starts looking for possible suspects. A lot of rules are broken that night. As the platoon returns to England, soldiers go around with different versions of the war. Gulliver, however, lands in trouble as Shelley, his betrayed girlfriend, exposes some war photos to the British Police. Gulliver and Tate are brought to court martial as the two undergo trauma of whether to choose truth or not.
