@@diegocortez270 exactly. Typical dummy question. And the mistreatment of our vets here in the US has been happening way before Biden or Trump. If Trump was so good why didn’t he do something about it by executive order instead of trying to bash Biden? One thing I can’t stand more is someone who supports trump and doesn’t even know why he’s benefiting them other than what fox of OAN tells them. Then they yell tax cuts thinking that free money. Like we still have to pay that back. The sooner the better. Trump was just kicking the can down the line and it failed. So cry harder trump supporters. My jacuzzi ain’t filled yet

Everyone lacks confidence in one way or another. Even in personal and professional goals that often requires motivation for them to continue. Even if they don't say it, they show it, especially when addressed upon it.

This may be true, but it is beside the point. Sky news is here to shed light and make insightful comments on our society. They need to be explicit with their findings, and in order to do that they need to analyse them. Simply accepting what people say on interview without considering why/ how likely they are to admit something (in this case a lack of self - confidence) isn’t very helpful. To truly find out whether today’s generation lack a level of self confidence possessed by preceding generations, they have to do more research and analysis to come to a quality conclusion. This isn’t to say that everyone doesn’t lack confidence at some point or at some time in their life. It is commentary on whether today’s society lacks a level of confidence which can’t be acquired by quick fixes and instant gratification. A level of confidence that is diminishing in our society, which the Army try to address in their new Recruiting Adverts.

Nodel Oliver how r they, they get paid and how r they loosing homes and fam

I know this is the British Army, but here in the US I have a college degree and am a home owner purely because of my service. I'd never be able to afford the education otherwise

Many of those vets tend to make poor decisions with their money, never used the education benefits, and have substance abuse problems. Make smart moves and it can be a huge jumping off platform.

Nodel Oliver the pay isn’t even that bad in fact for a youngster it’s pretty good

Most homeless vets tend to have their money stolen from a wife that left them when they joined and such. Whilst some is unlucky the fact that some are for instance disabled and therefore their family doesn't want them is ID say a huge cause

Amen

Idk how homeless vets happen honestly..like im joining up and i plan to save my money af

This is true I'm really having a hard time on chosing if I should join the Marine I want to join but it's just hard for me to choose

And if I get drafted before i make a decision I will be willing go

If the war even happens

No one is needed to fight by the British people. Greedy politicians need people to fight. If there was a threat to the security of Britain, every able bodied man and woman would take up arms and fight. Which is why millions fought in the Great Wars of the 20th century. Germany was taking the piss both times and the British resolve won both times.
