British Army soldiers have been reprimanded for lampooning the low morale among troops amid warnings from the top brass that they would likely be wiped out if a major war broke out.
A British Army Major was “summoned for a telling off” after it was revealed that he created a satirical song reflecting on the official position of senior officers that, should a big war come, they in the “first echelon” would have to be quickly replaced with new recruits if the country had a hope of winning the conflict.
Cracking little tune, the army needs to get a sense of humour. Surely being a captain must be depressing enough without a little light relief? https://t.co/Bir5yom1Vi pic.twitter.com/FFnrdmxnh6
