I do believe that servicemen should sign up separately for international
conflicts i.e. be a member of a UN force, rather than at the behest of the

Having said that, like so much of modern advertising, I do accept that advert
that concentrate on a career and travel, should be banned.

It's also true that the British people in general have been extremely fortunate
to have live during the few preceding decades.
