This week, if you follow Brit news....the hype of Russian invasion came up. So the British government in some way....leaked a report that they don't have enough troops and the only way to 'save' Britain in this 'darkest-hour'....would be a massive conscription effort....bringing in all Brit males from ages 18 to age 60.
I sat and pondered over this BS story.
From my various trips to the UK....if you asked me over the health of Brit guys from age 40 to 60....I'd say that about 50-percent are hard drinking alcoholics, and probably three-quarters of the whole crowd are not in any condition to handle normal boot-camp.
If this were to go forward? They'd use the Russian method of ten days of boot-camp....issue a uniform or two....then advance the new troops to the front. Boot-camp (Russian style) would mostly be a couple days of weapon practice, how to march, and some survival tips.
This being BS? I'd probably see the chatter and talk of a Russian invasion as being a joke.
Day one of the invasion would end with key invasion force of 10,000 Russians mostly still alive, but having found an abundance of booze....they'd mostly be drunk for the next seven days.
As the booze finally ran out....the war would shift....probably ending by day ten....while 500,000 British men were still in boot-camp. Someone would write medal nominations for everyone, with the King handing out a thousand medals a day and shaking hands with everyone who participated.
