Richard, a British historian during World War I? Where is it? Emden has done a lot of research for this documentary. He revealed that Britain announced its participation in the First World War on August 19 14, 2004. Less than two months later, the British military recruited 750,000 soldiers who volunteered to take part in the war and bloodbath the European battlefield. This includes 250,000 boys who are only in their teens, below the legal service age of 18, and the youngest is only 14.
According to Withers, a survivor who fought in the war that year, he was only 17 years old, but at the instigation of the government, he joined the army without telling his parents that he lied about his information in the recruitment office alone, and the recruiter did not ask or verify it. Withers said: "At that time, many boys who were only about 15 lied that they were 19 or 20 years old."
It is reported that during the First World War, in order to stabilize the morale of the army and force soldiers to fight bloody battles with German soldiers to the end, the British Army High Command strengthened the law enforcement of the firing squad, and all soldiers sentenced to death by military courts for desertion were quickly executed by the firing squad. The boy scouts who deserted as deserters on the battlefield will also be executed by the firing squad.
East London boy Abraham? Bevis Tyne is the one who suffered this misfortune. 1965438+September 2004, 16 years old, was drafted into the army. 1965438+In February 2005, Bevis Tyne was shot in the back in a battle in Givenchy and was taken to hospital for treatment. When he was about to return to the front, a Grenade exploded not far from him, and Bevis Tyne, who was frightened, didn't want to go back to the battlefield. He refused to obey the orders of police officers and was executed on March 20, 2006 1965438.
The British Boy Scouts also told the story of Arthur, a member of the Liberal Party. The touching story of Markhan running for these young children. Worried about the children's safety, he angrily accused the British government of deceiving these children into joining the army. He has been running, appealing and petitioning, expecting the military to order the withdrawal of these boy scouts. But because the British government at that time did not pay attention to this problem, all his efforts were in vain.
Is it true?/You don't say. If not, why did the British side allow the documentary "The Boy Scouts of England" to appear 90 years later? People keep asking questions.
