My other idea, a sort of anti-army campaign, there isn't a lot of examples as no ones done any. There are lots of adverts for joining the army, but there should at least be an age limit before fighting in wars. An 18 year old managed to go to Afghanistan, to fight. You can join the army from 16. Thats not really a lot of time to train, and the army appeals to these young people who havn't got anything going for them, they havn't done well in school, don't have a skill to develop a job, any ambitions. Some want to go as they see war as exciting, or their relatives have been in wars. They get offered a wage, benefits, healthcare, and training to kill people. I say leave it to the trained grownups with the necessary experience, rather than young people who havn't had much of a life yet. Here is a link to the bbc site, the number of soldiers that died in afghanistan, starting from as young as 18. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-10629358
My aim if I choose this idea is to put these young people off from joining, with use of shock images and showing what can happen, if your not ready.
