Blimey!

And I thought our distressed, disenfranchised & perennially troubled youts got that way from slavery, repression, white man’s greed and an absence of reparations!

How come this??

Those are "elite" soldiers? With the expressions on their faces indicating a moronic IQ level? Vacant, sullen-for all the world like the mug shots of any gangbanger-those are the "elite"?!

I'm a soldier in the Queen's Army. I'm a galloping Queen's Hussar. I've sailed the ocean wide and blue. I'm a chap who knows a thing or two. Been in many a tight corner. Shown the enemy who we are. I can ride a horse. Go on a spree, or sing a comic song. And that denotes a Queen's Hussar.

They'll be needing a new verse to the Regimental Song, I suspect. Winston Churchill was commissioned into the 4th Hussars, one of the antecedent regiments of the QHR in 1895.
