11/8/2017: King Abdullah II represented Queen Elizabeth II and was the Reviewing Officer at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst’s Sovereign's Parade. The Parade, attended by Queen Rania, marked the graduation of commissioned officers, including Crown Prince Hussein. Commandant Maj. Gen. Paul Nanson received King Abdullah and Queen Rania at Sandhurst, where Their Majesties signed the guestbook. His Majesty, escorted by the guard of honour, proceeded to the dais, and Jordan’s national anthem was played. The King, accompanied by the commandant, then inspected the Parade. The ceremony featured the presenting of the Sovereign’s Banner to the Sovereign’s Platoon, the best performing platoon among the Senior Division. It also included slow time and quick time marches to tunes from Jordanian, British, and international musical repertoire. A pipe and drum band representing the Jordan Armed Forces-Arab Army participated in the Parade, playing musical pieces and marches from Jordanian and British military heritage, which marked the first time a non-British military music band participates in the ceremony. (Source: Petra) After the Parade concluded, His Majesty delivered remarks to the Senior Division and the Intermediate and Junior Divisions.

"It is not the first time I have had the privilege to attend the Sovereign’s Parade. Many years ago, I was a cadet standing where you are now," the King said.

"The memories of that day have stayed with me, making it a distinct pleasure to address today’s cadets and Academy staff; their families and friends; and the distinguished guests who joined us," added His Majesty, who graduated from the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst in 1980. Addressing the graduates as fellow officers, the King said: "You and your soldiers will have unprecedented resources to hand. Over the course of your careers, technology will advance relentlessly. But remember this first: Nothing, nothing, will substitute for the quality of your command." "In the years ahead, your soldiers will look to you for guidance and inspiration. They will want to know that you care for them and for their families. They will model their behaviour on your integrity. They will get their courage from your steadfastness. And these attributes are not reserved for the military, but are equally applicable in public service and business. "These are huge, and, at times, daunting responsibilities. You must strive to be the best. Understand you will not be alone; your friends in your platoon and companies will be lifelong, because you have learned that working for each other is the way to succeed," His Majesty told the graduates. "Some of your most important friendships, forged in the mud and rain of Brecon, will be those with cadets from different countries, different cultures, and religions. Indeed, the enduring bonds that began here can help all of you lead the global understanding that a secure and peaceful future requires," the King added. His Majesty also reminded the officers that: "It is just as important to remember the many who helped when things were toughest friends and family who cheered you on, from the day you arrived here, with your ironing boards. On behalf of Her Majesty, I thank them most sincerely. And I know how important they will be to you, as you go out into this hugely exciting, challenging, and, at times, dangerous career." The King then urged the officers to "always act in a way you can be proud of." "Not every day will be a good one. You may not win every battle. But, however many times you get knocked down in life, you can, and must, get up again. In this profession of arms, you are now where the buck stops. You are graduating, because people believed in you. You must now believe in yourself and rise to the challenges ahead," His Majesty said. Concluding his remarks, the King told the young officers: "However difficult, do what is right. Be confident in what your instructors have taught you. Take strength from your family and faith. And, above all, my fellow officers, never stop Serving to Lead." During the ceremony, the King awarded medals to distinguished cadets and a number of instructors and Academy staff. His Majesty also awarded the Sandhurst Al Hussein Medal to the officer cadet who showed the most significant improvement in performance during the training. The medal is awarded to non-British cadets. The medal is named after His Majesty the late King Hussein, who graduated from Sandhurst in 1953. At the conclusion of the ceremony, the King received the Sandhurst Medal from the Academy’s commandant, and presented the Great Arab Revolt Centennial Medal to the RMA. Their Majesties also attended a lunch banquet held by the Academy in celebration of the graduates and their parents. Their Royal Highnesses Princess Muna Al Hussein, Prince Hashem bin Abdullah II, Princess Iman bint Abdullah II, and Princess Salma bint Abdullah II attended the Parade. Sandhurst is one of the world’s most prestigious military academies, with some of its departments dating back to over 250 years. It is also the only academy that graduates British Army officers. Cadets from other countries also enrol at the Academy. The British Sovereign, Queen Elizabeth II, graduates the officers, or invites the leaders of countries with close ties to the United Kingdom to represent her at the Parade. His Majesty has previously represented Queen Elizabeth II at a 2006 Sovereign’s Parade, and His Majesty the late King Hussein represented Queen Elizabeth II in 1980, where King Abdullah was among the graduating officers. A number of royal family members have also graduated from Sandhurst.

British Army Targets “Snowflakes”, “Phone Zombies”, and “Binge Gamers” in New Recruitment Campaign

In a bid to get more recruits for the British Army, Army Jobs has launched a new campaign which targets “binge gamers”, “snowflakes”, “selfie addicts” and more. This campaign reminds me of the US army last year when they created their own esports team to encourage people to sign-up.

The campaign which is being run by Karmarama has pushed billboards and adverts focusing on stereotypes usually given to 16 to 25-year-olds. The posters are designed to imitate the World War I Lord Kitchener poster and call out stereotyped people such as “Snowflakes”, “Class Clowns”, and even “Binge Gamers”. You can find an example of the posters in a gallery below that were gathered via Little Black Book. The campaign targets 16 to 25-year-olds who are also known as “Generation Z”. This generation was born roughly between 1995-2015.

The campaign also launched with three new videos looking at three of these stereotypes. The videos seem to be trying to indicate that “Me, me, me, millennials” have the confidence, “Snowflakes” have the compassion, and the “Binge gamers” have the stamina and dedication that the Army look for.

Your Army Needs You, and Your Spirit

Your Army Needs You, and Your Resilience

Your Army Needs You, and Your Stamina

You can watch the Stamina video below which features a male gamer awake at night playing games on a PS4. The video cuts between shots of the gamer at home and also on location at wherever it is he’s deployed. The description of the video reads. “The Army spots potential. Even if others don’t. Your Army needs you.”

The Guardian quotes British Army Maj Gen Paul Nanson, the snippet from their website says,

“The army designed the campaign to show that it looks beyond stereotypes and “sees people differently”, and recognises their “need for a bigger sense of purpose”.

Also in The Guardian, the defense secretary Gavin Williamson said the campaign is,

“A powerful call to action that appeals to those seeking to make a difference as part of an innovative and inclusive team”

You can find the British Army posters below and the trailer that has a focus on gaming is down there too. The other two videos are available above.
