How to condition ,indoctrinate and brainwash. Lesson one : Start early :-
A range of Action Man-style figurines are being sold by the Ministry of Defence to children . It has signed a deal with toy company Character Group to create a new range of military figures based on the Navy, Army and RAF. These will be sold under the "HM Armed Forces" brand, with weapons currently in use in Iraq and Afghanistan.The MoD says it hopes the figures will boost the profile of Britain's serving forces. Money raised from the sale of the toys will be reinvested in other public relations exercises to showcase the armed forces.
"It's an ideal opportunity to raise public awareness of the armed forces and what the personnel do day-by-day," says Squadron leader Stuart Balfour. "We feel by children playing with these toys, it promotes things like discipline, sense of belonging to a wider organisation and team work."
