Bullying in the army

Share this page

Fiona Crack | 20:54 UK time, Thursday, 6 July 2006

Is bullying as a form of discipline a 'normal' part of army life or is it unacceptable punishment?

There are recent cases of severe punishment, resulting in injury or death, from several countries and we want to know what you think. Have you served in the army? Is bullying part of what toughens up recruits and makes them better soldiers or just an outdated and dangerous practise.

Join our to tell us your opinion - remembering to add your number if you'd like to be a caller on the show - and World Have Your Say are hoping to host the discussion on Tuesday.
