"British Army in gay recruitment drive as soldier numbers fall"
rt.com
"Homosexuality in the British Army is being addressed in a £1.6 million ($2.1 million) advertising campaign as the top brass desperately try to revamp the image of the military.
The army has been plunged into a recruitment crisis while battling government funding cuts, which could see troop numbers plunge below 82,000. Now, millions of pounds are being spent in a bid to reach out to gay communities across Britain, who may not be joining the armed forces due to fears of stigma or rejection.
Muslim communities are also being targeted in the army’s 'belonging campaign' videos, which ask: 'What if I get emotional?' 'Can I be gay in the army?' and 'Do I have to be a superhero?'.
In one video, a gay man claims he was happy to open up about being in a homosexual relationship despite fears that he would be treated badly. He describes how he wanted to be a medic after his brother served in Afghanistan.
'I was really worried about whether I’d be accepted,'he says in the 40-second clip.
'But within days, I was more than confident about being who I was. I am not afraid to talk about having a boyfriend. I thought I would have to hide it but once you’ve done it, I thought ‘Why did I make it such a big thing for so long.’”
