When this particular war is declared illegal and Blair and his people face charges, I reckon this young man will win his future appeal and be handsomely compensated!!
Training Risky..
Let us not forget that this gentleman, like all the unfortunates called up, is a civilian albeit on temporary military service. Also Blair has stated that any one refusing military call out will NOT be jailed.
I for one will refuse any such call out in the future unless the homeland faces a direct threat from Armed Forces. I did my 28 years of blood sweat and tears and if I am forced to turn up I could create serious mayhem on the frontline!!

No it was not made clear to him and this came out at appeal. From now on the MOD must make clear the grounds upon which you can object to military call up and the procedures involved.
