Seems like a fair idea aimed at furthering public awareness of the UK military.

Its pretty much that, its seems a little tacky, and I don't really understand the point of it. Yes I do see how it could raise awarness however, a) do we not already have a way of rewarding meritorious service and b) there are surely better ways of raising awarness than a national vote.

Surely those who vote will already have an understading of the forces anyway.
