剧情介绍
The documentary follows one group of young men as they leave friends, families and lives behind to become Britain's next generation of infantry soldiers.
Following them from the first day of basic training at Catterick to the start of their first tour of duty in Afghanistan, Young Soldiers takes an unprecedented look at what life is really like for one group of boys as they journey to become Army men.
The first episode starts with the boys' first day as new recruits. Ashley (19), Lee (19), Darren (22) and Andrew (26) are just a few of the young men who pass through the Infantry Training Centre at Catterick each year. Here, they train to become some of the best infantry soldiers in the world. But before they can learn about guns and grenades, it is 5am starts, ironing creases into trousers and the secrets of good hygiene.
The trainee soldiers are drilled on everything from personal fitness to keeping their lockers tidy and some are finding it tougher than others. Those who survive the first five weeks of intensive preparation will be rewarded with the first milestone in their army careers, the presentation of their regimental berets.
The families of these new recruits are also adjusting to a new regime as they struggle with the decision their sons have made to join the Army at a time of conflict and their inevitable deployment to Afghanistan.
Young Soldiers follows four men as they take their first steps into one of the toughest jobs in the world: life as a British soldier.
The first two episodes cover basic training, episode three follows two infantrymen to A Coy 1 RIFLES and PDT with episode 4 concentrating on operations, again with A Coy.
A fifth episode, focusing on A Coy’s Homecoming and Medals Parade, will follow in November/December this year.

細膩與簡潔的極致綜合體,禁得起無數次反覆觀看的英倫經典。 (導演有滲透人心的說故事能力,若去拍劇情片都會是種美妙的浪費)

王狗熊不想说
讲英国青少年军训的,叠被子跑步什么都泛善可陈,本纪录片亮点在于体验直面死亡,在遵守命令射杀平民和坚守道义之间做出选择。东亚国家每年一度耗费大量时间和资源对少年进行军训,简直类似纳粹败亡前抓少年兵上战场,以及各种公司单位组织的团建拓展,跟一群二逼似的。这片大陆专业的非专业的military每天意淫在行侠仗义拯民于水火之中,时刻准备干和他们脑海里蒙古、满族军事力量的恐怖传说一样的事情。虽然嗜血、残杀同类是人类本性,这个美英都无法掩盖其污点,但是这个体验观察式的少年成长纪录片还真是良心作品。
