The military veteran is claimed by all sides. Conservatives, liberals and socialists all want to speak about and for ex-servicemen, yet far-right demonstrations are dotted with berets and medals and ex-military men have become celebrities of the reactionary manosphere. So who are Britain's ex-servicemen? What do they want? What are their politics? What are the issues which animate them? Are they just irredeemable fascists by dint of their service to Empire? Or is there a radical political potential waiting to be unlocked?
Former soldier Joe
Glenton takes us on a guided tour through ex-forces life at the heart of
a dead empire as he attempts to demystify military culture, rescue the
veteran from his captors, and discover if a more optimistic, humanist
mode of veteranhood can be recovered from the ruins.
