And just like that, 12 years, 2 medals, a whole bunch of memories and wonderful friends later; I’m done. Policing you were my childhood dream. I’m so proud to have been one of you and do my small bit. You’ll always be part of me, but time to live and move on. #ThinBlueLine 🚨

Please keep my name away mate as I’m still serving. My name is a fake name but some people know of my fake name on here. Following the brave comments from others I want to highlight what happened to me. I (male) joined 2 Mercian in 2011 (17 years old), as an ‘initiation’ ceremony I was made to drink and party with the guys. I had no issue with this, however as the unit just got back from Afghan I was beaten almost daily for only being the new guy. However going back to ‘the night’ I was very drunk and members of C company 2 Mercian took it upon themselves to force objects and parts of their own body into me, on frequent occasions I was visited where sometimes I would climb out of my window and sleep in the bushes outside. I won’t go too heavy into it as it’s still something I am trying to come to terms with. I reported everything after another new soldier under 18 come to me asking for help. We both went to the chain of command and I ended up getting the sugar kicked out of me daily for ‘going against the unit’. I went to the RMP however everything got brushed aside and I was told that if I wasn’t drunk it wouldn’t have happened. I have been in some serious dark places since because of this. I have never been able to sleep right because of the fear of my door getting booted in at stupid hours by drunk men. The 7 guys that did this got away with everything and I never even got so much of a sorry. The other soldier it happened to ended up killing himself in 2013. The Mercian regiment didn’t even acknowledge his funeral. I ask that anyone else who suffered anything close to this was to come forward. Alfie, thank you for support us all.
