Trainee Officer at Sandhurst kills herself

“The British Army failed a “vulnerable” officer cadet who killed herself after months of self harm, a damning report has found.

A Service Inquiry into the suicide of Olivia Perks revealed she was subject to a “complete breakdown in welfare support” while studying as an Officer Cadet at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst.”

I’m sorry for the loss of life of this young lady. But what the Heck was she doing at officer’s training at Sandhurst? If she could fall apart under training how could she possible cope when commanding a group of soldiers under fire?

Sorry but she should have been failed out of the Academy. Totally not officer material.
