ADF recruitment drops over lack of 'national pride’

Sky News host Caleb Bond says people aren’t signing up for the ADF because they “don’t have national pride” like they used to. The ADF is set to lower fitness and health standards in order to boost recruitment. Mr Bond said the ADF must “encourage people” to want to defend the country. “That is the major problem. “During World War’s one and two … the boys wanted to go, they wanted to fight for their country.”
