As the Armed Forces struggle to recruit and retain the people and skills they need, a major review is recommending a radical rethink of British military life and careers.

The Haythornethwaite review found the forces need to do better at making their people feel valued.

It was commissioned by the Defence Secretary to study ‘incentivisation’ for servicemen and women.

Sitrep talks to the review’s military adviser, retired Lieutenant General Sir Nick Pope, to ask whether flexible working can work for the forces, why the internet really matters to people, and whether pay should be based on skills rather than rank.
