<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> I'm a bit ticked off at the whole 8 year old boys fighting. PJ you do realise the term "strong lad able to bear arms" means 16 years at the youngest. I know that this is to show how desperate the situation is but come on. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>Actually, it is known in history (and maybe even in some countries today, though I wouldn't know) that boys as young as twelve or thirteen have taken part in battles. I know those boys in the movie looked young, but I don't think any of them were supposed to be any younger than age twelve.
