Military Life Portrayed Through The Medium Of Dance

An interpretation of military life through dance is about to tour the country for a second time. 
 
"5 SOLDIERS: The Body is the Frontline" has the endorsement of a retired general whose son was wounded in Afghanistan, and is supported by ABF The Soldiers' Charity. 
 
The performers will hold discussion sessions in the military communities they tour, and they've enlisted an ex-squaddie to drill them to precision. 
 
Julie Knox went to see them rehearse in Birmingham.
