Will is 15 years old, and must join the military, but will doesn’t want to join the military as he doesn’t agree with violence and so does his mother. But his dad wants him to go, but will still refuses to go. The archduke has been assassinated and now Europe faces war, will lives in Australia and the government has a law that all 15 year olds and over must do military training or face court and suffer the consequences, for example, will went to court and got convicted and was sent to fort queenscliff where he will be forced to do military work, but he was not the only one who was going, his friend Ned was in for it as well.
