Lord Kitchener's programme to avoid conscription in World War I was called the Kitchener Volunteer Scheme. This scheme aimed to recruit volunteers for the British Army, relying on patriotism and individuals willingly enlisting rather than being forced into military service through conscription.
The posters encouraging people to enlist in World War I were commonly referred to as "recruitment posters." One of the most iconic examples is the British "Lord Kitchener Wants You" poster, featuring a stern-faced Lord Kitchener pointing directly at the viewer. These posters aimed to evoke a sense of duty, patriotism, and urgency, urging men to join the military and support the war effort. They often used bold imagery and persuasive language to inspire enlistment.
Field Marshal Kitchener, Lord Herbert Kitchener, Kitchener of Kharrtoum, Chief of the Imperial General Staff. He had been in the Army forever, and died during the war, when the Navy ship he was traveling on apparently hit a mine and sank, with no survivors. His body was never recovered. Its said he was a hopeless pederast, completely addicted to young boys and men. When he visited in large manor homes, the wise young man had his servant sleep in front of the bedroom door, to block access to Sir Herbert. For all that (which was almost unknown while he was alive) he was regarded as a legendary military hero, though his career had many less than stellar chapters.
