  1. Very nice picture of an army caning in progress. Do they have rules about how many strokes? At least they have not made him take his trousers off.

    1. If you read beneath the photo it says up to 15. But l agree about the picture. I wish l could have seen it happening. What is the victim leaning over? He has a lovely bottom!
