A former training instructor at Deepcut Army barracks in Surrey has been jailed for four-and-a-half years for five sex attacks on young male soldiers.
Leslie Skinner, 46, of Gainsborough, Lincolnshire, pleaded guilty at Kingston Crown Court last month.
Skinner, who served with the Royal Logistics Corp, admitted five indecent assaults between 1992 and 1997 on four male soldiers.
Skinner's victims were aged between 17 and 21.
'Vulnerable young men'
Before the jurors were discharged, prosecutor Sally Howes, QC told them Skinner had "taken advantage of vulnerable young men".
Skinner, who is no longer in the Army, was a lance corporal and training instructor when he served at Deepcut with the Royal Logistics Corp.
He was sent to Deepcut after being convicted by a court martial for indecently exposing himself in a car park in Lisburn, Northern Ireland.
