A 19-year-old Army cadet was raped by an instructor at Longmoor Training Camp after she had been drinking in the sergeants' mess, a court was told on Monday.

Stuart Bridge (43) allegedly took the girl past the entrance to her block and round the back of the building before carrying out the assault. Bridge denies the charge.
