Has anyone hear ever served?

[??????????]

I wanted to, but now I am inelligible. I almost quit work that very day on 9/11 and joined. I know quite a few who did.

No. In Sweden it's compulsory with seven or nine months of military training after high school, but I sort of avoided the draft. Told the psychologist I couldn't sleep in the same room as other people etc. I had better things to do.

That's sad really.

That is your view and it is fair enough, if I lived in Sweden however I would certainly serve, I can't see why you wouldn't. Sweden hasn't had a war since the 19th century, early 19th century at that.

I must say I agree with StatesRights, it is rather sad that you have better things to do than serve your country like everyone else your age.

Yep. But most Swedish liberals and conservatives aren't very fond of their country, sadly.

And most don't serve anymore, since they don't need a lot of people. But I intend to do it.

Gustaf, I commend you and wish you luck when you do go. The military teaches good morals and principles to live by. Well, except those soldiers at that prison.

All those Swedes look alike, are related, and know one another

Like folks from Tennessee and WVA and southern Ohio, huh?
