The amendment will extend the liability for military service by 15 years for the rank and file and by five years for officers and non-commissioned officers. Now the upper age limit for reserve service is 50 for enlisted ranks and 60 for officers and non-commissioned officers.
In five years, Finland’s reserve force will number roughly one million.
That’s a lot for a 5.6 million pop.
Considering the eastern neighbour, we don’t really have much choice on the matter
Crazy how the rank and file have longer terms. 3x longer
