I haven’t heard of any such exemptions, but I guess it will be really tested only if we have to go to war. It has been almost 80 years since the last time.
I think it’s interesting that Prince Harry was allowed to serve on the front lines in Afghanistan. Granted, he was a volunteer and not a conscript, but the fact that the queen even allowed it was surprising. When I heard he was joining up, I expected that he would be in some cushy back office, away from the fighting.
No, because in all times the elites don’t have to fight, while the plebs must die for [insert abstract concept].
In Finland, (male) children of the elite serve in the conacription army just like everyone else. But of course if that doesn’t apply, it’s not great.
