  • And don't forget USA now waving the rules for convicted felons to join the armed forces. Plus, of course, 40% of the US military force in Afghanistan is now made-up of mercenaries who aren't subject to any military rules at all.

  • This is no big suprise, for some time now Russia has been filling its's military ranks with students who don't want any part of the Russian military and people unfit for duty (drunks, handicap, etc.). Russia has a huge problem, when you have to draft people to serve because the Russian military is so horrible. Also, a big issue is Russia's rapidly declining population, what stable western country depends on militias? This is bad news for the Russian military.

  • Boys life is CHEAP. Boys lives are CHEAP. Your testosterone makes you a slave to your country.

    Boys are used in the Army like cheap dogs. Their testosterone makes them easy to brainwash.

    Girls life is more precious, can be pretty, can do girly things without looking gay, and don't have to die for country.

    Boys useless, only know how to fight. That's why boy only good for army used like stupid dogs. Girls good for college and smart career.

    I feel shame to be boy. Help me Mother Russia!

  • Russian military is fading fast

  • China's military is a filthy, untrained, unequipped, primitive group of dogs. Russians can kill several dozen million Chinese soldiers before they can even cross the border XD. That's if the Chinese can afford an army that large, which they cannot.

  • stop drinking vodka and you'll have more healthy men :DD

  • yeah, russias military is falling apart, not enough money to attract people or buy weapons. china ot the other hand is getting stronger and stronger, bye bye Siberia

  • RussianDefender - Every western modern country with a modern army has a physical entrance exam. The issue is that 1 in 3 Russian men of age to serve are not fit for duty, they have many health complications due to the break down in Russian health services mainly in the 90's but als today.

    Also, you don't have enough healthy men of age to serve due to your declining population this is not good news with all of the territory Russia has to keep under control : )

  • LOl, we have physical tests before you

    go to the drafts you imbicile and dont use handiccaped unlike your country btw, I'm not even of legal age moron

    but I know more that enough for the preparation fool, dont worry you will see me

    when I will be ready to draft

    to cut the heads of Yanks :))

    how about you ? LOL I guess another Fat

    uneducated yank who is too unfit to serve

    ENJOY :))

  • 1 in 3 Russian men of recruitment age to join the Russian military is fit to serve this is a fact. This means most are not fit for duty, RussianDefender you are probably on of the one out of three, lol.. The fact is Russia has a problem, you don't have enough men of age that are fit for duty. Your population is in decline so you draft college kids and handicap people, you have no one to blame but yourselfs.

  • No moron it means we're training men

    how to fight at a young age, unlike your country

    LOL, you have to entice fools with so called benefits and what to you get ? fat recruits

    who barely have any trainings in their life and

    has proven to be incompetent in the battlefield your failing wars in Afghanistan, Pakistan

    Btw, most of new Yank recruits are immigrants

    and have dual citizenship, you can count

    they will not be loyal to United Shits 100%

    ENJOY :D
