Army from 18 to 28 (this is the age), but since there is no one with whom they do not fight, the soldiers build roads, dig channels, dig fields.

Especially for those who are scared of 10 years of service.
In the USSR, some believed that it was good to serve so much.
My grandfather served from 43 to 52. Fought for two years. In the year 46 no one was released from the service (no one was called, everyone who could have already been in the army), remained on overtime, in the year 49 they were released home, came to the village - and there hunger. He said goodbye to everyone and immediately left for the second overtime.
