Hello everyone. I am 19 years old now. About 4 years ago back in Russia i was in grade 8 as far as i remember and the all the boys from my class had to go to recruitment center because you have to get a passport but most importantly you HAVE to go in the army. If you don't have a passport you are considered homeless and you will be but in jail once you are 18 and finished high school.
Let me tell you how and how long the recruiting process took us. There was a guy in front of us all and there were about 9 rooms and recruiting people. Well the crowd was moving so fast that it took only 2 hours for 30 people to get through all the rooms. Then i got in the first room. I walked in and there was a woman who measured my height and weight. OK next room. Now there was a man who didn't even notice me when i walked in and was writting something on a paper. I sat down after 2 minutes but then he screamed "Did i tell you to sit down???" I said no but i saw a chair so why not sit down in it? He became as red as a the stripes on Canadian flag. He went somewhere and about 5 minutes after that a few soldiers walked in with the guy and one of them hit me in a chest with his AK-47. I got got in less then one second. Soldier said "This is what's waiting for you in the army you fucker". I don't know how much i was lying on a floor but i thought i was dying. When i stood up i the guy told me to sign a paper and told me to move on. In a next room there was a woman and i thought OK i can sit down now. So when i sat the woman screamed "Stand up" and i stood because i didn't want to get hit by one of those ak's anymore. She took my vision and hearing in less them one minute. OK i probably went in too much details about the whole thing but the important part is that with all my illnesses such as ulcer, asthma, bronchite and 9 more that i didn't memorise they said "OK kid your good to server the Russian army". I mean people like me should be home on a strict diet and care. Well after 2 years the army was expecting me. But my family left in Canada a year after that and the army was far behind.
I didn't wanted to think or even to know what might have being and what would happen with me in their freaking army but let me tell you a couple of things. You have to go in the army unless you are dead. If you don't go in the army you go in jail, but the Russian army and jail are almost the same things. Remember the soldier i was talking about. Some time ago i saw a documentary on History television about Russian army. A new soldier comes in and says hello to everyone and introduces himself. Then the last thing happened to him was a knife that went in his throat. He didn't die instantly but slowly. This happens when there is an excess of soldiers per one house. Those soldiers who were in army for 2 years are called Grandpas and those who are new called Spirits. So if you are a spirit you better be in a best shape and know how to fight because they beat up spirits everyday. Once you are a grandpa you get to beat up spirits and they can't do anything because 2 years of fighting everyday will get you fists of still.
Now I'm here in Canada very pissed because i see how much effort you have to put to join the Canadian forces like interview, aptitude test, medical test, physical test. Forget about that in Russia, you can be a retard, a worm that can barely walk but you have otherwise you go in jail where you don't see sumlight for 5 years compared to 2 years in army. So guys this is about it and don't throw a lot of comments on my spelling because I'm still learning the language and i hope this story will amaze you to what other nations in the world experience. Peace!
