I can’t blame anyone for balking at being drafted into war.
I understand why Ukraine does this, though.
This is a terrible situation overall.

It’s one thing to feel you’re somehow not amenable to military service. It’s another thing to claim this and enjoy the night life.

>Ukrainian military recruitment officers raided restaurants, bars and a concert hall in Kyiv, checking military registration documents and detaining men who were not in compliance, media and witnesses reported Saturday.
>It is unusual for such raids to take place in the capital, and reflects Ukraine’s dire need for fresh recruits. All Ukrainian men aged 25-60 are eligible for conscription, and men aged 18-60 are not allowed to leave the country.
>Ukraine has intensified its mobilization drive this year. A new law came into effect this spring stipulating that those eligible for military service must input their information into an online system or face penalties.
Could Ukraine improve efficiency by letting or even conscripting women in non-combat roles?
