True enough, but their militia system predates the ComBloc period - got absorbed into it, then came out the other end afterwards back to their original mission duty.

They start them off young over there. ROTC on steroids.

There was a time when the skills to field strip, in the dark, a 1911 AND an M-1 were widely distributed among those in the population that “had a pair in working order.”

You just had to make sure you kept control of the springs when you released them, as they were hard to find in the dark.

My son could field strip and reassemble an AK when he was 11. Same with an AR.
