Danish women now face being called up for 11 months of military service when they turn 18, after a change in the law came into effect. Under new rules passed by Denmark's parliament, women are to join teenage males in a lottery system that could require them to undertake a period of conscription. The change was brought in as Nato countries boost defence spending amid heightened security concerns in Europe. Up to now, women were allowed to participate in military service when they turned 18, but on a voluntary basis.

Exciting developments in European defense! Denmark has introduced conscription for women, marking a significant step in strengthening its national defense. Sweden has also reinstated conscription, and with both Sweden and Finland now full NATO members, the alliance is stronger and more unified than ever. Ironically, Putin’s actions have only accelerated NATO's expansion and readiness. Meanwhile, under Trump, NATO is ramping up defense investments to levels not seen since the Cold War — signaling a new era of military preparedness and transatlantic coordination. NATO is back!

You are cheering about drafting girls into the military?
And you believe this will make the military stronger?
Those two brain cells of yours are serving you well.

Now the US can properly leave NATO, since NATO finally shows the spark of life it was supposed to show, decades ago.
Goodbye Europe!

As usual another Degenerate European "country" follows Degenerate Surrender Monkey Frog France in exploiting rather than defending their women.
European "Society" and Government is a growing cesspool on the planet.

If women can sit in office or vote to send draftees to war, they can go to war themselves.

They need to implement Rush’s idea of having them all bunk together so their menstrual cycles sync up, and then when they all get PMS, that’s when they attack.

Boot camp is between 8 and 13 weeks depending on the branch of service.

Boot camp is one thing. Learning your military occupational specialty can take more than a year. So what do they do after their 8 to 13 weeks of Boot? And how do you recoup that training investment. Do they move into a 12 year reserve formation?
