Russia still uses a draft: (from google) "As of 2021, all male citizens aged 18–27 are subject to conscription for 1 year of active duty military service in armed forces, but the precise number of conscripts for each of the recruitment campaigns, which are usually held twice annually, is prescribed by particular Presidential Decree."

1 year doesn't make a lot of sense. New recruit barely knows his L from his R and it's time to hang up the uniform.

I remember draftees counting the days to civilian life in the reception station before we were even assigned BCT units at Jackson.
