A morale patch with a badass Finnish Defence Forces skull print. This is especially for the eager jaegers who wanted it to suck more and hoped it would never end. The world needs more proper no-bullshit macho bullshit. Here you go!

Wearing this patch without having served in the FDF should not be considered "Stolen Valor". The patch is intended to show support, can be worn by anyone, and does not necessarily mean you have served.

Mandatory military service touches virtually every Finnish person. From a population of 5.5 million, 22,000 conscripts are trained annually. The FDF has a wartime strength of 280,000 and a reserve of 900,000 fighters. A man or woman in uniform doesn't draw attention on the street: everybody knows people who served, quite often by a close relation.

As you may guess, it's a mundane thing for us, and it's common to count the days to the end of your service. The end of active service, however, is the beginning of being a reservist.
