Military service is between 18 and 27 years old for 2 years. I think most people do it super young. When I was in moscow about 10 years ago I remember seeing thousands of groups of 3 lads in uniform walking around the city. They all look very young, i guess a popular choice is to get it out the way earlier?
I'm not sure if there is any choice in when you start, but I cant imagine there will be anyone starting their service any time soon.
