In the Ru-Uk war I’ve seen and heard of men asking their pals to break their limbs by either jumping or landing a sledgehammer on them. In Chechen\Afgan wars it was popular too, but also gasoline injections into muscles usually leading to amputations of said limbs. Dodging by behaving like unhealthy or insane was always an option, but as I’ve heard, since it became too popular, recruiting centers started to ignore any disability as long as they can drag you into a van. Are there other creative ways to dodge the draft?

    For all dodgers whatever side you are on, esp russians:

    The best strategy is keeping a low profile and contact government\banks\services as few times as possible, prefering cash over cards, being unofficially employed in a small company that don’t play politics (some big employers had rectuiting quotas to please the admin) while living in a place other than your official registration. And not going anywhere even if called in: first time it’s just a fee, and there weren’t much noise about someone getting it as long as they are out of rec. center, in educational center or in armed forces where it becomes a crime with a heavy punishment.
