Germany creates assessment centers for the military

Germany has designated 24 sites for new centers to assess military candidates as it moves to expand the Bundeswehr.

The Defense Ministry said the first site was expected to open later this year as part of a new law on military service, DW writes. 

From mid-2027, young people will be assessed at centers for physical, mental and intellectual fitness. Two locations are planned in Kassel and Wiesbaden, with additional centers at existing military locations, including Bonn, Dresden, Hamburg and Ulm.

Eight more centers will be set up in cities such as Bielefeld, Dortmund and Regensburg, bringing the total to 24 across the country.

Germany has sought to increase troop numbers in response to Russia's war in Ukraine and updated NATO objectives. The country resumed a voluntary military service program last year.

Since the beginning of this year, 18-year-old men have been asked to fill out a questionnaire assessing their willingness to serve in the German military. /CNA
