Stempel adé! digital This is how digital the army is in everyday life

The article discusses the digital transformation of military service in Switzerland, detailing how various aspects of the process—from initial contact to recruitment, training, and leave requests—are being managed through a digital platform called 'Dienstmanager.' Citizens receive information about their military obligations at age 18, and by 19 they can choose their recruitment date using the platform. The system allows for flexible scheduling, integrates with university systems for academic verification, and provides digital documentation such as the 'digital service book' and 'Marschbefehl' linked to the Swisspass for travel. In cases where internet access is unavailable, a secure app called 'DIM-Wallet' generates a QR code for identification purposes.

Bias read (Center): The article presents a factual overview of the digitalization efforts within the Swiss military service system without overtly favoring any political ideology.
