Compulsory Military Service
From a letter from the Kreiswehrersatzamt to a gentleman, who has been released from the compulsory military service
"Gem. § 24 Wehrpflichtgesetz unterliegen Sie jedoch weiterhin der Wehrüberwachung bis zur Vollendung Ihres 32. Lebensjahres..."
I found counter-espionage service in the Schöffler/Weis, however, I cannot imagine that this is correct in this context.
Thanks for any help with this.

: Kim has it right. A good example is what's happening to those poor unfortunates in the US Army's Individual Ready Reserve. To date 5,000 of them have been recalled to active service and are being packed off to Iraq.
