On 24 February 1555, Swedish King Gustav Vasa ordered the establishment of a Swedish Army unit consisting of Finns. Finland at that time was part of the Swedish Kingdom. This was the first such unit in the Swedish Army, and 24 February is now celebrated as the Finnish Army's anniversary.
The defence of Finland’s territory is based on the large reserve created by general conscription. Annually, the Army’s eight brigade-level units train around 20,000 conscripts. Refresher exercises, which maintain reservists’ skills, involve thousands of reservists each year.The Army carries its social responsibility by providing assistance to other authorities some 400 times a year.
