With support from these studies the author has created an analysis model to answer the research question. Relevant material for this study was collected through text analysis of official documents and interviews with soldiers and conscripts. The analyses were conducted as a comparing analysis between Stockholm Marine Regiment and the Naval Base regiment, with a most similar design analyze.
The result concludes that there is a probabilistic connection between personnel supply and subcultures in Military units. (Less)
