South Africa celebrates Armed Forces Day on February 21st. The South African National Defence Force was founded in its current form in 1994 after the abolition of apartheid and Nelson Mandela coming into power. At the time, compulsory conscription was abolished. Currently, the South African Armed Forces have more than 100,000 personnel including reservists, making them the combat-ready armed forces in the region.
