A child of a Macedonian professional soldier stands as his father lines up with others during a protest against a law that mandates professional soldiers be discharged from active service when they turn 38, in Skopje October 31, 2009. Macedonia is not a member of NATO but their professional soldiers are included in the missions in Iraq and Afghanistan. The law is due to enter into force on January 1, 2010.
