November 11 Latvia dressed in military uniform

40
A so-called “patriotic” action is taking place in Latvia today, during which representatives of the “voluntary” paramilitary formations “Zemessardze” can appear at their workplaces (in civilian industries) in military uniform. The action is called “I am a landowner” (in the Latvian version), which would sound like this in Russian: “I am a volunteer”.

The campaign aims to show that the Latvian “land gates” can take at any time weapon "To protect their state from aggression." At the same time, the action is accompanied by the publication of photographs of the “zemesargs” in social networks. Some in military uniforms at the computers, others - in educational institutions and sports clubs, others - in warehouses and in construction and repair shops.



The action is covered on the pages of the Baltic portal Delphi.

November 11 Latvia dressed in military uniform







The action is timed to the holiday, which in Latvia is called the Day of Lachplesis. On this day (11 November) 1919 of the Year in Latvia, the Order of Lachplesis (the name of the heroic epic) in honor of the "reflection by the troops of young Latvia" of German troops advancing on Riga.

The President of Latvia called the servicemen and representatives of the national guard "symbols of strength and courage of the Latvian people."

        I don’t know what is the point, but we have 4 million hunters and ten times more fishermen (which is many times the population of the Baltic states) who roam almost all the time in forests and rivers in camouflage, without any action.

      This is a well-veiled operation of the Russian special services. Scouts from maskva in civilian clothes went to offices and firms across the country, and openly conducted a census of the Zemessardzev without any extension ...

      An interesting action ... At first they intimidated themselves with the "Russian threat", and now, so that it would not be so scary, they show that there are enough defenders and anyone can join the ranks. As for the comments above, such as: "you need to earn the form", "the enemy's manpower" and other ridicule, they are not in the business. Uniforms in Russia are worn by all and sundry! Wearing a uniform with insignia, you fall on the front sight of a potential enemy, regardless of the country. You can laugh at the military-political ambitions of the leadership, but you should not laugh at the patriotic feelings of the people and the preparation. Of course, the army "on weekends" and conscripts are not the same thing (especially the pros), but believe me, if you want, and the volunteers have it, you can learn a lot. And knowledge and skills will not bring harm. I don’t know how many a modern Russian conscript shoots in a year, but a Lithuanian (I can compare with Lithuania) volunteer, during the same year, on weekends shoots a thousand rounds of ammunition. Volunteer service provides certain social benefits, and days spent in the army are paid. Some people go there for this. But the attitude of society towards volunteers is positive and the appearance of a person in uniform at the workplace will, rather, cause a positive reaction. Well, they have no aircraft carriers, tank armies and a nuclear button! But there is a desire to study military affairs and defend their country. Including, such an action in the Baltics will go off "with a bang" - some will calm down, while others will make advertising at a minimum cost. It's a pity that in Russia I have not heard of such structures ...

        I will answer you with two quotes:
        "A lot of boys today think war is one glory, but guys, it's one hell." General W.T. Sherman
        "I discovered to my amazement that ordinary men and women were delighted with the possibility of war. I naively assumed, like most pacifists, that war was forced upon a resisting population by a despotic and cunning government." Bertrand Russell

        All these boys and girls look pretty in brand new camouflage to the first guts on the ground and charred corpses in armor.

          I agree. And these statements are equally true for all countries. Including for Latvia and Russia. But many people, duped by propaganda, imagine the war as a "heroic walk" according to cinematic scenarios. In the event of a war, the Baltic volunteers will form battalions and send them to the border to contain the enemy until the main NATO forces approach ... When I asked the commanders who would hold the "enemy" before the volunteers arrive, do they know how the Grad systems work and do they really want the entire gene pool to be destroyed right at the border and then not searched through the forests, then they called me a traitor and turned off the contract ... Including, people are not allowed to objectively look at reality. And when they run into her, see the bloody shit and hear the howl of shrapnel and the wounded, then most of these volunteers will scatter home ... if they have time. I don’t think that most of the couch hats in Russia are ready to become good fighters ... "Wars are unleashed by old people, and young people die in them ..."

      The action is called "I am a zemsearg" (in the Latvian version), which in Russian would sound something like this: "I am a volunteer."

      In Russian, it would literally sound like a "guardian of the earth", but in fact - a militia.
      It’s not a problem to pay attention to these warriors in military style - it’s customary to supply any shit with a pretty wrapper .. But the fact that their trunks are stored at home is really a problem. Back in the 90s, this gang was a half-drunk organized criminal group, reveling in its coolness and superiority over those without barrels.
      Then the carrying of weapons was allowed to all citizens in general, the passions subsided.
      And what will happen next is unknown to anyone ...
