The number of draftees was reduced for the first time in Russia by almost 20 thousand people

Given the “demographic hole”, a wise and timely decision ...

I do not agree. Every young man fit for service must undergo at least some training in the minimum army specialty. To clearly know which side the machine or grenade launcher is charging. Not during the war (God forbid) teach him.

Minimum training can be obtained at the military department of the university. Unlearned, received sergeant epaulettes and walk. The army now needs specialists who can handle complex equipment. Such training can also be done in specialized universities ...

I remember the unforgettable 90s when, in the 96th election, Yeltsin promised a fully contracted army by 2000, earning pluses on this, because there was a mess in the army and nobody wanted to go there .. now this trick wouldn’t pass, it’s being revived "who didn’t serve that’s not a man "and it pleases

You can, even in school you can get a minimum of military training. But there is a Law, the Constitution, simply, common sense, according to which the entire population in the event of war will be divided into those who should be at the front, and those who will have to work for the front in the defense industry. In the modern realities of a big war, with the use of weapons of mass destruction, as well as natural and man-made disasters, natural disasters, the topic of training the population in civil defense is also relevant. What it all says, but to the fact that there can be no citizens who are not involved in the country's defense by definition. All adolescents, reaching the age of majority, should be equal in conscription, including girls, some serving in the army (on the “front”), others working as a foundation for the army (in the “rear”), but all going through short, but real courses, such as courses of a young fighter, calling for at least two months. From these courses it would be possible to sort recruits, who to call to serve further, with benefits and bonuses, who to send to the “rear” to work out and finance those who will actually serve in their place. This is fair and reasonable, our lawmakers and the authorities would be willing to undertake such preparation of the population for the defense of the Fatherland.

With what? To call in the army "dead souls" who are not born? How do you imagine this? Or produce "current lack of set"?

I completely agree with you. The question is otherwise, for this it is necessary to change our structure for the training of conscripts.

[Voyager]

Previously, such things and the ability to navigate on maps and much more were taught at school - it would be better if they returned this practice.

[Finches]

This is not a decision, but a necessary measure, precisely caused by the terrible demography of the 90s. But no one has yet canceled the military-trained reserve ...

[Sergej1972]

But really young male people at the age of 18 are several times more than twice (taking into account the spring and autumn calls) this figure of the call. True, someone is studying, someone for health cannot serve.

[siberalt]

How much wisdom is needed if there aren’t enough people to call. But the point may be that they reduced a large number of old generals and the need for summer builders fell away?

Children of officials and deputies will not go to serve?

They’ll go ... then ... someday ...

[Vard]

To be honest ... then they are not needed in the army ... some problems from them ...

[Topotun]

And they didn’t go before. And the fact that there are more contractors is right. not such a razdolbaysky attitude to weapons and equipment as the conscript.

[Doliva63]

To the level of secretary of the district committee, they certainly walked, served normally, by the way. Above - I have not met, except for one case - the grandson of a deputy of the Supreme Council, Hero of the Soviet Union, was a problem comrade.

Yeah, they’ll go to serve at the place of residence.
That is, in the army of other countries ..

liberal children will not go; they have the right to slope.
But take an interest in the fate of Jacob Dzhugashvili, Vasily Stalin, Artyom Sergeyev, Stepan Mikoyan, Vladimir Mikoyan, Alexei Mikoyan, Timur Frunze, Sergo Beria and many others.

[Million]

why be interested. I already know. the speech is about these, not about those)

[The Grubby]

It is interesting, by what principle do draftees choose in the conditions of their redundancy for the armed forces? Are the best of the best called up for the army, or how will the card fall?

[cariperpaint]

Oh well. go give))) why this nonsense to write?

[rpek32]

health bar raised. I read that one comrade so eagerly requested the army, but they didn’t want to take him, that almost through court he made his way to urgency.

[CT-55_11-9009]

There is one. A friend wanted to go to serve voluntarily three years ago - they refused, did not go only to the dentist, the bite was wrong. Well, put the braces, corrected, came to the next call - not a fig, they didn’t take it again, it was no longer suitable.

[Sergej1972]

Probably after wanted to go to the police? And there is no way without an army.))

[Bondik05]

It’s time to return the school and summer fees from the school. Here they have a minimum course and skills in handling weapons and must be vaccinated. Why reinvent the wheel, everything is thought up to us.

how the envelope will fall ...  Today it’s not so easy to get into the army .... at least with us.

This is the most interesting! The military commissar milks those who want to join the army and those who don’t. Some of my friends want to join the Army, others do not, the sum of the solution to the question is voiced by both!

[cariperpaint]

if you have such a person, then he will soon disappear. I recently just probed this issue with a mustache) it is unrealistic to solve. it’s easier to adopt two children and for this reason not to get into the army.

And the fact that there are more contractors is right ...

There will be another problem, they will marry and start a family, but where to get apartments for them, for all?

[LAWNER]

If a soldier does not have his own house, why should he protect a stranger ????
The call of the Far North, why the Chukche tank or Yakut machine?

[yuliatreb]

So that, like the ones in the photo, I went against the army, for what purpose, pushing pi .... to be behind the double basses, in general, why not list all the charms.

[Gardamir]

Does anyone represent a contract army, for example, in 41-45:?. Liberalism paces the country. Many go to a contract to close loans.

[Bronevick]

Now in the army do such hairstyles?

[ser65]

on the other hand, the troops were filled with crowds of uneducated contract soldiers, whom there was no one to teach military affairs.

The house for the soldier is his barracks, but if you follow your reasoning, you can agree to the question: what and why are we doing in Syria?
It looks like you never served in the army, you didn’t take the oath and in general are far from military service, but it’s not clear why and why you are here?
