    ... and to this day, the title "Guards unit" was assigned only to the best units

    And to this day I confuse the Guard and the National Guard. Which is simpler - they would call guards and everything is clear (i.e. flies from cutlets ...). soldier

      If equality has been revived, then what kind of ideology can we talk about, do not explain? therefore, it’s also prohibited. Suddenly, people will want to live like oligarchs and eat deliciously.

    The feat of a simple soldier.This is a feat.For each feat, if you look at everything that led to this feat. All the teams of his superiors and up the chain to the very top. There is a crime or stupidity of the authorities. Which, however, is the same.
