“New Year's” storming of Grozny: 25 years of reflection

Rokhlin was a competent commander, quickly orientated himself ...

Fat traitors from the top and Yeltsin burn in hell for the guys thrown into this hell.

So it was ....

As far back as 131, I personally studied the plan for the occupation of Grozny on maps on the headquarters tent of the 1992 Maikop Brigade, everything was painted there, the SU-25, MI-24, EW coverage areas, light landing entry, infantry entrance with tanks, aphids, two years passed and all these plans thrust Yeltsin under the tail, with the cry of "Agla" they threw the soldiers to die

And there was October 1993, the center of Moscow, where two freaks set people up, and the third gave a command from the tanks to shoot, they probably thought that it would be so in Grozny - on the ball.

In one of the films recently posted here, dedicated to one of the special forces veterans (certainly a well-deserved one), the moderator asks the film’s hero about his attitude to Grachev, saying that all the bad words addressed to him are a libel. The hero agrees. And the lives laid down during the storming of Grozny are not on his (Grachev) conscience?

Everything was there and recklessly carried out reconnaissance and outright betrayal. Before the troops entered the FSK or whatever security was called there at that time, a whole tank column was gathered which the militants burned in Grozny and to those who defended themselves in one of the cafes they were asked to surrender 70 and all of them Chechens cut off their heads. Until the last drunk, Yeltsin lied that troops would not be deployed, however, troops entered the end of November. The storming of Grozny was described in general in one of the numbers of the Russian edition of the Soldier of Fortune. There was also a terrible movie in the video The End of the Maykop Brigade was called

a couple of guys, my friends, got on the first night ... both alive returned ... 81 regiment ...
one folder, the head of the police, attached closer to the house, and after half a year, a mixture ....

There are still many legends and frank rumors about the "first Chechen" one.
"Plowed field" for sane historians!
Therefore, in the beginning - "only the facts."
1. Marine Corps in the New Year's assault - WASN'T!
2. She appeared in Grozny a week later (with the Baltic Fleet and the Federation Council) and played a decisive role in ending the assault on the neighborhoods adjacent to the presidential palace.
3. The assault of the palace itself - WASN’T!
4. The main losses were suffered by the MP BF on January 18, 1995 during the storming of the “green” quarter, and this day is considered to be “Memorial Day” in the Baltic.
5. MP with Pacific Fleet appeared even later and its first operation in Grozny - forcing Sunzha and combing the “Minutes”.
6. The assault "Minutes" in the "first" war - WASN'T! There was an assault on "heavy" buildings on the street. Musorova and Saykhanova 2 and 3 dshr odshb MP BF.
7. When capturing the eastern part of Grozny, the first group seized the bridgehead one quarter on the other side of the Sunji bend - 3 pdv pdd odshb MP BF (under the command of your humble servant .... :-)), - a dilapidated pedestrian was used to cross the river a bridge to the south of the bend, in the area of ​​responsibility of the Airborne Forces (they managed to capture one house behind the bridge on the other side of the Sunzha River. Then, under cover of 3 traffic detachments, 1 infantry regiment and 6 drc were transferred to the bridgehead. By the end of the first day of the operation, XNUMX quarters were taken.
8. The first group (from oddsb MP BF) "cutting" the eastern part of the city "from west to east" (two days earlier than the plan!) Was commanded by S. Sheiko (later Hero of Russia).
9. The authors of the operation plan for the bend Sunzha - the commander of odshb MP BF Guards. n / a Darkovich
(subsequently Hero of Russia) and chief of intelligence OBMP BF Guards. Mr. Nazarenko.
10. The smallest losses (21 people killed incl. 2 of 580 people) of all the active units of the federal troops in Grozny were at the command and control unit of the BMF BF. n / a Darkovic (later Hero of Russia).
11. Among the L / s odshb OBMP BF arrived at the "deployment to the states of wartime" from the ships - the losses were TWO times higher than among the "indigenous" MP sailors who went through six-month field training. The command and officers of the battalion of time to train the new arrivals - almost did not give! Because of this, there was even some semblance of an “officer riot” when sent from a place of deployment.

Well now a little lyrics of the time.

Dedication to local war veterans (written BEFORE Chechnya)

1. They didn’t kill me,
Turned out to be alive
But now in this world,
- He became forever a stranger.
2. I won’t tell you this,
Try to forget
That I only lived there
It remains here - to survive.
3. To live alone,
Before my grandson’s wedding,
Not know what is
Pain, death and separation.
4. But night and day,
I see a slope
Where lay under fire
Our second battalion.
5. Inaccessible spring,
I don't need flowers
In memory of dreams
Like the severity of the shackles.
6. The heart is bent in an arc,
The silence of the nights
I can’t forget
Non-friends.

"Zasunzhinskaya".
1.
Grenade in the grenade launcher,
Cocked machine,
A bulletproof vest weighs on his shoulders.
Sometime in Baltiysk,
At the festive table
We will remember about Chechnya,
And about all this.
Recall the screams in the night
"Allah Akbar!",
Burning floor spans,
About those who cut short their lives,
About the tracer of Dushman machine guns.
2.
Let them tell us:
"Why were you there?"
And hurt in the back
A casual unkind word.
The Russians met us
And don't let them lie later
Like in the 43rd, somewhere near Pskov.
We remember the yard,
Like the moon
Cursed courtyard of the green quarter.
Last snow, behind Sunzha, in the morning,
Covered in blood
And Baltic glory.


Waltz of winter Grozny.

1. We served, did not wait for awards,
When the order suddenly came
Dividing us all
On come, and no, back.
2. Ice-covered houses.
Deserted city in the snow
Where every stone is ready
Will meet us with fire.
3. And there was no chance except
Calm down and go wild
Don't be afraid of spilled blood
And hoarsely make fun of death.
4. Even those who are lucky
Better it all seemed like a dream
To not happen
We will return separately.
5. Survivors - met by the orchestra,
The sobbing of copper lips.
Some embraced flattery
The others were hugged by an oak.
6. We did everything we could,
Russia - do not forget those
To the frozen clods of the earth
Forever covered the chest.
7. They served, did not wait for rewards,
When the order suddenly came
Dividing us all
On come, and no, back.

it’s a pity the guys who died because of the stupidity of greed .. the then top in the Kremlin.

. And now, those who survived are fighters of the highest category.

The main thing here is to understand the following:
1. The technique was originally not intended to storm a fortified city. And for occupying it, controlling and suppressing insignificant resistance. Accordingly, the forces and means were appropriate.
2. There were no amendments to the constitution allowing the army to fight on its territory.
3. The army was a complete collapse.


There initially the operation was supposed to be at the level of taking Racca and Aleppo. With aviation, artillery, communications suppression and city isolation.

In addition to the produdaev lobbyists in the media and in the State Duma, the general traitor Eduard Vorobyov (in 1994 the deputy commander in chief of the SV for combat training) should also be recalled. He generally refused to carry out the order of the Minister of Defense, after which he was “recognized” as a hero among liberals and the media, became a State Duma deputy and adviser to the Gaidar Institute.

Just remember the guys ... Just keep quiet ... Let's remember a kind word ... Bloody scars on the heart of the Russian army ... Hearts of mothers who did not wait ... Hearts of officers who did not save ...

My officers from the EW unit from Sary-Shagan (part 06838) in the 95th deployed stations near Khankala and listened to all the Dudayevites' talks in Grozny, could intervene. They even suggested at Czech frequencies to communicate such information in pure Russian-Ichkeria (regarding the center and the palace): "... the feds are ready to use tactical nuclear weapons, everyone to go down to the basement floors or leave their positions." At this point, the assault groups could pull out the remnants of the Maykop brigade, but someone “above” said no. “No,” just to the words that would definitely undermine the spirit of this ... But still, this Reb script worked out in Bamut, the second Chechen one, in 1999, but there the army was almost ready to use tactical nuclear weapons. Nevertheless, only "words about nuclear weapons" at frequencies common with the Czechs forced the latter to scatter through the mountains. Not applied ...

Hmm) And about the acquaintance ... He’s dragging the assault, then only from Ryazanka, snot ... Well, so he told me about that complex "Lynx", SK at 12,7. he saw him there at the GRUSHNIKOV. Hi to someone for that mark from the book, and I read this one)
