Russian Armed Forces Food Service Holds Exercises in the Arctic

21

In the Arctic, the exercises of the Food Service of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation took place. They were held in the Pechenga district of the Murmansk region at a military training ground.

This was reported in the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.



The exercises consisted of delivering food for military personnel in the harsh conditions of the Far North. They were dedicated to the 320th anniversary of the creation in the Russian army of food and clothing services. On this day, February 18, 1700, a decree of the Emperor Peter I established the Provincial Order and the post of General Provider.

In the Arctic maneuvers held in honor of the significant date, participated units of the Northern Army Corps fleet. They worked out the use of new logistics support equipment designed to organize the catering of military personnel in arctic conditions. The exercises used a field kitchen, a bakery, a water tank, an economic and storage module mounted on the chassis of the DT-30 Vityaz all-terrain vehicle.

They started using similar equipment in 2017, at about the same time when Arctic units began to appear in the Russian Armed Forces.

Such special equipment can make march-throws for many kilometers in difficult terrain and prepare food for our military in 50-degree frost, and in short-term operation at minus 60 degrees.

        They don't pick up the weather for the exercises. The principle is the same: "Nature has no bad weather"! hi

          Once during the exercises near Kovdor, I observed 52 degrees of frost on a thermometer. Only from the numbers added. It was fresh laughing

            At the same time, it is possible that in Murmansk there was somewhere -15. On Kola, in terms of climate, everything is tricky: the north, the warmer. Gulf Stream is insidious. laughing

        With such devices, a dry bag can be postponed to NZ. Field kitchen KA-250 / 30PM and bakery KhPA-500 / 30PM, water tank TsVA-10 / 30PM and the economic and storage module KSMA-12 / 30PM. Well, even to the heap there is an Arctic GTMZ-14-30PM crawler fuel oil and gas tanker.

        And, I believe, this is done. So, I analyze a little through the media and from the Internet the state of the Navy of my service in 1975-82 ... After the destruction of the nineties, I’m happy to keep it up !!! North, north without end and edge, blue treblers triumph ... I leave the North forever, I leave a particle of my heart!

          Oppa did not know what happened in the SA. He spent most of his service in Turkmenistan, we didn’t have anything like that in soldering. but if there was no water in the flask, but rather a little slightly sweetened tea, they would have torn mercilessly.

      On February 18, 1700, by decree of Emperor Peter I, the Providence Order and the post of General Provider were established.


      Peter I (A.N. Tolstoy):
      ... Pyotr Alekseevich returned to the Governor General, sat down again in a gilded chair. Candles burned out. The guests had already drunk a lot. At the other end of the table, the shipbuilders, bowing their heads, were singing a mournful song. One Alexander Danilovich was clear. He immediately noticed that a corner of his mouth was twitching at the mines of hertz, and he quickly thought - why would it?
      - Here, have a snack! - Pyotr Alekseevich suddenly shouted to him, snatching a piece of moldy bread from his pocket. - Have a snack with this, Mr. Governor-General! ..
      - Min hertz, it's not my fault, Golovkin is in charge of grain deliveries, he choke on this piece ... Ah, thief, ah, shameless!
      - Eat! - Pyotr Alekseevich's eyes widened wildly. - You feed people with shit - eat it yourself, Neptune! You are responsible for everything here! For every human soul ...
      Alexander Danilovich led a tin to the mine with a languid, repentant look and began to chew on this crust, swallowing on purpose with difficulty, as if through tears ...

      The air temperature inside the machine, which is not thermostated by insulation, becomes painful for the crew even at an external air temperature below -20 ° C. The humidity in the car can reach 75% - 95%. These conditions lead to an increase in the level of colds, diseases of the skin and eyes, to frostbite of the hands and feet, which affects the combat effectiveness of weapons. At low temperatures, temperature control of the living space of the conveyor housing is of great importance. A long stay of people in a seated immobilized position with a sharp layer-by-layer temperature difference in the inhabited compartment leads to a loss of combat readiness. In existing samples of Russian armored vehicles at outside temperatures below -20 ° C, snow does not melt on the floor of the car, and at the level of the head of a seated person the air temperature reaches + 20 ° C. In such conditions, there can be no talk about the long-term performance of the crew. With a long march or halt, personnel should be able to remove warm clothes and shoes to dry from sweat and snow. The airy atmosphere of the living compartment must be dry and warm from floor to ceiling. Along with special units for filtering, heating and drying air, thermal insulation of the housing is of great importance. If it is not correctly calculated, any drainage systems will not cope with their task. The dew point of the heat-insulating material on the body at a temperature difference of -60 ° C to + 20 ° C should not be inside the habitable space of the conveyor. The thickness of the insulation should not significantly affect the useful internal volume of the conveyor. Thermal insulation should not emit toxic gases and maintain combustion. The service life of thermal insulation should not be less than 10 years. The weight of thermal insulation should be minimal. The famous Kharkivchanka possessed such properties. This is the technique of the conquerors of the Antarctic continent of the 50s. The layout of the extreme vehicle deserves attention now.

      My father served in Pechenga at 56m. He also talked about how they ate there in the field. Once, after being transferred to the training ground, when the food finally arrived, they urgently brought to their senses - stiffened, vodka and a piece of butter the size of a fist. I asked if there was diarrhea later. Father said there was nothing at all. The temperature in the barracks did not rise above 11 degrees. I hope the soldiers are better there now.
