Parade calculation RVVDKU, on Red Square, Moscow, 9 May 2005 of the year


94 a year ago, 13 November was organized by the glorious military institute of the armed forces of our Motherland - Ryazan Higher Airborne Command School (RVVDKU) named after Army General Vasily Filippovich Margelov.

History This institution began in August 1918, when it was decided to form the first infantry courses in Ryazan to replenish the commanding staff of the young workers 'and peasants' Red Army. In the future, on the basis of them, they organized the infantry first, and later the airborne school. 13 was the birthday of November. 1918 was the first day that the courses began. Colonel Ivan Aleksandrovich Troitsky was appointed the head of the school. The time was military, hectic, classes were held at an accelerated pace. Pupils were given only the very "basics" of military wisdom, taught to work with subordinates, to deal with weapons. The first red commanders were already released on 15 in March of the following year. Every last person they were immediately sent to various fronts of the civil war. In total, while there was a civil war, seven graduates or 499 people passed through the school.

In 1920, these infantry courses were renamed the Fifteenth Ryazan Infantry School. The term of training immediately increased to three years. And at the end of autumn 1921, the infantry school was awarded the Revolutionary Red Banner of the All-Russian Central Executive Committee of the USSR for its bravery and courage. At 1937, the school is being transformed into an infantry school of Kliment Voroshilov, one of the first Marshals of the Soviet Union. And on August 2, 1941, on an urgent basis, on the basis of this school in Samara, a military parachute school was secretly created for the training and training of airborne troops. In all the papers, the new part was hiding behind the 75021 number.

In November, 1943, the RTDSC, turned 25 years. On the anniversary day, by the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR, the training center was awarded the honorary order of the Red Banner. The document was written: "For military service to the Fatherland and great success in the preparation and training of officer personnel." During the years of the Great Patriotic War, ten valiant graduates of the school received the title of Hero of the Soviet Union.

In the summer of 1958, by the decision of the USSR Council of Ministers, the Ryazan Secondary Infantry School was reformed into a higher command all-arms force. The term of study has grown again, now to four years. Graduates of this institution could receive diplomas of higher education, but military training has not changed. Then vf Margelov, who led the airborne troops, suggested that our country's top leadership merge this school with the Alma-Ata paratrooper to train the officers of the Airborne Forces. In 1959, the two schools merged. 1 of May of the same year, the first group of cadets led by Colonel Leontyev arrived from Kazakhstan. The name - Ryazan Higher Airborne Command - the school received only by the end of their training on 4 on April 1964 of the year. The military parachute school of Alma-Ata, having joined Ryazan, also trained the officers of the Airborne Forces of our country.

V.F. Margelov carefully watched the institution. Under his strict guidance, the school has grown and has acquired an excellent training base, has changed beyond recognition. Much later, in the school in 1995, a monument to the famous general will be erected as a sign of gratitude to the merits of the founder of the landing service.



Vasily Filippovich Margelov was born in 1908 in the city of Dnepropetrovsk in a working-class family. In the Soviet Army hit the 1928. He graduated from the Belarusian military school. He served in the army as a platoon commander, then a company and a battalion. In the Great Patriotic War, he became commander of a rifle regiment, chief of staff, deputy commander of a rifle division, commander of a guards rifle division. He participated in the battles during the crossing of the Dnieper and the liberation of the city of Kherson. He was awarded the honorary title of Hero of the Soviet Union. Later was the commander of the Airborne Forces. Among other awards, Vasiliy Margelov is an honorary citizen of Kherson, an honorary soldier of a military unit of the Airborne Forces, a laureate of the State Prize of the Soviet Union, a holder of more than 60! Soviet and foreign medals and orders. He died in 1990 year. Under his auspices, the Airborne Forces achieved great results in the development of means for landing, training of troops and their armament, organization of units, and combat capabilities.


In 1962, knowledge in foreign languages ​​was put at the head of the preparation process. At the same time, the school began to accept and train foreigners. The first of them were Vietnamese, then Indonesians appeared. Today, guys from thirty-two countries of the world are studying at RWDCU! In 1968, in honor of the fiftieth anniversary of the Armed Forces of the Soviet Union, the school was again awarded the Order of the Red Banner, and in 1989 it received the Commander's Cross of the Order of Merit of Poland for excellent training within the walls of the training center of this country's military. 9 July 2004 of the year by the Order of the Government of the Russian Federation under the number 937-P School for the last time has now been renamed the Ryazan Higher Airborne Command (Military Institute) named after Army General Vasily Margelov. It is rumored that this was done on the basis of numerous requests from veterans and school personnel. For an excellent military training school in 2006 year awarded Vimpel Minister of Defense of our country.

This educational institution never rests on its laurels. Since 2008, the RVVDKU began to train girls in the military profession under the name “Use of Airborne Support Units”. Female officers will command paratrooper squads, helping to drop paratroopers, as well as military equipment on special platforms or complex multi-dome systems. Since 2011, courses have been opened at the training center to train military priests, as well as rabbis, imams and llamas for the sea fleet and the army.

Today, the institution includes the school itself, a training center sixty kilometers from the city, aviation squadron and parachute club. On the basis of the school, dormitories were built to accommodate students, laboratories and educational buildings where classes are held, a shooting range, sports halls, fitness rooms, for martial arts training, airborne training, a stadium, a canteen, a cafe, a post office, a club, and a consumer services facility, medical Center. On the territory of the school is the Orthodox Church of Elijah the Prophet and the Museum of the History of the Airborne Forces.

The school trains students in two specialties. The commander of the parachute platoon of the Airborne Forces with additional qualifications of the manager and the commander of the reconnaissance platoon of the parachute units of the Airborne Forces with the qualification of a linguist and translator. The military institute employs nine military personnel (armament and firing, special tactical training, humanitarian and economic disciplines, equipment and repair, airborne training, peacetime troop control, operation and driving, physical training, tactics) and three civilian departments (mathematics and physics, foreign languages, Russian). About a dozen doctors of science and several dozen candidates work for them. Military education systems are constantly being improved. Candidates undergo a rigorous multistage selection in the course of which a conclusion is formed on the degree of suitability of a particular individual to the demands of the chosen profession. Training at the Ryazan Institute of the Airborne Forces for all five years is based on the closest combination of practice and theory. Any independent work by cadets to improve their personal skills is welcomed and encouraged. During training, cadets spend more than a year in the field. And those who graduate with honors are given the right to choose their place of further service (unfortunately, so far within the scope of the schedule designated for the school).

    I congratulate the officers of the Airborne Forces on the holiday! Harsh men with intelligence in their heads - this is usually a contradictory combination in "ordinary" life, and no less there is a place to be! And this is very pleasing! So there is still hope for the revival of Russia! Happy birthday, friends! drinks
