Not number, but quality

The Defense Ministry increasingly values ​​the professionalism of military personnel.

Not number, but qualityThe Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation, Army General Sergei Shoigu, again drew attention to the need for a systematic increase in the number of contract servicemen. This was stated at the next meeting of the leadership of the Armed Forces, held last Monday at the Situation Center of the RF Armed Forces. According to the minister, by the end of this year in the army and on navy There must be at least 240 thousand contractors.

“Thus, in the year of 2013, taking into account the dismissal of personnel, it is necessary to select and employ more than 60 thousand people under contract for military service ... A large-scale task requiring significant efforts from managers at all levels,” Shoigu said. He reminded his subordinates that the presidential decree of 7 of May of last year “On the further improvement of military service in the Russian Federation” has been tasked to increase the number of contract servicemen by at least 50 thousand annually for five years. For its implementation in 2012, a new system of recruitment of this category of military personnel was created, quantitative indicators and priorities in recruiting military posts were determined.

In the development of the theme at the meeting, Deputy Minister of Defense - State Secretary Nikolai Pankov made a report. According to him, in general, the number of soldiers and sergeants employed in contractual service should be 425 thousand people by the beginning of 2017 of the year. And by January 1, the 2013, of which there were only 186 thousand of such servicemen. Many independent experts noted earlier that such a goal, stated even under the former Minister of Defense Anatoly Serdyukov, initially looked too ambitious and difficult to achieve. However, Sergei Shoigu, as they say, also signed the obligation to achieve the intended goal. And now Nikolai Pankov reported that the recruitment of contract servicemen is even ahead of schedule.

“In the current year, the targets for the first quarter were fulfilled by 107%. “They were selected and accepted for military service under the contract 10 699 people,” the deputy minister stressed. “We plan to employ at least 18,5 thousand people for military service in the second quarter, including 4,5 thousand people in April”.

And yet Pankov, citing pleasant quantitative indicators, himself proposed to place particular emphasis on qualitative indicators. The ministry tried to spell out very clearly the requirements that are set when recruiting for candidates for military service under the contract and for contract servicemen already serving in all its stages. Identified high enough requirements. And if at least one of them contracted ceases to comply, he is subject to dismissal.

“The results of the eight-month work on the recruitment of contractors show very, very good qualities taken to the service,” said Nikolai Pankov. - Among the newly recruited during this period, we have not a single emergency incident, not a single violation of military discipline, and finally, not a single report on dismissal. This means that today highly motivated young people come to the contract. ”

During the discussion of the problem, the Minister of Defense separately drew attention to such a category of contract servicemen as warrant officers and warrant officers. Everyone remembers that the former head of the department Serdyukov tried to eliminate them as a class. However, Shoigu decided to restore the category. Already demanded this week to prepare a directive with a list of established posts for ensigns and warrant officers, stressing that these should be technical posts only. “There are no warehouses, no bases - only for those places where we really need specialists for servicing sophisticated equipment and sophisticated weapons systems,” said Sergey Shoigu.

      Warehouses and bases are one thing. But the moral, military and political training must be at its best. After all, the fact is that modern young people going to serve on a contract basis must understand that they can be sent to the zone of armed conflicts at any moment, and that they will not pick flowers there, but fulfill their duty to the Motherland. Whatever it was like in the first Chechen war, when a rooster pecked in the ass, many high-ranking officers fell ill, went into refusal, arguing that they would not say they would fight with "peaceful" citizens. Why do we need such defenders? And even now there are such "cadres" among the officers who resist when they are sent to hot spots. If we have (a few) such "defenders" among the officers, then what to talk about about the rank and file. So quality in this case is needed first of all. And as a result, the same advertisement that we are talking about on the next forum thread.

        In principle, this fact is easy to explain, remember what was the attitude of the state towards the army, what anti-army campaign was launched in the media and society. When veterans of military operations in the military registration and enlistment offices were told: "We did not send you there!"
        Here's the result! First of all, it is necessary to raise the prestige of the army service, to conduct patriotic education at the state level, then there will be no such "officers"!

            “I hope there will be changes in the minds of civil servants as well,” why would one confidant of the president be replaced by another.
            "The Defense Ministry is increasingly appreciating the professionalism of servicemen" - this is a very sensible tendency, because with the destruction of the military education system, there will be nowhere to get new specialists, if only to subscribe from England.

    Well, there will be "sergeants" and "sergeants" in these positions, will that change there? It would be logical that the titles "ensign" and "midshipman" would bring, apart from moral, material satisfaction, more significant than the title of "sergeant" or "petty officer"

      We read the law on the State Reserve.
      The state reserve is a special federal (all-Russian) stock of material assets and constitutes the property of the treasury of the Russian Federation.

      The state reserve is intended for:

      - ensuring the mobilization needs of the Russian Federation;

      - ensuring emergency work in response to emergencies;


      The state reserve is subordinate to the Ministry of Defense. So, it turns out that the army will not have any reserves, and these warehouses will be transferred to the Ministry of Economy.

      Probably Shoigu meant something else. Unclear.

        Yes, he apparently just said on the topic of the day! Therefore, as the word "ensign" immediately evokes specific negative associations, there is an image of a hefty man who runs a warehouse, and at night in sacks drags everything that comes to hand from the warehouse!
        It is unlikely that in the words of the minister, in relation to "no warehouses", you need to look for some deep meaning, so I got myself a little points ...

        That’s nothing. At one time, Mr. Taburetkin waved his fist in front of the commanders’s nose (when Medvedev visited Ulan-Ude) and directly demanded that not a single contract soldier serve in the army for more than 8-9 years. The commanders will personally be responsible for this. (If you remember, a soldier who has served in the army for 10 years or more acquires the right to an apartment from the Moscow Region)

      A contractor is an employee who has entered into a contract in the Russian Federation for passing to services in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation.
      A mercenary is a person whose legal basis for activity is established by the Geneva Convention. In short, this is a person who is paid money for participating in hostilities. In addition, he does nothing else. He fights in the territory of a foreign state for money, is not a citizen of this state or a person residing permanently in this territory, DOES NOT ARE / SERVING any of the parties to the conflict. Accordingly, the status of a prisoner of war does not apply to him and he can be prosecuted if captured (or shot for a bathhouse, as luck would have it).

      It turns out: A mercenary costs money, based on his skills, experience, etc., the contractor works for the grandmas who give, without asking him!
      Well, it's like Russian realities, but in general it is the same thing, work for grandmas.

      And NOW REMEMBER: History shows that the sovereigns who manage their own armies achieved the greatest success, and the mercenaries did great harm.

      And an example of this is the free and strong Sparta and Rome (while in Rome there was a draft army). But Carthage, summoning the mercenaries to his defense, was miraculously not captured by them, although the Carthaginian commanders were at the head of the mercenaries.

      In the most difficult times for Italy, when power passed into the hands of the pope and several disparate republics, mercenaries were called to help. Their "valor" led to the fact that Italy was plundered - first it was ruined by Karl, then Louis, Ferdinand and the Swiss.

      Mercenaries, forgetting about the duty to protect the country, performed a series of actions that significantly weakened the security of Italy and reduced the danger and burdens for themselves.

      In the draft army, the military team is aimed at protecting society from armed attacks from outside, and is inextricably linked with its country.

      And under a hired army, a military collective becomes a group of well-armed people who serve not the country, but only a narrow clan or social group in power, paying for their work and using mercenaries to achieve personal goals.

      In turn, people who are not in power structures and who advocate a hired army also pursue their goals.

      Unfortunately, among the Russian officer corps, proposals for a hired army are also heard. Every year they are tired of educating new recruits who are not eager to serve the homeland. But gradually, the officers begin to realize the shortcomings of mercenary soldiers: low discipline, audacity and open disobedience. The officer has practically no effective leverage on the mercenary soldier - in any conflict, the contractor threatens with his departure from the army.

      Contractors do not disdain to steal and sell products, gasoline, spare parts, as well as ammunition and weapons.

      Great Britain has a mercenary army. But this country never had the danger of an enemy invasion of its territory. Do not forget that the professional English army, together with the French, defeated the Wehrmacht, created in Germany on the basis of universal conscription.

      So can a "small and professional army" defend Russia if there is a vast territory, natural resources and neighbors claiming its resources?

          Among any - foreign or ours, there are different people with different views, their principles and other gadgets. But a mercenary is a mercenary. Ask the officers involved in the Chechen campaigns. There will be different opinions, but there will be more negative. Although there were our contract soldiers, and on the other hand, true mercenaries. Our separate comrades, especially in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who in turn stood in order to leave for Chechnya. Not because of patriotism, but the opportunity to earn pr ... And not always in the battles they differed for the better ... Let not the honest and decent be offended. You, fortunately the majority!

        No claim to know-it-all laurels ...
        From the beginning of the 20s of the last century and until Hitler came to power, the German "army" under the leadership of von Seeckt "vegetated" disguised as the police, self-defense forces, firemen ... The selection for service in this "army" was the most brutal - the most healthy and thinking. Thus, the potential "garbage" was "weeded out". Subsequently, when "filling" the Wehrmacht units on the eve of World War II, those who served in von Seeckt's "army" as a private, received a squad, platoon, and sometimes a company under their command.
        The basis of the Wehrmacht was formed by the "backbone", fostered in advance, which brought success, and considerable, at the first stage of the Great Patriotic War.
        Today's "double basses" are the commanders of the same squads, platoons and companies in case of a "hot" conflict and partial, or perhaps complete, mobilization.

          Only there is one small one but who will fill the platoons and squads that will be led by ordinary contract soldiers. This requires a trained reserve, and a reserve is possible only with universal military duty.

          For information - take an interest in military registration and enlistment offices. They had to carry out the search not only conscripts. And in this case, this is not a military conflict, but a conflict with the commanders. For the double bass does not always want to carry out current work even for its own service. And at the slightest more stringent demand - threats - a report on the table. For not previously selected for the contract, but dialed , i.e. fulfilled the plan.

            I liked the word SUPER-TIME, the person who, having served the urgent, remained in the army. "Contractor" came with capitalism. Specialists and professionals are needed in the army, it's stupid to even argue, but there is a difference in the motivation of army service. I don't think that the incentive of big babos fosters patriotism, especially when there is a constitutional duty. In general, a professional army is not synonymous with a contract army, the army of the Soviet Union was professional in this sense, just like our Soviet hockey was professional (and what has become of hockey now ...). Be urgent for three years, such a conscript is no worse than a contract soldier (or even better), especially if only the best (with benefits and bonuses) are selected for three years, and the rest, after the courses of army and civil defense reservists, for civil service work off in the army fund, in the fund of those who serve in the army for three years urgent). This would not only save the budget for contract soldiers, but also replenish the military budget at the expense of the civil service. In addition, the army and civil service would create a mobilization reserve. As for the contract soldiers, then they would have found a place as military specialists and technicians. It is a pity that Sergei Shoigu is not like-minded here.

    And I still think that EVERY man should serve in the Army. When I served in 1988-1990, the first six months I served in a sergeant school (training), and they taught and drove us to the conscience. For six months, they taught the Morse code (I am a signalman), work on a teletype (typing on the keyboard), work at radio stations: R-140, P106, P109. They taught us how to "unwind wires", organize and deploy communication centers (military specialties: commander of a radio station, commander of a communication center, radiotelegraph operator, telegraph operator). In addition, twice a week they took me to the shooting range, fired from a machine gun, machine gun, pistol, and threw grenades. They dug in, ran, jumped and wore outfits. On Saturdays, PCBs, etc. In other words, they managed everything in six months! At the same time, dachas were not built, and they did not sit still. For half a year of such active service, we received maximum knowledge of military service. But the remaining year and a half, to be honest, I was engaged in (in the army) that was waiting for demobilization. It is my deep conviction that EVERY young man who is healthy MUST go through military service in the training mode. On the condition, of course, that the educational process will be as intense and intense as I had. During these half a year, everyone will be able to decide for himself whether he wants to continue serving (go to a contract) or not. But in the case of mobilization, everyone will be able to at least shoot, and have an idea of ​​military discipline, military order, military brotherhood, etc. This is my opinion.

        One hundred pounds! I didn’t have a chance to serve myself, but I found a school two-week trip to the camp on the subject of NVP. I remember one of the military commander's schools had a captain of about 35 years, and we and the others had a pre-retirement subpolankan. One day they attached this captain to us and he drove our school off on a march-throw, probably about 10 km. There was everything: a field, ravines, a swamp, all kinds of flashes from right to left, gases. In general, when they arrived at the camp, what was called a vidon. And the captain not only ran around like a horse, then in front of the column, now behind, and the view - like in a parade. The real officer. We, the guys from our school, were jealous of those guys who he was a military instructor.

        100 percent true! It was so with us! The platoon was from Afghanistan, commissioned (for the wound), starley. So when the rest ran three laps around the stadium in the mornings, we were 5 km away from the checkpoint through the forest. And on Saturday, all 10. I drove to the shooting range constantly. And how many trenches I dug with a sapper shovel! laughing In general, the platoon commander did not recognize any marks other than "excellent". At least for shooting, at least for putting on the OZK. You will train until you get excellent. "Good" did not suit him either, for "satisfactory" outfits he handed out like hot cakes! There was a man! And he himself ran with us, and jumped, and passed the obstacle course. But NOBODY dared to snap back, or refuse. We trained to tears! With anger. That would be physically no worse than the "decommissioned" starley. So that's it.

            It requires clarification hi The "Situation Center of the RF Armed Forces" is not a body, but a technically well-equipped room in the Central Command Center. Secure communication channels can be used to communicate with the same command center in Russia and many garrisons. Telecommunications, again, you can arrange videoconferences.
