August 2 - Airborne Forces Day

203

Airborne troops - "winged infantry", "blue berets" - with what epithets did not award paratrooper guards, but always, at all times and under any circumstances, the strength, courage and reliability of people living according to the principle: "Nobody except us!".

History The Airborne Forces (Airborne Forces) originated on August 2, 1930 - then, on the exercises of the Air Force of the Moscow Military District near Voronezh, a paratrooper unit of 12 people was parachuted. This experiment allowed military theorists to see the prospect of the advantages of paratroopers, their enormous capabilities associated with the rapid coverage of the enemy in the air. Since that time, the Day of the paratrooper is celebrated. At the beginning of 1933 in the Byelorussian, Ukrainian, Moscow and Volga military districts were formed aviation special battalions. By the summer of 1941, the staffing of five airborne corps of 10 thousand people each had ended. Paratroopers have always been at the forefront in the battles of World War II.

Flag of the Airborne Forces of Russia The airborne troops inscribed many bright pages in the history of the armed forces. Their valor and courage, selfless dedication to the motherland forever fanned with unfading glory. And today, paratroopers evoke respect and admiration, both among veterans and young people preparing for military service. They are where the most dangerous, where you need high combat skills and excellent physical training, self-sacrifice and courage. "Blue Berets" is always at the forefront - whether it is a peacekeeping mission or participation in an antiterrorist operation.

      And not always a beautiful reset,
      It's a hard work,
      Order, go ahead, and no question!

      Passed, that Rambo will give a head start!

        Paratroopers have already turned on the fountain!
        The police strengthened the outfit!
        No wonder, because there is someone to compete with force -
        The paratrooper is not a simple soldier!

        And do not judge strictly for fun,
        After all, the service worked it out,
        And do not suffer the paratrooper from a hangover,
        Take from life everything that is given to her!

        FOR RUSSIAN LANDING!

        Today in Russia is celebrated Airborne Forces Day (Airborne Forces).
        In Moscow, celebrations will begin with a prayer service in the church of the Prophet Elijah.
        The same day is the day of the prophet Elijah, who is considered the patron saint of landing troops
        Then the paratroopers will go on a religious procession to Red Square, and after that they will move to the central parks of the capital.

        Glory to the Airborne Forces !!!

      Somehow it happened, I trained myself in the Airborne Forces, pulled myself up 20 times, 3 parachute jumps (D5-series2) with 1 km, but not fate, the medical board got excited at the last moment - the battalion, guard sergeant and 2 of the year of service. But I consider Airborne Forces to be my holiday. Familiar paratroopers say:
      - wear a vest, do not be shy, earned it by jumping, but do not take it.
      But I don’t count on either of them, whether I am right or not.
      ALL WITH A HOLIDAY !!!

        After 3 jumps in the paratroopers, I was transferred by the USSR parachute master Comrade Gena (Airborne Troops) with one blow to my pink ass with a reserve parachute, which had never worked for me, and pulled out the latch on the device in time.

      Igor, hi ! Already posted, but for the sake of such a thing I repeat:The day before, the chief of staff of the Airborne Forces, Lieutenant General Nikolai Ignatov, at a press conference in Moscow, said that no one would forbid swimming on the paratrooper’s fountains on that day.

      "Bathing in fountains is not a crime. It is not an end in itself - to bathe and beat bottles on your head, this is a purely symbolic event, and, in my opinion, there are no consequences," the general stressed.

Although what are you afraid of! You are the airborne troops! That says it all!
    You have good prospects ahead ... the era of "Marshal Taburetkin" is behind ... there is special attention and hopes for the further development of the Airborne Forces ahead ... raising their status. And it is right! We need MOBILE parts of the defenders of RUSSIA!

            By the way, yesterday (August 1) it turned out to be the Syrian Arab Army Day, so I think the Syrian people can be congratulated on the past holiday, and today we can wish all of us victories in the battles (if there are any) with our enemies. Since the enemies we have in common with Syria.

      № 113 << 01/08/09 INTERESTED IN MANY 3
      What do you do at your leisure? To many
      difficult to answer this question, because
      that we often spend our free time
      we spend on home fuss and a TV.
      For Ukhtins Oleg Simonyuk this is a question
      plain. His hobbies can be said
      became almost his second profession.
      One of them is professional
      photograph, to others - collectible-
      badge, pennants, chevrons and other
      symbols of the airborne sub-
      divisions and parachuting. He is a famous fa-
      Lerist and Signist. Without false modesty
      Oleg Vladimirovich admits that
      so complete collections are only a few on
      all post-Soviet space.
      And although there was no collection in the family of Simonyuk
      onerov, undoubtedly, his passion for military
      symbolics come from childhood. He is the son of
      doctors. From childhood he was accustomed to spar
      Tang lifestyle: frequent travels,
      disorder of life, quick military
      fees. Therefore, the current work related
      with business trips, for him the usual thing.
      And, of course, there was no question before him
      serve or not serve in the army. He wanted to become
      military, but did not work out. After successful
      graduating from vocational school-5 Oleg Simonyuk was called up to
      Military establishment. As I dreamed, I got into the Airborne Forces.
      I had a chance to serve in the air assault bri-
      reptile in the Amur region.

      2 August 2013 11: 24
      After serving in the army went to study in
      Minsk to the Belarusian State University
      University of Automation and Electronics. In Bel-
      Russias have paternal relatives.
      Orthodox people. Because Christian tra-
      he absorbed the dices from early childhood. Still
      as a child often rested there in the summer. At home
      Oleg met his ancestors and his wife Lada.
      I don’t particularly want to remember army life
      telos. But it happened that meeting with the
      shimi in the army, paid attention that everyone
      praises his kind of troops. Himself, of course,
      den that service in the Airborne Forces is more honorable and responsible
      others. Only in the airborne troops
      you can feel real companionship
      mutual assistance, and the rule is “perish, and comrade
      schA help out "- will forever become your life-
      principle. “Even in due time, our dad,
      the legendary Vasily Filippovich Margelov,
      said that there are no former paratroopers, -
      notes Oleg Vladimirovich. - That's why we
      going on August 2. In addition to border guards and
      paratroopers, nobody celebrates birthday like that
      denia troops. And no matter what the weather
      - snow, rain or heat - still go through
      pubic marching march. "
      The love of Oleg Simonyuk for airborne landing
      This army was embodied in its vast
      collection. The first exhibit was
      Chevron of the USSR Airborne Forces,
      with whom he served from 1987 to 89 years. Since
      a lot of water has flowed, and the number of exhibits
      the collector has not counted for a long time.
      Visiting different cities, communicating with specialists
      sheets, acquires badges, signs, fraucers
      (they can be attached to civilian clothes),
      pennants, awards. His apartment reminds
      Small Airborne Museum. With seemingly
      each exhibit is the most seriously registered

      The captured Russian paratrooper, both in blue and black berets, is not considered a prisoner of war - he is shot on the spot (from the charter of the US Armed Forces)

      If they had given me a company of Russian paratroopers, I would have put the whole world on its knees (US General Hake)

      Margelov’s people should not be captured, but shot on the spot, since the paratrooper is a saboteur in captivity (from the US Armed Forces charter)

    To blue-and-white sky-colored vests, greetings and greetings from the deep blue sea depths:

    "VEST.

    How bad it happens sometimes
    So - joyfully in minutes!
    Vest life to body forever
    It is nailed then with a taste of cyclutes.

    There was an idea - to wash a vest
    And repaint in light shades ..,
    But I can’t tear him off;
    Powerless even bathing dungeons!

    I threw a cry and set a price
    Anyone who can cope with the task ..,
    Once on top someone grumbled
    That I can consider my own rock luck!

    I gratefully bowed my brow
    Trying to hide my disagreement with humility ...
    And soon I was extremely lucky
    Solve your problem overnight!

    It so happened that I fell in love with the trash!
    Forgot your recent problems ...
    The bed and bread were divided in half
    And the general exaggerated topics ...

    She replaced me with an image ...
    And time passed, scattering dreams -
    My vest cut my eyes
    And I endured washing through tears ...

    She tore off the vest with the skin,
    I was pleased! I was horrified -
    This is not my mom’s birth ..!
    And the sky above us shuddered!

    She did not have time to burn my cover!
    I pulled the skin almost out of the firebox,
    I fit into it and started to run
    From languid eyes and mouth-watering ass!

    I lived alone, but I was myself!
    Still nourished himself with hope
    That we will still be friends with Fate,
    With the same vest under your clothes! "
    Let the canopy of parachutes always fly over you.

        LGBT leaders in St. Petersburg screamed that they were fed up with jokes about the parade on August 2nd. and they finally decided to hold their homosexual action on August 2, 2013. If suddenly such an opportunity turns up for men, then let at least one of them work with a mobile phone, take pictures, not with his fists. You can also organize a sweepstakes - blue vs blue berets.

                    P. was paid for the provocation, or he decided to make a profit out of it,
                    the guys in uniform were given an order.
                    I completely understand the landing; in Kiev, such P. are identified before the “parade” and recorded at their collection points, where there are no journalists.
                    After which the “parade” did not take place because the organizers were “brutally” beaten.

It is for this reason that a former NTV journalist who recently broadcast about humiliated and insulted gays in Russia received political asylum in the United States. And you say life is good, it’s sweet for the rich, but where should the “peasant” go? He also wants to get into a free society, shake his balls at the gay parade, but no, they don’t let him, but here is Desantura.

    Once on the street I saw two paratroopers. A captain, about thirty years old, and a contract sergeant.

    Both are “over two meters”, both are sinewy, not a drop of fat. In slightly faded form. Tired and gloomy. And there was such a strong feeling from them, despite all their exhaustion and fatigue, that I, my friends, involuntarily filled with pride. And, indeed, I thought, SUCH, they would break off the horns of any devil.
    And, after all, they survived, despite any “reforms”. Elite...

    Romance is a short-lived thing and fades away quite quickly. What remains is everyday hard military work and, no matter how pretentious it may sound, loyalty to Duty.

      People gathered to look for work, by the way, they all hire them, and work for pennies. And for the sake of the holiday they have to show off. And do you think this is normal? So let's celebrate the day of the artilleryman (infantryman, sailor, air force, border guard, railwayman, etc. )we will drive everyone.

    HAPPY Airborne Forces Day!!! There is no such thing as a former landing. Therefore, I wish everyone to remain a worthy landing force until death.

      Only a paratrooper knows the true value of life. For he looks death in the eye more often than others.
