Service promotion

36
The Ministry of Defense has recently been concerned about how to draw attention to the contract service. Today, the number of contract soldiers in the army is not enough for its complete set, and plans to attract military personnel who wish to conclude a contract are being implemented with varying success.
One of the initiatives to increase the number of contract soldiers in the army is related to providing graduates of Russian universities with the opportunity to enter into a contract with the Ministry of Defense for a period of two years. In this case, the graduate will receive a salary at the level of 30-35 thousand rubles and the right to live where he sees fit (not necessarily in the barracks). If he wants to terminate the contract, he will have to serve as a conscript, based on the ratio of "1 call service day for 2 contract service day". Example: if a contractor has served a year, after which he terminates the contract, he will have to serve another six months as an ordinary conscript.
Service promotion

The Ministry of Defense is trying to attract potential conscripts to military service. For this, in particular, outsourcing was introduced. Today wet cleaning conscripts spend in the barracks, but invited civilian specialists work in canteens, on commercial areas, in car parks. They cook food, fix appliances, do laundry.
Such a principle discourages people of the older and middle generation. People who are accustomed to consider the army a school of life are wondering how a soldier who is repairing a military vehicle, infantry fighting vehicles or erasing his things can be completely combat-ready.
The Ministry of Defense has a different argument. Its representatives say that outsourcing allows recruits to carry out their direct duties, devoting proper time to martial and combat training, and acquisition of skills weapons. In field conditions, soldiers and equipment are repaired, and porridge is cooked by themselves. Only sometimes such technicians and cooks have to choose, literally poking at the first soldier who had absolutely no practice in this matter.
On the one hand, outsourcing is not a bad thing, because it allows a soldier to forget about distractions unusual for modern service, but on the other hand, outsourcing sometimes leads to a corruption plane. The Ministry of Defense needs to take this into account and modernize the existing system, which has not yet been completely formed.

    the option with this "outsourcing" is somehow controversial - a stupid word.
    It is interesting how Prokhorovka would look if all 34 were repaired not by soldiers, but by incomprehensible civilian personnel. Likely losses in the tank troops would be much more deplorable!
    Okay, there already repairing the engine on the battlefield is not an easy task, but they should be able to put on the tracks.

        military service is work (yes, dangerous, responsible and not easy). so create, first of all, decent conditions for doing this workso that the soldier feels socially protected (decent salary, housing, etc.).
        and it is also necessary to return to the "Soviet past" - DOSAAF (exactly in the form in which it was under the Soviet Union), which was engaged in the propaganda of the army, prepared teenagers for military service, etc. Of course, this requires a lot of money, but you yourself understand that you should not save on security ...

          Those in power are not idiots, they all perfectly understand. In particular, they understand perfectly well that it is one thing - when people take to the streets who know which side to take the machine gun from, how to stop a tank or a police armored personnel carrier, how to storm the mail, telephone, telegraph, and so on; and quite another - when to blame the snickering "elite" will come out office inmates, WoT heroes, and other elves of the 80th lvl. And it is precisely these considerations that the authorities are guided by when allocating money for the army, weapons, and the education of young people.
          Such is the party’s policy at this stage =)

            A little bit about the British:

            But the next group of Skyhawks was flying over West Falkland, crossing a strip of land from the south from Mount Rosalia to the Meni Bay. Unfortunately, the first thing they saw was the Ardent, in which fires were almost out of control.

            Once again, Captain Rank 2 West turned all his weapons on the enemy. His 4,5-inch gun mount was back in service, but as soon as they completed the tip, the Argentine pilots turned away, making a large two-mile U-turn back to West Falkland. Everyone knew that they had not left for long, but, although not sufficiently combat-ready, the “Ardent” still did not give up. There was no one left on one of his anti-aircraft guns to shoot, so NAAFI Ship Buffet Manager John Lick, a former army professional, made his way through a damaged deck to an assault rifle to fire from it.

            blah blah blah

            I was sure that over time many stories about heroism would appear. But most of all I was amazed at the behavior of John Leake, who was driving an automatic machine on the "Ardent". He really did not serve in the Navy in the literal sense, but as we say: we are all one team - from the commander of the ship to civilian NAAFI. And we all go together.

            This is the 82nd year of a conflict with Argentina.

            silver_roman - I'm all for what. Civilians can be not only in the conflict zone, but also actively participate in it. Never seen in war "civil" or "military" (no matter what is listed there in the Hague protocols), there are citizens of their country (the so-called "patriots") and all the rest ("skins" if simply).

            And the country is undergoing reforms. Reforms are always underway or whatever increase efficiency.. hmm ... well or why else.

            Pe Se. Outsourcing is byak.

              Sorry to interfere with your controversy, but,
              NAAFI’s ship sideboard manager, John Lick, a former army professional, crawled through a damaged deck to an assault rifle to fire from it.

              this manager, as can be seen from the note, is still an army pro. Although the former. And to fire from something rifle-anti-aircraft, but against a rapidly moving and maneuvering target is not so simple. Could this be done by the person who saw this most anti-aircraft only in the movies? Would he have at least three formations, patriotism to the bone and no service, no skills? what

    First we create a problem for ourselves, then we try to solve it, moreover, struggling with the effect, not the cause. We wanted to increase the attractiveness of conscript service, and reduced the urgent one to one year. Did it help? It seems that not very much, since the next step was required - outsourcing, which, rather, only exacerbates the problem, turning the army into a kind of pioneer camp. Another gesture due to the one-year service - contract service, for us, the USA, which is now snickering, is a great authority! In addition to the States, which themselves print their green "candy wrappers" for the whole world, with their "professional army", there is recruitment by recruitment in Great Britain (with their long colonial traditions), and Germany, which first reduced the urgent to 6 months, and then urgently became solve the problem by declaring the transition to a contract army. Everything, all the other strong armies of the countries of the world SERVICE ON DRAWING! This is the army of China, North Korea, Pakistan, India, Syria, Israel (even women liable for military service), Italy, Spain, France (70% for conscription). We no longer have anyone here to take an example from, do we have our own traditions? There is a duty under the Constitution - to defend the Motherland, who did it stop? We do not need contract soldiers, but super-conscripts for a number of positions and military professions. On the call, you need to serve as long as you need to train a good soldier and military specialist, you must understand, at least 3 years. In order to prevent the size of the army from increasing excessively with an increase in the service life, this is solved by dividing the urgent one into military (with benefits and bonuses) and civilian, with a course of initial military training and further civilian workout for the army fund. Everything, you can choose the best for the army, let the rest finance their service from their salaries, including women, as in Israel. Do you want "contractors"? Create a semblance of the French Foreign Legion, where mercenaries from all over the former USSR and Eastern Europe will serve for money and Russian citizenship. We would like to make the army strong, we would, but when money, profit "rules", and all kinds of outsourcing appear, when patriotism and general morality fall in defense of our Fatherland.

    The fifth attempt to popularize the service. Only recently during the 2007-2012 reform, thousands of contract soldiers were reduced by organizational measures, posts of midshipmen and ensigns were eliminated. All these measures were publicly substantiated by the NSSh RF Armed Forces. Under the approval of the President (Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces) and the Prime Minister Minister.Not two years have passed since the Russian Ministry of Defense conducts directly opposite measures? Why are they shy? Why haven’t they reduced the positions of ensigns in the Ministry of Emergencies, the Federal Security Service, the Ministry of Internal Affairs? What kind of pranks with the military police?

      I can explain the alleged development of events about the police - before Sochi-2014 it was decided not to deploy a new structure with incomprehensible functions, but for now keep the old one so that there is someone to steer order (the military service, that is, with its commandant’s offices) ... well, after Sochi they’ll form the police, having transferred to it some parts that were unnecessary after the Olympics ... something like that ...

    I was always enraged by the "work" of painting borders, unloading coal, etc., which had nothing to do with the service. However, the rest must be done by the forces of the troops - to feed themselves, to restore and maintain order in the premises, to carry out routine repairs of equipment, etc. It's just that the Serdyukovs-Shoigu, due to their ignorance of the specifics of the troops, have no idea what's what. Yes, and relatives / friends, go and make money on this (though I have no facts, but I can assume))). And I have a kimono jacket with a red star and the inscription on the back "USSR Armed Forces" - the best promoter of military service. True, in the Soviet. For the "Russian" I will not sign, however. And what kind of army can a state have if it is neither this nor that? The same. "So shtaaa ..." (C)

    Those in power are not idiots, they all perfectly understand. In particular, they understand perfectly well that it is one thing - when people take to the streets who know which side to take the machine gun from, how to stop a tank or a police armored personnel carrier, how to storm the mail, telephone, telegraph, and so on; and quite another - when to blame the snickering "elite" will come out office inmates, WoT heroes, and other elves of the 80th lvl. And it is precisely these considerations that the authorities are guided by when allocating money for the army, weapons, and the education of young people.
    Such is the party’s policy at this stage =)

      no, well, everyone has their own views on life in general and on what is happening in the country - in particular. But personally, it seems to me that those in power are not worried about how to protect the country from an external adversary, but about protecting themselves, loved ones, from their own people. Maybe in your country (Russia) everything is a little better than in Ukraine. But not much.

      They began to beat the servicemen of the SA and the Navy, and to throw them out of the trains, mainly the officers, around the autumn of 1988. The command of the units, garrisons, and naval bases recommended that officers, midshipmen, and conscripts living in the suburbs and problem areas, arrive in civilian service. The first delays in monetary allowances (salaries are received in civilian life) for about 3-4 months for the first time IMHO began in the spring of 1992. A couple of years before the Chechen campaign.

    Outsourcing is a good thing when serving a year, because in a year you need to make a soldier from a conscript, not an armored personnel carrier repairman, or an assistant cook

    And who will feed this "soldier" in the war, who will repair his armored personnel carrier, when all the "outsourcers" will be called up for service, but not cooks and repairmen, but the same soldiers, who are they in the army specialty - gunners-drivers-gunners?
    In the Soviet Army, each driver was also a repairman of his tank / armored personnel carrier / car, etc., and did not wait for any outsourcers, but repaired everything himself. That is why the Soviet Army won. And if you are not trained, how can you fix it in battle or after a battle?

    The problem of exemption from some work of military personnel (a bit long, however, well, I do not like words of foreign origin) has a place to be. Another thing is that you do not need to bring it to idiocy. It is possible to give cooking services in the maintenance and repair plan, maintenance of the communal services and the current repair of buildings and structures to service companies. At the same time, specialists in food and clothing services in units should even be in peacetime states. With the housing maintenance service in exactly the same way. It is very difficult to look for specialists at the right time, and, as you know, he sneaks up in the form of a thick fluffy polar animal on soft legs and imperceptibly. Regarding the acceptance of military personnel with higher education on a contract, they also passed. Although he will have three higher educations - a young man, a dushar, an elephant (emphasize the necessary), he is like that in Africa. And to understand what for what and why it will start somewhere in six months. No need to step on the rake that has already been stepped in Ukraine. And even 10 years ago. At first they began to take on a contract with higher education without fixed-term service. Then any. As a result, conscription in the Armed Forces of Ukraine is terminated. Now everyone is serving under the contract and the minimum term of the first contract is 3 years. True, the procedure for awarding ranks to junior command personnel has changed. But this is a different story.

    This outsourcing (pah! Filthy word) is very interesting. One cook is normally set for 30 people eating, and in parts there are not even cooks in the states of the units! That's cool, huh? The doctors were left only in the deployed units, and in our unit there is not even a state health officer, although we are standing separately from everyone at the border, and the hospital is 200 km from us. The soldiers do the washing themselves, since there is nothing to carry the laundry for 100 km for washing, civilians are engaged in cleaning the territory and premises, but they have never been given a salary for the work already done. Do we need such outsourcing? And if we add here that the state does not have a single technician, then the situation becomes very deplorable!

    the contract army is evil and the machinations of enemies. Yes, everything sounds beautiful, professional, practitioner, etc.
    only how much does this professional contractor need to pay to actually stand in front of someone else’s machine gun, almost surely knowing that he will be killed now? A soldier called to the army to defend his family, the country does not do this for money.
    There are fundamental differences between the draft army and the contract army, which fundamentally change the position of the army in society and its tasks. And the question of the existence of our state and Russia as a country depends on this.
    In the transition from conscription to recruitment of the army to hired, the armed defense of the country from external aggression ceases to be the business of the whole people. He is detached from solving his very first task - ensuring the existence of the country itself.
    A contract army is the absence of a mobilization reserve, which is already melting.
    but what if suddenly the state does not have the money to pay? lose the army?
    Why do you think Israel is not switching to supereffective contractors?
    Recall the year 1919, the Treaty of Versailles. defeated Germany is forbidden to have universal military duty, she was allowed to have a small army, but ... certainly a professional! those. Entente countries, having defeated Germany, decided that it needed to have a stronger army?
    on the count of all who push the topic of a contract army and outsourcing !!!

      And they always fixed it. I repeat - ALWAYS! For this, a network of military repair plants was deployed in the country where CIVIL specialists were engaged in the repair of MILITARY equipment. At these factories, only the director of the plant, and the heads of the shops (where there were several shops) were military personnel.

    I don’t understand that I don’t like “civil servants” like that. You first decide who to fight then? And what to repair, a lot of repairs in Grozny? (the entire North Caucasian Railway was clogged with destroyed equipment) and in Afghanistan? The first Chechen out of 10 armored personnel carriers in units of .... one was brought into a capable form in order to be sent to the Caucasus (this is the question of mechanics of soldiers). From a company of 18 year old conscripts, 2-3 soldiers ... the rest ......... explain to mothers why ....... why ...
    Look around, there is no such country for a long time, almost everyone serves and works for money and benefits, the tactics and strategy of fighting have changed, etc. You can recall the feats of grandfathers and great-grandfathers (you must always remember about them), but this was in another History, and this there was a "different" war. I do not want the "green" 18-19 year olds to die, I want professionals who consciously chose this to fight.

    I quote: ... "On the one hand, outsourcing is not a bad thing, because it allows a soldier to forget about distracting things unusual for a modern service, but on the other hand, outsourcing sometimes leads to a corruption plane ..." ...
    But can not be translated into Russian ??? They cluttered the Russian language with verbal slops.
    And if we talk about attracting contractors, then first of all, this is the creation of a positive image (not the image) of both the fighter and the Armed Forces, and secondly, the provision of normal material and living conditions, including the payment with which we have in Russia a big problem. From those same damned "friends" of the states, a soldier gets more than a Russian junior officer at the captain's level.
    And another good step: to provide the possibility of admission to universities (state) to free departments (most likely, after serving under a contract for 2-3 years). By the way, in the same States, the payment of studies by the Department of Defense is just one of the factors attracting young people to contract service.

      The soldier in the states on the first contract receives at
      our contractor, and so in most contract armies.
      But they have average salaries in the country 2-3 times more,
      according to their concepts, they pay them a penny.
      And we have the minimum contractual more than the national average.
      In Russia, the salaries of the military are the highest, if we take in relation to the rest of the economy.
      They just do not serve for money, especially the first contract.
