August 2 - Airborne Forces Day

87
Today is 2 August, which means, with the holiday, winged infantry! Happy Airborne troops, the country! Those born on the Voronezh land in the distant 1930 year, the Airborne Forces celebrate not just a holiday, but also a remarkable anniversary - their 85 anniversary. And this is an excellent occasion to remind the "friends" of Russia, what the Airborne Forces are, and what kind of people were forged in the Airborne Forces for history the existence of this kind of troops of the Armed Forces.

August 2 - Airborne Forces Day


To begin with - the official data on the structure of the Airborne Forces. Today, the Airborne Forces, commanded by Colonel-General Vladimir Shamanov, are represented by the 7 Guards Airborne Assault (Mining) Red Banner Order of the Kutuzov 2 13th Division, the 76 Guards Paratrooper-Assault Chernigov Red Aid Combat Assault Unit. - the Svir Red Banner Order of the Kutuzov Order of the 98 degree by the division, the 2 Guards Red Banner Order of the Kutuzov Order of the 106 degree by the Airborne Division. As part of the Airborne Forces - 2 airborne assault brigade: 4-I, 11-I, 31-I and 56-I. Plus, the 83 th separate Guards Order of Kutuzov, the Order of Alexander Nevsky, a special task regiment. The 45 of the OPSN is, by the way, the youngest military unit of the Airborne Forces, the formation of which began in 45. The support structure is the 1994-th separate Guards regiment of communications of the Airborne Forces.

Honor, valor, self-confidence, readiness for self-sacrifice, readiness to crush the enemy for decades determined and define the essence of the Airborne Forces today, that is why the Airborne Forces are not just a kind of troops, this is a whole army planet, clearly paying special attention to themselves.

The first commander of the Airborne Forces was a native of the Saratov Region, Vasily Afanasyevich Glazunov. Vasily Afanasyevich passed a big army way from the ordinary army of the Russian Empire to the general-lieutenant, Twice Hero of the Soviet Union. The command of troops, Vasily Glazunov, began in the most difficult period - in August 1941, when the Nazis continued to occupy more and more Soviet territories, inflicting major defeats on the Red Army. However, even then, the Airborne Forces fighters were able to distinguish themselves by successful operations behind enemy lines, when the garrisons of the German fascist troops were crushed as a result of lightning-fast raids by Soviet winged infantry.

Under the command of Vasily Glazunov, at the beginning of 1942, the Vyazemsky airborne operation was prepared and conducted, during which more than 15 thousands of fighters were parachuted to the enemy’s rear. Despite the extremely unfortunate outcome of the entire Rzhev-Vyazma offensive operation of the Red Army, the actions of the Glazunov paratroopers in the rear of the enemy were quite successful. According to one of the German officers who took part in the battles of Vyazma and Rzhev, “the Russian troops in our rear felt at home, imposing exhausting battles.”

In the years of the Great Patriotic War, the Airborne Forces fighters took part in hundreds of operations on various fronts and directions from Stalingrad to Budapest, from Moscow to Königsberg and Berlin. However, the Soviet winged infantry began to show itself even before the start of the big war. One of these "pre-war" operations is the airborne operation in Bessarabia, which by that time was occupied by Romania.



On June 28, 1940, through the commander of the 209th heavy air brigade, the 204th airborne brigade of Colonel Joseph Gubarevich received an assignment for ejection. At 4:00, the brigade personnel were concentrated on the runway, and at around 9:00 the loading of aircraft began. The command then took a serious risk, because before the start of the operation, reconnaissance of the landing area was not carried out, and transport aircraft were not covered by a fighter aviation. By 9.30 a.m., 99 TB-3 planes with 1422 armed paratroopers on board took off, and at about 14:30 p.m. paratroopers landed 10 km north of Bolgrad.



After the Bessarabian airborne operation, the command made conclusions from the mistakes and omissions made, which served as the beginning of the formation of a special tactics and strategy for the landing of troops to the rear of the enemy.

And after the Great Patriotic War, virtually no armed conflict was complete without the participation of winged infantry. These are the fighting in Afghanistan, the Chechen campaigns, the operation to force Georgia to peace. One of the striking examples of lightning and successful actions of Russian paratroopers was the famous march of airborne troops on Pristina (Kosovo, Serbia) in 1999 year. The actions of the paratroopers allowed to seize the Pristina airport Slatina, ahead of the NATO military, who tried to take control of the entire territory of the republic in the course of military operations against Belgrade.



Unfortunately, the then authorities of the country could not take full advantage of the tremendous success of the airborne troops to protect the interests of Russia in the Balkans, but, as they say, this is a completely different story, and I don’t want to think about politics on a holiday.

Another episode from the history of the new Russia, emphasizing the courage and heroism of the Airborne Forces fighters - this is a battle at the height of 776 in February-March of 2000. This is a battle with the militant group of Khattab near Ulus-Kert in the Shatoy district of Chechnya of the legendary 6 Company of the 2 Battalion of the 104 Guards Parachute-Regiment of the 76-th Guards Airborne Division under the command of the airborne division under the command of the air force, under the control of the air force, under the control of the air force, under the command of


Mark Evtyukhin


90 Russian paratroopers then resisted about 2,5 thousands of terrorists. During the battles 84 of the paratrooper were killed, the losses of the militants were at least 400 "man." The feat of the Pskov paratroopers under Ulus-Kert is the personification of courage and resilience. On this day, I would like to honor the memory of the fallen airborne fighters and express admiration for their heroism and courage.



All active military servicemen and veterans of the Airborne Forces “Military Review” congratulate with the holiday, which itself managed to become a real event in the festive calendar of the Fatherland!

          Again, the blue heights are cut into flaps
          Those in whom the heart is without fear, those who are with heaven on "you."
          Again the sky in the “daisies” of their tight domes.
          Who else is so brave without question, without words,
          Can take a step into the blue abyss, only a step -
          For the sky to rock them in streams of hands?
          Their motto is also short and sounds like an order -
          If the motherland needs, then "NOBODY EXCEPT US!».
          In their open souls there is no falsehood, no lies,
          Life changes abruptly, bends are not afraid,
          Their "Winged Infantry" is called for nothing,
          On their blue berets - by the corner - the dawn
          And the whitening dome is as pure as the soul ...
          If Russia needs it, then they’re in a hurry again,
          They rush into the sky again to fall down

          And - "NOBODY EXCEPT US!"- reaffirm the motto!

        Major General Margelov at the Victory Parade on June 24, 1945

        During the Great Patriotic War, airborne fighters took part in hundreds of operations on various fronts and directions from Stalingrad to Budapest, from Moscow to Konigsberg and Berlin.

        The uncle, Alexei Ivanovich, was landing on Koenigsberg. Kingdom to him heavenly...

        Blue was splashing, splashing,
        On the vests spilled on the berets.
        Even in the heart of blue the lost
        Spilled with its alluring color.

      But it turns out that on August 2, 1930, 12 people landed on the Voronezh training ground! And now it costs 50 thousand under the gun. And in stock? "Don't hit - rejoice, hit - be proud!"

      Congratulations on Airborne Forces to everyone who saw the canopy of the parachute above their heads, remembers how the wind whistles in the slings and knows how to dock the AK.

      Health to veterans, honor and respect to you!
      Glory to the Airborne Forces!

      For some reason Major is not here today. I'll try for him:

      Canopy and lines
      machine gun in hand
      the kick was good
      - thank you battalion commander!

      I fly and shoot
      I sit down and again
      "Forward, landing party!"
      our battalion commander is yelling

      We suffered a lot
      flew, crawled
      But we know why
      let's go to this company

      Broke a brick
      as always with a fist
      "Stand and be afraid!"
      Washington regional committee

      With a sweet smile
      the battalion commander comes in
      "Comrade Obama!
      Two steps back!"

      It’s a long way from Major’s syllable, but that’s how it is)

      I'll raise a glass to the Airborne Forces,
      I'll smell the black bread...
      For the departed, nature will build a temple
      From the clouds in the sky.


      To those who remain, I will also say my toast:
      Health and Long Life!
      And “in civilian life” without leaving his post,
      You serve our fatherland.

      Damn, I wanted to say something more solemn, but it turns out to be banal. So it’s simple: Happy Holidays! Landing mission! I just watched Shamanov’s performance (I froze again - what can I call it, evaluate it, or say something else...), in short, Humanity! Once again, HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!
