    Judging by the completed task, the elite unit of the Lithuanian army special forces “Aitvaras” is an ordinary construction battalion or janitors for American soldiers! But how pathetic ... laughing

      Translators damn ... Aitvaras in Lithuanian pagan mythology is a magical spirit that secretly penetrates all the hidden nooks and crannies. Pagans always asked him for intercession before other gods.

      The unit itself is very professionally trained. Its creation was supervised by the commander Tuchkus, the legend of the Afghan war, was introduced to the Hero, but fought with the staff in the canteen, and the Hero was replaced by a Star. From Afghanistan, he brought two orders of the Red Star, in the company position. He stood at the origins of the creation of the Lithuanian army, but then it was trampled on for ideological reasons. The official unit in Goura was engaged in construction work and other things, in the corresponding camp, Aitvaras performed special operations together with the marina. Sometimes alone. From Bamiyana and to the south. Good specialists.

        Come on, we’re kidding, in the end! The article is written just like that - they cleaned the trash for the Americans, but there isn’t even a word about the Taliban! And then they are not independent in their decisions what the Americans will say , then they do it - they said they’re shitting to clean and they are cleaning up - why did you need to create special forces of such a country that is not independent in its decisions ??? They would create a military-clearing company and there would be more sense, and less budget expenditures!

          Oh well you


          So I understand, for the sake of objectivity .... he is special and in Africa special. Young people are in perfect physical shape, he thinks he can turn the world around, and the truth of life turns out to be different ... then the longing for the real thing that happened to him in the most difficult moments of his life. Nausea from the hypocrisy of everyday life, from that and friends they do not have civilians, only front-line. And politics .... let everyone be his patriot, Russian Russian, Lithuanian Lithuanian, German German. Love for one’s Fatherland does not give rise to hatred of someone else’s. And if they will be similar in their fatherly love, then they will find more mutual understanding on this than hate.

          And the question of special forces in the Baltic armies is a priority. This is the defensive concept of NATO, specialists, the cheapest type of consumable. They go there willingly, usually prepared in advance, with more or less brainwashed. They can equally be thrown both behind the lines of a potential enemy and to repulse the attack, and even disperse the demonstration. Two years ago, in all the Baltic countries, exercises were held in the city, the scenario was exactly the suppression of civil discontent.
