As the Ukrainian border guards during the Sea Breeze-2016 Odessa port "took control"
It is reported that at the time of the landing there was also a legend of this stage of the exercise. It turns out that the Ukrainian maritime border guards were supposed to "take control of strategically important facilities, including ports and hydraulic structures." At the same time, according to the command, the landing party had "minimal weapons" - diving knives.
Apparently, the training of Ukrainian border guards is so great that in fact, without weapons and in the amount of 8 people they can take control of entire ports! ..
The report of the State Border Service of Ukraine says that the parachuting border guards "had the opportunity to use hand-to-hand combat techniques" to successfully neutralize the enemy.
As training sessions, jumping into the pool from a height of 5 and 10 m, as well as training on land were previously performed.
From the message of the State Border Service of Ukraine:
The border guards did the exercise well. This means that the two-month preparation that preceded the responsible jumps was effective.
The program of the current "Sea Breeze-2016" provides for many elements, the implementation of which has not been practiced before. So, the maritime border guards are the only ones who have worked out such a complex and dangerous element. Moreover, the element appeared in the plan of the exercises precisely thanks to the initiative of the border department.
Attention is drawn to the fact that after the landing, boats approached the border guards department and took everyone on board, without allowing them to "take control of the Odessa port and hydrotechnical facilities."
