On June 1, 1998, by order of the Commander of the Railway Troops of the Russian Federation 171, the Veteran of the Railway Troops badge was established. This sign became the first official symbol that marked the beginning of the development of a strict departmental heraldic system in the Federal Service of the Railway Troops of the Russian Federation. A year earlier, as part of the preparations for the 150th anniversary of the military railway workers coming in 2001, the FSF command decided to start a comprehensive

The Navy is the name of the Russian Navy. It is the successor to the Navy of the USSR and the Navy of the Russian Empire. Navy vehicle license plate code -45. Name There are two spellings of the name of the fleet Russian Federation Navy, all words capitalized Russian Federation Navy. The first option is recommended by specialists of the Internet portal Gramota.ru,

They do not emit a warlike roar, they do not sparkle with a polished surface, they are not decorated with chased coats of arms and plumes, and quite often they are generally hidden under jackets. However, today, without this armor, unsightly in appearance, it is simply unthinkable to send soldiers into battle or ensure the safety of VIPs. Body armor is clothing that prevents bullets from entering the body and therefore protects a person from being shot. It is made from materials that scatter

In the conditions of modern combat, a soldier is exposed to various risks, due to which he may lose the opportunity to continue combat work, get injured or die. As a result, a fighter needs protective equipment that can reduce or completely eliminate the risks. Over the decades, various means of protection have been created to improve the safety of soldiers. In recent years, there have also been proposals to create full-fledged protective systems. In our country, this direction

As you know, each element of the uniform of the military and security forces either has a practical purpose, or exists as a kind of symbol, and shoulder straps are no exception. Shoulder straps, like all other elements of military uniforms, contain a rich history. However, there is a very popular misconception that shoulder straps as an element of military uniform are descendants of knightly armor, namely special metal shoulder plates that protect the shoulders.

Shoulder straps are special shoulder badges that are necessary in order to distinguish between military ranks and positions. They are used in the Armed Forces, police and other paramilitary groups. That is why many are interested in such a question How to sew a shoulder strap on a tunic It would seem that this is very simple to do, but in fact it is not quite so. History of epaulettes For the first time, epaulettes were introduced by Peter I around 1683-1699. They used to help

There are several ways to attach shoulder straps to a shirt. Simple ways There are several such options for a match, for a pin, for edging, for a paper clip. Clip attachment. In order to understand how to attach shoulder straps to a shirt with this method, you must follow the following steps step by step. First of all, the insignia themselves and the shirt must be carefully ironed. This action is performed so that they lie better on the shirt. At

A soldier's epaulets are a kind of calling card, that is, one glance at the shoulder insignia is enough to understand what rank a soldier has. The stars on the shoulder straps give enough information about which officers the soldier belongs to. However, shoulder straps and stars did not immediately acquire a modern look. In pre-revolutionary times, they were interspersed with additional stripes, which were called stripes. Only later did the stars on shoulder straps become

Since May 23, 1994, in connection with the issued decree of the Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Federation, wearing insignia left over from the Soviet army was considered illegal. From that moment in Russia began the formation of its own system of national symbols in relation to insignia in the RF Armed Forces. The history of the appearance of insignia Starting from the 16-17 centuries, in the archery troops, the commander differed from the private in the cut of his uniform, a different type of weapon and a cane along which

False shoulder straps, a derivative of false shoulder straps, are an analogue of shoulder straps on which stars are sewn. They differ from the standard ones in that they are used in the field, since in the course of military exercises or in a real combat situation it is necessary to act quickly and swiftly, and during such actions stars can simply fly off shoulder straps. Despite the fact that every military man has spare stars, no one needs extra losses anyway. Besides

Ship ranks, as well as in the ground forces, are assigned according to how much the soldier has the ability and desire to take charge of the area entrusted to him. All ranks of the Navy are significantly different from similar land ranks. This is due to a number of events that took place in the history of Russia. Major changes took place in 1917, in connection with the revolutionary events. In the period 1922-1991 during the existence of the Soviet fleet. At the time of creation

Shoulder straps and ranks in the Russian army were created in order to clearly delineate duties between the military. The higher the status, the more responsibility is assigned to the soldier who was awarded the rank. Shoulder straps play an identification role, that is, they create a visual representation of a military man, namely what position he occupies, as well as his military rank. Shoulder straps and ranks in the army play a very important role, and for different troops they have different external

Each type and type of troops has its own attributes. In addition to the battle banner and chevrons, the concept of distinctive signs includes shoulder straps. It is by this accessory that one can determine not only the rank of a soldier, but also his belonging to one or another army. However, it is very difficult for an unprepared person to do this. Today we will try to understand the colors and lettering on the shoulder straps of military personnel and cadets of the Russian army, as well as law enforcement agencies. Shoulder straps

We will have to start the story about the introduction of insignia in the Soviet army with some general questions. In addition, a short digression into the history of the Russian state will be useful in order not to formulate empty references to the past. The epaulettes themselves are a kind of product that is worn on the shoulders in order to indicate the position or rank, as well as the type of troops and service affiliation. This is carried out in several ways by fastening straps, stars, making gaps, chevrons.

As in any structure, there is a certain hierarchy in the Russian army. In this case, the pyramid represents military positions and their corresponding army ranks. At the same time, shoulder straps are provided as distinctive signs on the uniform of military personnel. Today we’ll talk about what military ranks are present in the Russian army, what are their main differences, how are the stars on shoulder straps and how many years to serve as a colonel. Types, classification of titles

Regardless of the number of evaders, which is recorded annually after the completion of draft campaigns, at all times there were enough guys who would like to devote their lives to the army craft. There are usually two tendencies here. career development. The first is to remain in the army under a contract after military service. However, under such a combination of circumstances, one cannot count on an officer's rank. An alternative is to enter a higher military educational institution.

Black berets, black death The nicknames of these fighters look rather gloomy and unfriendly, indeed, when meeting with such soldiers, the enemy will immediately stop thinking about easy money. The Marine Corps of Russia today is talking about these brave and courageous warriors. Let's look into history, find out what it's like to be a Marine and what an honor it is, and also touch on modern military events. The history of the creation of the Marine Corps of the Russian Federation has been leading its history for more than three

The military rank in the modern army is a complex hierarchical relationship between military personnel, enshrined in law and military regulations. A certain rank should be awarded to absolutely any soldier, regardless of his education, occupation or length of service. Even a young man who was drafted into the ranks of the RF Armed Forces is listed as a private. This gradation makes it possible to distribute the rights and obligations of the entire contingent to ensure manageability in the case of conducting real

The modern Russian army has a complex hierarchical structure based on the subordination of the lower levels to the higher ones. Unconditional obedience within the limits of the military regulations is determined by law, and violation of the order is punishable by a military court. In order to effectively carry out management activities, the hierarchical system is implemented by assigning a certain military rank to each serviceman. Already at the very beginning of the conscription service, the young man receives the rank of private. Highest rank other than Supreme

The shoulder straps of the tsarist army of 1914 are rarely mentioned in feature films and historical books. Meanwhile, this is an interesting object of study in the imperial age, during the reign of Tsar Nicholas II, uniforms were an object of art. Before the start of the First World War, the distinctive signs of the Russian army differed significantly from those that are used now. They were brighter and contained more information, but at the same time did not have the functionality were easily visible both in the field

Shoulder straps are part of the clothes of a soldier, and the location of the stars on the shoulder straps is considered to be a distinction in rank between colleagues. However, it is very important to know how far the stars should be on this part of the uniform, since punctuality, discipline and strict adherence to instructions play a huge role in the army. The appearance of a soldier must always be impeccable. The placement of stars on shoulder straps according to certain regulations also contributes to

Military personnel in the course of their activities have the opportunity to show heroism, professional knowledge, valor, courage. The experience and skills of those who gave military service a huge part of his life, especially appreciated. As a sign of gratitude and respect, various medals are established by the Ministry of Defense or public organizations. On Defender of the Fatherland Day, on the proposal of the command of the unit, an active or former serviceman may receive a veteran of the RF Armed Forces medal as a reward.

In 2002, the association Union of Paratroopers was born in Russia. It combines not only the military units of the Airborne Forces, it is most likely a partnership and brotherhood of those who valiantly defended the interests of the Motherland on its territory and beyond. It can be said that veterans of the elite troops of the Airborne Forces, the marines, and special forces form the backbone of the organization represented. They consider the purpose of their activity to be assistance in protecting the rights of servicemen, especially those who were wounded during

The Russian Marine Corps has existed for over 300 years. For the first time such references to such units refer to the Northern War in 1705. Until 1917, they were called naval soldiers. To date, it is still an important part of the army, which has its own distinctive signs and anthem. A bit of history The first division of the Navy was designed to deliver fast strikes from the sea during the war with Sweden. Initially it was a relatively small unit,

Many people who are ignorant of military affairs may wonder what kind of troops there are in the Russian army. The answer here is very simple Russian units include elite troops, ground units, navy, aviation. Each part performs its own function. For extensive units of the fleet, aviation, ground forces, there are support departments, such as air defense, artillery. Many parts are intertwined. The regiments began to come to the modern look after the collapse of the Russian Empire.

The military uniform of the armed forces of the Russian Federation has always been distinguished by some features. They are classified by color and purpose. A military uniform can be designed for daily use, for field activities and for festive occasions. All these types of clothing are also divided into summer and winter options. The Ministry of Defense has carefully worked out this issue, detailing the orders on this aspect of the life of military personnel. The case concerned

Relations in the army must be strictly regulated. This requirement stems from at least two considerations. The first is that personnel is a quasi-group organized according to some common features. Psychologists say that if such a group is left to itself, then conflicts in the relationship will soon arise. The second statement is more weighty. The army should be not only numerous, but also functional and manageable.

The armed forces for any state are the guarantor of its security and inviolability of territorial borders. In Russia, the army organizes its activities on the basis of certain normative documents, these are Federal Laws, Government Resolutions, Presidential Decrees, as well as local resolutions of executive authorities in the regions. Thanks to a unified legal system, it is possible to effectively manage a multi-thousand contingent, distributing common tasks and promptly resolving security issues.

As long as the soldier has not retired from the reserve and is on the list of personnel of the unit, he is guided by the general military regulations. Certain norms for a serviceman have been developed in the event of his temporary stay outside the unit. But, as you know, the lack of control necessarily leads to the violation of all the rules, and the volume of these violations grows like an avalanche. Therefore, in any garrison, as a mandatory event, the organization of patrols is provided, which is conducted in places

Many articles, even from legally savvy specialists, are devoted to various ways to avoid military service. It is gratifying that the proportion of conscripts who are ready to cross the line of the law is quite small. Most of the guys are not only aware of the need to fulfill their civic duty, but also consider it their duty to spend a year in the army as a real soldier who would be an excellent student of combat training, selflessly served the Motherland, was in good standing with officers and became the pride of his

To achieve maximum effectiveness in the military activities of the army, it is necessary to develop a set of rules that would cover all areas, allowing each soldier to determine his rights and powers in each specific situation. This understanding was reached even under Peter I, not without reason he is considered the founder of the introduction of military regulations. Although, in fairness, it should be noted that the history of military regulations in tsarist Russia goes back to the 16th century, when the Boyar sentence was adopted by order of Ivan the Terrible

Many elements of the uniform of the Marine Corps, approved in the modern Russian army, migrated from the times of the USSR, but even in those distant times, not everything was so simple. Over the entire period of its existence, the marines have dressed in different clothes, so it is convenient to follow the transformation of the form in parallel with the history of the troops. As a separate and independent branch of the armed forces, the USSR Marine Corps was created according to the order of the commander of the Navy in 1940. And initially

Many conscripts want to go through the school of life, realizing that this is simply necessary. AT recent times the popularity of military craft has increased significantly. Reforms in the army had a significant impact on the comfort of service. Despite this, in almost all parts they honor the customs and traditions inherited from the older generations. This is especially true for the end of the service. The end of any school is associated with certain experiences, and the end of the school of life is the moment to which the guy

For military service at all times there has been a certain set of laws aimed at increasing efficiency in the conduct of hostilities, guard duty, as well as order in interpersonal relationships. This set of laws is combined into a charter, which is the main legislative document for a soldier. But since all issues of military service cannot be concentrated in a common document, there is a division of charters by type. In particular, two of them are defined in the modern army

The army, to one degree or another, concerns every citizen, therefore, willy-nilly, people are aware of it. But after all, the army is a too generalized and abstract concept, which includes tanks and footcloths, nuclear weapons and stars on shoulder straps, and much more. In order to streamline troops by type, establish a certain hierarchy and divide the territory of the state into controlled areas, there is a special term organizational structure of the armed forces of the Russian Federation. With his help, today we

In matters of national security, there can be no regimes. Sovereignty and inviolability must remain at the highest level every minute of the year. To ensure reliable protection, the state is obliged to maintain an active powerful army, ready at any moment to repel an attack by an external enemy. Military activity is a complex process that does not stop day or night. Even when the personnel, it would seem, are resting, there are duty officers, guards, patrols,

The army is perhaps the most numerous institution that is considered to be regularly functioning. If all those liable for military service, including those in the reserve, are added to the contingent currently in service, then more than half of all Russian citizens. Naturally, such a size of the armed forces will be achieved only as a last resort, when military aggression from another state is inevitable, but even the existing military personnel, of whom there are hundreds of thousands, must be centrally

In Russian legislation, a number of documents establish the need to provide military personnel. In general, this concept is quite flexible, since it is necessary to take into account all the rights of a citizen who is in military service in order to list all the components of allowance. Therefore, the provision is divided into several categories: monetary allowance; clothing provision; medical care; For each category

In 2014, the combat equipment of the Russian army team was replenished with a new accessory. An item with a complex foreign name, a travel bag, entered the army standard along with new equipment. From reticule to toilet bag Necessaire translated from French means necessary. So in the West they call a small travel case, which has several compartments for placing toilet items in them. The thing is very convenient and necessary, especially in field conditions. Story

Considering all the stages of the creation of the Russian armed forces, it is necessary to delve deeply into history, and although during the time of the principalities there is no question of Russian empire and even more so about the regular army, the birth of such a thing as defense capability begins precisely from this era.
