Features of service in the Navy

Every year, thousands of young people come to the recruiting part, where you can take on military units. To replace tranquil civil life comes the harsh, military. And the main fear of all recruits is, of course, obscurity. Especially little known about such kind of service as in the Navy.

What is the Navy

The Navy is a big part of naval forces of the state. The main tasks of the Navy are securing the borders of the state, protection from attack and penetration of the territory and the presence in the waters of the state (demonstration of the flag, etc.). The composition of the Navy of the Russian Federation includes: underwater troops, ships, troops, coastal troops and naval aviation. Underwater troops intended for sudden attacks on continental and enemy targets, as well as intelligence. Flooded troops provide protection for the carriage of troops, with the danger of mines and help underwater vessels when they return to base. The main function of coastal forces guard the coastal areas. A naval aircraft designed to counter and retaliate flooding and coastal opponents.

Specificity of service in the Navy

Service in the Navy is markedly different from in the army. No, this does not apply to any General concepts: the period is the same as everywhere – 12 months age of recruits from 18 to 27 years. But there are some differences. First, it concerns the presence of bullying, and in the case of the fleet – its absence. This can be explained as follows. Living conditions on the ship are much more severe than on land. This is natural, because young people accounted for almost all the time on the ship, unable to go ashore. In addition, each soldier there is a certain circle of tasks for all the service – for example, one monitors the situation on the horizon: you can't see any other ships, enemy ships; the other for operating the vessel, and the third to hold. When everyone is busy with their work, on a variety of bullying and ustavshiy (oppression of the soldiers by the officers) of the time does not happen. This especially occurs when the ship is at sea. A joint performance of their duties ensures reliable operation of the ship.

But there are moments when the ship approached the shore. Then the soldiers live in barracks on shore, and their only duties be cleaning the boat (scrubbing the deck) and keep yourself in decent form. Such breaks between gates at sea are not uncommon, and they are quite long – after all, each such output requires a certain financial cost, which sometimes is lacking.
