The command structure of the armed forces includes a group of very heterogeneous military specialties, differing both in the types of troops and in what kind of work is done. Depending on what specific specialty an officer has, he can either predominantly command soldiers and lower-ranking officers, or independently work with complex military equipment.

You can become an officer by enrolling in one of the many military schools. In addition, you can graduate from a military department at a civilian university, and then go to serve under a contract. Another option is to remain in the army after conscript service and receive an officer's rank after the appropriate advanced training. Discipline and responsibility, a combination of diligence with initiative, self-confidence and determination, and good health are required from an officer.

The problem of employment in its traditional sense for officers in the service is practically non-existent (although it becomes acute if an officer resigns for one reason or another). A serviceman is a person who practically does not belong to himself, he does not look for a job according to his own taste, as “in civilian life”, but serves where he is ordered, and far from always has the opportunity to influence how his professional fate is decided .

In general, the army is a structure in which there is a clear hierarchy, each person knows exactly whose orders he is obliged to carry out and whom he himself has the right to order (and orders, as you know, are not discussed). It rather strictly regulates most aspects of life and activity, there are charters, many different regulatory documents, there is a strictly defined uniform, daily routine, etc. Good officers are obtained from those who are comfortable in such conditions. For those who most of all dream of freedom and creative self-expression, it is better to look for yourself in other areas of activity.

When choosing a military profession, one cannot count on the fact that the service will always take place in peaceful conditions. Fortunately, the likelihood of a new world war is now small, but hostilities now and then occur in various "hot spots". And mostly not those who are drafted or mobilized from the reserve get there, but just those who have chosen military affairs as their main profession: contract soldiers and regular officers. An officer in combat conditions will need tremendous resistance to stress, a combination of determination with reasonable caution, as well as the ability to instantly navigate in difficult and dangerous situations. How much he will show these qualities will depend on the life - and his own, and the fighters.

The level of income of most officers in modern Russia is low, somewhat below the average salary in industry (with the exception of the highest command staff). However, this is largely compensated by the fact that an officer in the service is fully supported by the state, and outside the military unit he enjoys many social benefits.

An officer's career prospects are associated with career growth, the assignment of higher ranks, which, in addition to having a military education of the appropriate level, depends on three components.

  1. Years of service. It is impossible to immediately step from lieutenant to colonel, in each successive rank one should serve a certain period of time (in some cases, for special merits, the rank may be awarded ahead of schedule).
  2. The effectiveness of the previous service, the presence of incentives and awards, the absence of penalties, positive feedback from the higher command.
  3. The opportunity to take a position that implies the presence of a higher rank. It happens that the growth of an officer is hampered by the fact that where he serves, there are simply no vacancies that imply a higher rank (for example, no one will give the company commander the rank of colonel until the position of commander of a larger structural unit is vacated for him).

Officers, especially those serving in adverse conditions (for example, in the Far North), have an accelerated length of service, the opportunity to retire early (by the way, military pensions are significantly higher than civilian ones) and have time to make a successful career in other areas.

Ilya, based on his service experience, gives advice to soldiers and those who are going to join the army, how they can fight the "jackals" there.

Hello, my name is Ilya.

I serve in the Guards Anti-Aircraft Missile Regiment.

The division into three types of officers: a jackal (the worst type), a pofigist (they, respectively, do not care) and an officer (the bone of the army) is “traditional” and is easily understood by everyone who has served in the army. The fact is that, in my opinion, this very ratio of “asshole-dullness-man” is quite consistent with what you encounter in “citizenship”. The peculiarity of the army is that you can’t just get away from an asshole, there are disproportionately more ways for him to spoil you personally, and doing something about it, especially at the beginning of the army path, is quite problematic. I want to give some advice on how to deal with this:

The jackal always believes that he is superior to the soldier in everything, always and under any conditions, be it drill (although some zhirobas-jackals barely climb a step, not to mention the drill step), knowledge of the charter (they know excerpts of the Soviet charter, not the actual God knows how many years) or computer equipment (the folders in my monitor were erased, most likely they fell into the mouse, return it quickly!). So my first piece of advice: don't argue with an asshole. Sets a stupid task that you can complete, no matter how wild and pointless it may seem to you? Do it silently. Do not convince, do not prove, do not argue - the jackal will not appreciate. Remember, he knows better than you about everything, because he has been serving in the army for 20 years and is a captain! If you can’t do the task, say: “Yes” and don’t do it. There will be problems, but you would not have avoided them anyway.

The jackal is always looking to get to the bottom of a soldier, so watch yourself. In general, I do not advise launching yourself in the army - no one will appreciate this: neither jackals, nor officers, nor your own colleagues. But the jackals will cause the most problems, while he himself may look like a miserable piece of unshaven shit in pixel form. Believe me, it is doubly unpleasant when a greasy pig reprimands you for a dirty hemming, from which it carries you 300 meters away with a fume.

In my first outfit, I did the following: at night, when no one is watching whether you are hanging out on the bedside table, I took the internal service charter and read it from cover to cover. Then the other three. In total, each 4 times in the first month of service, the so-called KMB. And, believe me, I never regretted it. Not a single jackal was able to "mask" me with a charter, although there were attempts. According to the charter, in general, everyone around owes a soldier, you can safely use this. But, again!, first read-memorize - then use.

There are bound to be a few good, honest officers in your regiment - stick to them. Ask them for advice, ask questions. Such people will help in the service and cover from the jackal

And, for me, the most important thing is to be useful. I'm serious. If you are a useful soldier, the jackals will not touch you. You can blame them as you like, but even they understand with their spinal cord that the soldier from whom you ask for help should not be jerked off. Therefore, show your strengths - and you will be noticed. Just don't misunderstand me: I am not now calling on you to rat in favor of the jackals or to "lure" them in every possible way, otherwise there will be idiots, and I will remain to blame.

In general, here is what I am ready to say on this issue. It turned out that I didn’t really answer anything to the original article, if I didn’t confirm it, but as it turned out, it happened. The army is not a separate life, it is you who live there and, as always, you are responsible for your position, and not anyone around you, be it jackals, grandfathers, or someone else.

There are two categories of officers in the army. Some of them graduate from military educational institutions and join the troops after graduation - they are called personnel officers. Others graduate from civilian higher educational institutions and military departments attached to them. Such officers in the army are called "jackets", emphasizing their civil intelligentsia (in abusive meaning) essence.

Between these two categories there are serious differences in the personality traits of the people who make them up. Jackets are recently still civilians, with the corresponding concepts, often more pink and airy than those of personnel officers. The latter did not just study in educational institutions, but already lived in them in barracks and in collectives, therefore they know better what a person is like as a social being. They treat people differently, they know how to command and obey in a qualified manner.

And the personnel officers felt in their own skin all the delights of social inequality. They have already lived for several years in the conditions in which conscripts live in the army, when every penny is precious and the slightest improvement in the situation, any goodies are perceived as the highest good; for the sake of such petty improvements, they are ready to go to great lengths. But, most importantly, they have learned to appreciate these minor improvements and are accustomed to deprivation, which means that it is easier to influence them: encouragement and punishment will have a much greater educational impact in the case of them than in the case of snickering graduates of civilian educational institutions. This, in part, explains why career officers in practice wait longer for promotions than jackets.

For officers, either personnel officers or former conscripts are objectively preferable - both of them have already learned the army rules of conduct and have psychologically become adequate to army life.

Among the officers there is a rigid hierarchy and social inequality based on the absolute subordination of lower officers to higher ones. The officer must unconditionally obey the superior officer, show him signs of respect (military salute, etc.). The higher ones chase the lower ones, like those - their soldiers, they also punish them and scold them, like small children. The junior officer stands with his head bowed when he is scolded by a senior in rank - like a naughty boy, conscious, however, of his guilt. At the same time, career officers are more susceptible to psychological pressure than jackets, being broken (trained) even during training.

But all officers are equally affected by the deprivation of their part of the salary. The commander can deprive a part, moreover, of a rather significant amount: all additional payments and up to 50% of the basic salary - everyone already understands this method of influence. In practice, however, it is enough to simply reprimand an officer, since he is already well-trained and, in order not to be subjected to mud-slinging, will make every effort to correct the situation.

The lower in the hierarchy a military man is, the less valuable he is to society and the more he is cannon fodder; all the bumps are also pouring on him, he is made extreme in any business. After all, the distribution of responsibility in the army is built from the highest to the lowest, like moving along a chain of people with a current discharge. And, as you know, the closing circuit receives the greatest harm from the current. In our case, i.e. among officers, this is a lieutenant; goes to others in the chain, but to varying degrees.

A necessary companion of hierarchy is social inequality. In the army, even officially, it manifests itself in a lot of little things. For example, the divisional commander travels everywhere in an UAZ, and the army commander flies in a helicopter. There is, however, also an unofficial component. The higher an officer stands, the more opportunities he has to improve his material well-being through the use of his official position. The life of an officer is so fused with the service that he takes the use of subordinate resources for his own personal interests as a matter of course. And no one has questions about this. In reality, officers break the law, steal state material resources, but in fact they are given the right to do so. And the higher the status, the more opportunities for illegal earnings appear.

Thus, financially, the superior officer receives a little more than the inferior, both officially and unofficially; he also has more free time, which is an important factor in his social position. All these trifles together give a much better position and well-being, and officers, accustomed to appreciating the slightest improvement, perceive them as the highest good.

In this light, the question of the relationship between position and rank is interesting. Not only the official salary of an officer, but also its unofficial part depends on the position, since the volume and nature of the resources subordinated to the officer are determined precisely by the position held. But the attitude of soldiers, and even officers, and in general all those around it depends precisely on the rank. First, people look at shoulder straps, and only then at a position that they may not know, and never learn in the future. Interesting incidents are associated with this, when, on the one hand, a junior officer, and even a warrant officer, by virtue of his position is authorized to command captains and majors, not to mention lieutenants, and, on the other hand, these very subordinate officers refuse to obey him or obey very reluctantly.

The main task of the officers is to organize the functioning of the army and solve the tasks facing it. Obviously, this mission is much wider than just command. In addition to command, it is the education of soldiers and subordinates, as well as the performance of work that requires high qualifications. Moreover, different officers may have a narrow specialization in one of the indicated areas of work and have practically no contact with other areas. An officer can be both field (combat), i.e. the commander of the unit, and the staff, busy working with papers, and even a scientist or analyst. The officer can also work with equipment, engage in its maintenance, development and creation. In general, an officer is not just a commander.

But, no matter what the officer does, he has a higher social status than ordinary people. He also always has fighters or civilians under his command. He is a privileged citizen of his society, having a high status due to the exceptional importance of the role he performs - directly ensuring the survival of society by any means available. The officer has carte blanche for the legal use of weapons, for the commission of actions prohibited by mere mortals, up to murder and admission to special objects. And he is aware of his exceptional position, feels some pride in him. He treats civilians with condescension, either despising them, or haughtily and nobly, like an older brother, depending on the nature and degree of development of the intellect.

Ultimately, the officer's task is to ensure the survival of society and the preservation of the existing social organization by extreme methods and means. This is the positive (in the sense, not good, but objectively favorable for society) side of the extreme manifestation of social struggle. The officer thus stands at the forefront of the social struggle for the self-preservation of the existing social organization of society.

At the same time, an officer - every officer - is a person not only because of the presence of a certain high social status; he still must have a certain inner core and be guided in his activities not only by orders, but also by ideological considerations, at least, be responsible for subordinate soldiers. To do this, he must have something that gives him the opportunity, in case of inconsistency of orders with the interests of the people, the honor of an officer and a soldier, to refuse to carry out such an order. Roughly speaking, an officer must have his own opinion and honor and defend them even at the cost of his life and position. For this, he is endowed with a special exclusive social status, when even higher-ranking officers cannot simply step over his opinion. In fact, he was given the right to rest his horn and stand his ground. Of course, such an outbreak could cost him his career, but that's later, and here and now, at a momentous moment for the Motherland, he can and must express his position and defend it by all available means. By the very rules of selection, training, and the quality of human material, officers must be superior to soldiers.

In modern Russia, few of the officers have their own inner core. The vast majority, without blinking an eye, will begin to kill their compatriots if such an order comes. There are people of principle, but they are very few.

You yourself will be a good warrior and an honest defender of the Motherland. Army aphorisms, court of honor, rules of life, old truths, the basis and essence of military service, attitude towards superiors and oneself.

The first and main duty of a soldier is loyalty to the Sovereign, the Emperor and the Fatherland. Without this quality, he is not fit for military service.

6. Be afraid to violate your duty - this is forever, you will lose your good name.

8. Be polite and humble in dealing with all people.

9. The best part of courage is caution.

Attitude towards superiors and oneself

1. Always remember that you are an officer.

6. If you are older in rank, and in terms of the distribution of posts you will be subordinate to the younger, you are obliged to fulfill everything, the orders of the person placed over you, without any dispute.

7. If you come on vacation for three days or less, then, without appearing in person, you must certainly send your vacation ticket to the commandant's office. Arriving for more than three days, it is necessary to appear personally to the commandant.

8. At the end of the vacation period, he is obliged to appear again at the Commandant's Office or inform the Commandant's Office in an open letter: “This date I left for the place of my service” (Signature).

22. Do not rush to get on a short footing with a person whom you did not know enough.

23. Avoid "you", which gives a reason and the right to familiarities of bad taste, an excuse on the rights of friendship to scold you, interfere in your affairs, say vulgarity, rudeness, etc.

24. Often the elder, drunk, offers to go with him. no misters". However, the next day, be diplomatic:

either speak to him in “you”, or wait until he is the first to address you in “you”. In a word, tact is a necessary condition in order not to get into an awkward position or a mess.

25. Avoid stories and scandals. Do not act as an uninvited witness: by supporting one, you will make an enemy in the other - a double-edged sword. Neutrality is a means even of great powers; a means to maintain good relations with all,

26. A person who has made enemies, no matter how smart, kind, honest and truthful he is, dies almost inevitably, since enemies in society are always active, friends are passive; they only sympathize, regret, sigh, but do not fight for the perishing, fearing for their own fate,

27. Avoid cash accounts with comrades. Money always ruins relationships.

28. Do not make debts: do not dig holes for yourself. Live within your means. Drop false selfishness. It is immoral to make debts without being able to pay them; otherwise - do not get into someone else's pocket ...

29. Himself, if you can, help a friend financially, but personally avoid taking it, as this lowers your dignity.

32. Do not take personally insulting remarks, witticisms of ridicule said after, which often happens on the streets and in public places. Be above it. Leave - you will not lose, but you will get rid of the scandal.

33. Consider each decisive step. It is impossible to correct a mistake, but it is difficult to make amends. "Measure seven times, cut once."

34. Be attentive before a quarrel than yield after a quarrel.

35. At a critical moment, friends will not help: they are powerless in military service, bound by discipline and obedience to superiors.

36. If you can’t say anything good about someone, then refrain from saying bad things, if you know.

37. Do not neglect anyone's advice - listen. The right to follow him or not will remain with you.

38. Be able to take good advice from another -. an art no less than giving good advice to oneself.

39. Avoid military conversations with anyone outside of duty, especially during wartime.

40. Be careful in choosing acquaintances: be guided not only by their education, but also by their social position in society. "Tell me who you know and I'll tell you who you are."

41. In the presence of batmen (in general, in the presence of a servant), refrain from speaking on sensitive topics. This habit must be firmly eradicated in oneself and always remembered. Unfortunately, most people forget this. Meanwhile, the servant listens especially sensitively and looks closely at the life of their masters, takes note of everything and often spreads ridiculous rumors to the homes of acquaintances (through the servants).

42. A person who uses a batman must monitor his health, behavior and must not allow illegal treatment with him; to give orderlies for the service of another person is, of course, prohibited.

43. Responsibility for non-compliance with the uniform of batmen and behavior falls on the officer under whom the batman is a member.

44. Do not use the services of someone else's orderly without prior permission, do not order anything - not tactfully.

45. After graduating from college, continue to study. In the knowledge of the art of war is your strength. There is no time to learn in battles, but you have to apply what you have learned. Do not lose sight of the fact that it is necessary to know all kinds of weapons.

46. ​​An officer in all cases of his life and service submits a written report: on his arrival in the regiment, on his departure on a business trip, vacation and return from such, on taking up or surrendering his position, on illness and recovery, on clashes and cases in the service or outside it, about all sorts of petitions, and so on.

47. Reports are written concisely, to the point and without titles to the boss.

48. The signature of an officer, in whatever rank he may be, must always be legible and without any flourishes.

49. Military officials are guided by the same rules as officers.

13. The army is an oak that protects the homeland from storms.

Rules of life

1. Do not take care of the regimental ladies (in the vulgar sense). Do not create dirt in your regimental family, in which you will have to serve for decades. Such novels always end tragically.

2. Never express opinions about women. Remember, women at all times have been the cause of discord and the greatest misfortunes, not only of individuals, but of entire empires.

10. Be guided in life by instinct, a sense of justice and a duty of decency.

11. Be able not only to think and reason, but also to be silent in time and hear everything.

13. Be always on the alert and do not loosen up.

14. Although servicemen are allowed to engage in literary activities, they are not entitled to sign their articles with the designation of their rank and position (Circus. Head. Piece 1908 No. 61).

15. For printing, military personnel are subject not only to the general criminal procedure, but can be brought to court by the society of officers, and those not subject to this court - to disciplinary responsibility, inclusive until dismissal from service in a disciplinary procedure (Prik. on military. Ved. 1908 No. 310).

16. To catch other people in lies means to harm yourself and them.

17. Try to keep your words soft in the dispute, and the arguments are firm. Try not to annoy the enemy, but to convince him.

18. It is not customary for officers to dance at public masquerades.

19. Entering a public place, be careful, if the audience is there without any top dress and without caps, then you must do the same.

Walking arm in arm with a lady "the officer is not released from saluting according to the charter.

27. The cap must be worn in accordance with the charter, and the overcoat is always fastened with all buttons.

28. Needless to say, an officer must obey in public places all the rules that exist for the public.

29 In general, the behavior of an officer should pay attention to those around him with his correctness and foresight.

About the court of honor

1. Do not forget that in order to preserve the dignity of military service, officers who are seen in disapproving behavior or actions that are incompatible with the concepts of military honor and valor of an officer's rank or exposing an officer's lack of rules of morality and nobility are subjected to the court of a society of officers.
