The army is perhaps the largest institution that is considered to be regularly functioning. If we add to the contingent currently in service all those liable for military service, including those in the reserves, then more than half of all will be covered. Russian citizens. Naturally, the armed forces will reach such a size 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 managed, because a strict hierarchy and a clear sequence of actions in any situation is the quintessence of all army activities .
A set of rules and laws, which has been developed and modified over the years, defines all types of relationships for military personnel, guides their actions, and prescribes responsibilities. We are talking about the military regulations, the first document with which military activity begins. In order to ensure effective learning rules, the charter is divided into structural elements, representing a kind of reference book, which briefly describes the main provisions in the form of separate articles.
Structure of the military regulations
Military regulations, how normative document, is presented in a single text approved by order of the President. It consists of four parts, each of which defines its own sphere of activity for military personnel.
- The Charter of the Guard and Garrison Service of the RF Armed Forces touches on all issues related to the protection of material assets. Here the duties of the person taking guard duty are prescribed, and penalties for various violations are established. The activities of a sentry are always associated with increased vigilance, so this section of the charter is considered the most strict of all.
- The internal service charter is the norm for all personnel. Each civilian employee upon employment receives a set functional responsibilities, the same can be said about the military man. IN single document everything related to the duties of the military is collected, and the rules are defined for all positions and ranks. This charter contains provisions for organizing the maintenance of the barracks, duty, and detachments.
- Relationships between military personnel of different ranks are regulated disciplinary regulations, this is the only document that remains valid even after retirement. Once a civilian puts on the uniform, his behavior must comply with the articles of the charter.
- Drill training, weapons handling techniques and other elements are contained in the drill regulations. For conducting military maneuvers, this document serves as a kind of guidance, because only soldiers with excellent bearing, who have gone through all stages of training, can form mobile effective groups of strategic importance.
Guard service and its charter
The latest version of this charter was published in 2015. In its content, it contains guidelines for the performance of garrison commandant and guard services, and this charter, in addition, normalizes the conduct of all garrison activities provided for in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. All are subject to the specified document structural units through the Ministry of Defense, including civilians serving in military positions. Citizens called up for military training are treated as active military personnel.
The document is presented in three parts with appendices. Minimum unit article is considered standard. Each part consists of chapters, which allows you to quickly search for the necessary information. The presented structure turns the legislative document into a handy book for the military man guarding the garrison.
The first part of the UG and KS is devoted specifically to the organization of garrison service. Since the garrison is often represented by several military units, you should clearly know the distribution of responsibilities between regular officials. Army activities are conducted according to the same principles as the activities of a large enterprise. IN in this case the charter can be considered as an analogy of the staffing table and functionality for employees.
The direct implementation of garrison service is carried out by the garrison detachment. One of the chapters of the first part contains articles instructing patrols, duty officers and officials responsibilities. Here, methods of relationships and communication during the transfer of duty are established, a procedure for posting guards and a report form after each shift are introduced.
Any military unit always has equipment on its balance sheet. Unlike civilian vehicles, military equipment is not inspected by the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate. For this purpose, a special military inspection is created. The third chapter specifies the responsibilities of drivers and how to inspect the movement of military convoys, as well as single vehicles. The introduction of military inspection is due to the fact that military personnel often carry out tasks related to the storage of state secrets. Civilians cannot participate in inspections. Although a traffic police officer is not considered a civilian, the intervention of third-party structures without prior approval is unacceptable.
The Charter of the Guard Service of the RF Armed Forces is presented in the second part of the document. The numbering of chapters continues, so questions regarding the basic provisions, responsibilities and purpose of guards form the essence of Chapter 4. The guard service ensures the protection of banners, weapons and strategic objects. At the same time, responsibilities are clearly distributed among all military personnel included in the guard. To ensure the safety of the facility around the clock, it is necessary to regulate not only activities, but also timely divorce and changing of guards. A serviceman has no right to leave his post without permission. Only after the shift can he begin his daily duties.
The guard consists of soldiers vested with various powers. Positions are distributed between them, which may not depend on military rank. When organizing a guard, it is necessary to re-establish relationships according to the staff hierarchy, therefore, such issues should be highlighted in a separate chapter, which is seen in this charter. Checking the guards is aimed at ensuring order and compliance with all provisions provided for by the charter. Only certain persons can carry out inspections, and in a strictly established form. All issues related to inspections are presented in the form of articles 259-264.
