Regime in the Russian army. Time management and daily routine

We have already talked to you in a separate article. It's time to talk about a shorter period of life - a week. I will say right away that the weeks themselves are extremely similar to each other.

Therefore, I will group the most similar days among themselves and analyze them in detail. First weekdays, then weekends. Let's take a look at the daily routine in the army right now.

Daily routine in the army

Of course, dividing the days of the week into micro groups is conditional. Officially there is no division. Everyone has the right to figure out how to divide them. Some people don't share at all. I worked it out the following diagram dividing the days of the week according to your service experience:

• Bath days.
• Common days.
• Weekend.

The first two types relate to everyday life, but the last one is not worth commenting on yet. We will analyze the weekend in detail at the end of the article. Let's go in order.

Daily routine in the army. Bath days: Monday and Thursday

The word “bathhouse” comes from “banya”. Previously, soldiers washed in baths 1–2 times a week. The number of bath days has remained unchanged even now, but we do not have a bathhouse itself.

Therefore, our bathhouse is being replaced by taking a shower, but the very name “bath days” is still actively used in colloquial speech military personnel of any ranks. You can't escape tradition!

So, what is the peculiarity of bath days in relation to other types? Let's figure it out from the very beginning.

06.00 — rise

The orderly's command sounds to the entire company location: “Company, get up,” after which each serviceman blows himself up and quickly gets ready for morning physical exercises.

Upon returning to the company after charging, we are divided into approximately two halves. The first ones make their beds first, then go wash. The latter, on the contrary, wash themselves first. We do this so as not to create a long queue at the sinks.

06.30-07.00 - making beds and morning toilet

At 07.00 the entire company is already standing on the central aisle wearing the required uniform and preparing for the morning inspection.

07.00-07.20 - morning inspection of the appearance of military personnel

In 20 minutes, squad commanders conduct a morning inspection of all servicemen of their squads, and, therefore, of the entire company.

Your appearance and availability of necessary things with you are checked.

For example, the cleanliness of combat boots, the neatness of uniforms, the length of hair on the head, the smooth shavenness of each soldier, and much more are often checked. The same thing is checked every day, so there is no need to panic here.

You will go through this once, and then you will know and follow everything you need. Moreover, during the morning inspection, military personnel are given time to eliminate the noticed deficiencies. appearance.

One of the important parts of the morning inspection is the recording by the company duty officer of all military personnel who need to go to the infirmary. We are very concerned about and care for our patients. No one here wants the whole company to be sick. If you cough, go to the infirmary. If your temperature rises, go to the infirmary.

“There’s no need to be a hero! You’ll be patient now, and tomorrow you’ll infect your comrade.” This is how we are taught.

07.20-08.00 — breakfast

We have breakfast in the dining room with the whole company. And even more precisely - to everyone. One by one. We come to the dining room one at a time and have breakfast, respectively, also in turn. I will also write a separate article about food in the army, because there is something to tell there too. Overall - good!

For this purpose, on Mondays there is a general institute divorce and raising of the flag on the large parade ground.

An army parade is an event on a large/small parade ground, when all units of the institute/battalion gather, greet the chief, listen to a speech, or hold important events (for example, award ceremonies).

The ceremonial raising of the flag may also take place on the large parade ground. Russian Federation and the performance of the Russian Anthem by military personnel.

After the end of the planned events, all units take turns marching in front of the commander to the accompaniment of a military orchestra or artificial musical accompaniment (music in the speakers on the parade ground).

On Thursdays, in turn, from 08.00 to 09.00 there are morning training sessions and training sessions on the small parade ground.

08.00-09.00 - raising and raising the flag on the large parade ground on Mondays/morning training and raising the flag on the small parade ground on Thursdays

Morning training is a half-hour event aimed at consolidating theoretical knowledge and developing skills on specific topics of the lesson.

Sometimes they are carried out after serious jambs of a platoon/company in order to eliminate such jambs in the future. An example on jambs - a training session on making beds.

Sometimes morning training sessions are replaced by morning information sessions. Usually once a week. Then the company sits in the information and leisure room and listens to the latest news in the country and in the world over the past week.

09.00 - 14.00 - training sessions (pairs)

The schedule is:

• 09.00-10.45 - I pair.
• 10.50-12.40 - II pair.
• 12.50-14.00 - III pair.

In fact, according to the schedule, the 3rd pair goes longer. But it is deliberately shortened in order to return the company to the barracks, build on the central aisle and hold the next event.

14.00-14.20 - control check

It is very important to understand that in the army there are 2 events that are similar in meaning, but different in meaning and name. This control examination And evening verification. I will talk about the latter later.

The meaning of the control check is clear from the name. The company duty officer checks the presence of military personnel. Is everything in place? And if not, where is it?

14.20-15.00 - lunch

Another one of my favorite activities every day. Lunch may be a little late, because they really give you a lot to eat. And we are happy about it!

15.15-15.30 - divorce

This divorce, unlike the morning ones, takes place on a small parade ground and not for the entire institute, but for our battalion. It is conducted by the battalion commander or, in the absence of the latter, by his deputy.

15.30-18.00 – bath day events

And here is what sets Monday and Thursday apart from the general mass of days. These are bath days, which means after lunch we will go wash/shave/do personal hygiene. A little time for yourself won't hurt.

18.00-18.20 - control check

Another control check on the central passage in the barracks. We check whether everyone managed to do everything that was needed. That is, they brought themselves and their appearance into complete order.

18.20-19.00 - dinner

I wanted to write that this is the final pleasant event for the day, but no... There is one more thing. Want to know which one? - Read on! ;-)

19.00-21.00 - time for personal needs

Wash, shave, iron, hem, mend. You can continue verbs endlessly.

IN Lately They began to actively go to the company gym at this time. You can find half an hour or an hour of free time a day here. And nowhere else.

21.00-21.15 — watching the TV program “Time”

This is what I don’t like. I don't like watching TV at all. But in the army it doesn’t matter what you like and what you don’t. There is such a word - necessary.

21.15-21.35 - evening walk

We get dressed, line up and go outside. We walk around the territory as part of the company and sing drill songs. We already have 5 of these in our company. We are learning a few more.

At the same time, they can take those who smoke to the smoking room to smoke. But this is not about me. At this time I’m just standing on the sidelines with the guys who don’t smoke. We communicate on different topics.

21.35-21.45 — evening verification

And here she is. Evening verification, not just another check. So what is it?

After walking on the command of the company duty officer, “Company, for evening roll call - STAND UP,” the deputy platoon commanders line up their units for roll check. The company duty officer, having formed the company, reports to the foreman about the formation of the company for the evening roll call.

The company sergeant major or the person replacing him gives the command “Attention” and begins the evening roll call. At the beginning of the evening roll call, he names the military ranks, the names of the servicemen who were included in the company list forever or as honorary soldiers for their feats. Having heard the name of each of the indicated servicemen, the deputy commander of the first platoon reports: “So-and-so ( military rank and surname) died a brave death in battle for the freedom and independence of the Fatherland - the Russian Federation" or "An honorary soldier of the company (military rank and surname) is in the reserve."
After this, the company sergeant-major verifies the company personnel according to the name list. Hearing his last name, each serviceman answers: “I am.” Squad commanders are responsible for those who are absent.
For example: “On guard”, “On vacation”.
At the end of the evening roll call, the company sergeant major gives the command “FREE”, announces orders and instructions regarding all military personnel, the order for the next day and makes (specifies) the combat crew in case of alarm, fire and other emergency situations, as well as in case of sudden attack on the location of a military unit (unit).

Got it? Verification is a sacred military ritual and dates back to the times of the Great Patriotic War. It was then that it was invented and began to be actively used.

Soldiers must know the names of the heroes of our time. I really respect and honor this event. That’s why I cringe when another orderly, standing on the bedside table, pronounces the wrong command: “Company, stand up for the evening inspection!”

22.00 — lights out

But on the contrary, I really love the command of the same orderly “Company, lights out!” After it, everyone scatters to their sleeping places and goes to bed. The most pleasant moment of every day...

Daily routine in the army. Regular days: Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday

If you have read the entire article up to this point, then I can congratulate you. You have read more than one and a half thousand words. That's why I don't want to describe these ordinary days in detail either. Moreover, they are not much different from bathhouses.

Let's talk about the differences.

08.00-08.40 — morning training on NBC protection on Wednesdays

Wednesday is RCBD day. This means that Wednesday is the only day of the week when we all receive our gas masks in the morning, put them on ourselves and wear them all day.

No, no, you misunderstood me. We don’t put it on our faces… We put bags with gas masks on our shoulders. :-)

But we put it on our heads at the command “Gas!”

The correct execution of this particular command is practiced at the morning training on NBC protection every Wednesday.

Yes, and during the day it can sound several times. Therefore, Wednesday is a day of maximum concentration!

15.30-18.00 - training sessions

Yeah. These are not bath days. We have couples here on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays.

Here, in fact, are all the main differences between bath days and ordinary days.

Let's move on to the most interesting...

Daily routine in the army. Days off: Saturday and Sunday

The schedule for both days is developed in the week before their occurrence.

Usually on Wednesday. On Wednesday, the schedule for the next weekend is worked out, printed and approved.

It has regular events and ones that change every week. I also suggest going in order!

Saturday

06.00-15.30 - same as normal days

Rise, exercise, inspection, breakfast, steam before lunch, lunch, return to the company. But then...

15.30-15.55 - summing up the week

Summing up is carried out in the following format.

The company is seated on the central aisle or in the information and leisure room, after which the company commander or his deputy for work with personnel sums up the results.

The best and worst military personnel are celebrated. By discipline and knowledge. Sometimes they are singled out by sport. For example, a week ago I was tagged in better side, because I ran 3rd from the platoon at a distance of 1 kilometer.

After this, priority tasks for next week and those responsible are assigned to the premises of the barracks for further activities of the park and economic day.

16.00-18.00 - carrying out park and business day activities

In general, if you translate from Russian into Russian, it will turn out like this: “Saturday = subbotnik.”

We generalize everything we see. Both the barracks and the territory on the street assigned to the unit.

And so every week...

In parallel with this, creative people are developing their skills. Namely, by issuing combat leaflets. I will write a separate article about what this is about creative implementation in the army. (Yes, yes. There is plenty of that here too!)

18.10-22.00 - same as usual days

With one very important exception. It is on the weekend that you have the opportunity to watch a good army-themed movie on TV.

This happens between 19.00-21.00. In personal time. Everyone is invited to the information and leisure room, where they watch a great movie. Last Saturday we watched the movie “We are from the Future”.

Sunday

Have you ever heard that the Russian army now has days off? No? Then now know. There are! Only they are very special. Army.

And if you are one of those people who, like me, heard about this before reading this article, then get ready to learn the whole truth about the routine of a typical weekend in the army.

07.30 — rise

That's cool! The most beautiful moment of the week is the “lights out” command the day before on Saturday. Great because you realize the amount of time you can sleep: a whole 9 and a half hours!

The only lines that come to my mind are lines from a song by a famous performer with the words: “This is probably my paradise...”

What do you think? Are we running to exercise? No matter how it is! There is no charging on Sunday. The only morning of the week without morning physical exercise.

Therefore, from the very moment we get up until breakfast, we spend our time making the beds and cleaning ourselves in the morning.

07.30-08.30 - morning toilet and examination
08.30-09.00 — breakfast
09.00-09.30 - watching the TV show “Serving Russia”
09.30-10.00 - legal information for military personnel

We sit down in the information and leisure room for half an hour and listen to what we can and should do and what we cannot do. An example of a legal information topic: “Responsibility of military personnel for the theft of weapons and ammunition.”

10.00-11. 00 - mass sports work

A whole hour of sports! On a weekend! Do you know what I mean?

On the last Sunday the following exercises were performed:

• Pull-up on the bar.
• Raising your legs to the bar.

I did 19 pull-ups. Not enough, because they did it with the position fixed from below. As expected. Nevertheless, the second most times in the company. The first one did 20, but I never managed to do it. Next time I will definitely be the first!

11.00-13.00 - watching documentaries

Sometimes there is one long film, sometimes there are several different ones. The point is that we watch war documentaries. Have you watched any? Maybe you can advise? I'll offer it next Sunday.

14.30-15.00 - lunch
15.30-16.30 - sleep

It's time to sleep. It happens and it helps.

16.40-17.20 - conversation with personnel

At this time, the officer conducts a conversation with us on various topics. Not about whatever comes into his head, of course.

An example of a conversation topic: “Intense combat training is a guarantee of strong military discipline.”

17.30-18.10 - soldier's writing hour

The favorite event of all out-of-towners. We write letters to our family and friends. I once wrote and sent two letters to my grandmother. Still keeps it. And I have her letter too.

18.10-22.00 - same as Saturday

Watching a film in your own time is also included in the program.
In total, over the weekend we watch at least one documentary and two feature films.

How's your day off? Better than in civilian life?

I miss sports. But I found a way out. I described this solution in the article ““.

P.S. I think it’s enough to burden you with our daily routine in the army. I think I described it in quite detail.

The main thing is to understand that all days/weeks are extremely similar to each other. The events that I described above take place with me and my comrades every week. It’s very rare that something out of the ordinary happens!

So, how do you like it? Would you like to live with such a daily routine in the army? Share your opinion in the comments right now. It is very interesting to me!

We are waiting for your comments,

Time allocation and daily routine

1. Daily routine part

222. The distribution of time in a military unit during the day, and according to some provisions during the week, is carried out by the daily routine.

Daily routine in a military unit is the basis for planning the activities of military personnel, as well as maintaining combat readiness and military discipline in the unit. It is approved by the commander of the military unit, and the daily routine may differ depending on the type of troops and the specifics of performing tasks. Basically, they are almost identical with regards to getting up, morning physical exercise, exercise, eating and other elements of the routine. Let's look at everything in order.

Daily routine for conscripted military personnel

• 5.50-6.00 Rise of deputy platoon commanders.

At this time, the company orderly raises the sergeants. This is necessary so that they have time to get themselves in order, wash, put on their uniform and participate in organizing the general rise. Next, the unit commander gathers the sergeants near the orderly’s bedside table and sets tasks for the morning activities. He clarifies the consumption of personnel for morning physical exercises, as well as the number of personnel brought in to restore order in the company’s location and in the external territory. After this, the company duty officer gives the command: “Company rise”!

• 6.00-6.10 General increase in company personnel.

At the command of the company duty officer, a general rise of personnel is carried out. At the same time, deputy platoon commanders and squad leaders duplicate the commands of the duty officer and arrange the unit’s personnel in two ranks. Next, they check their units against the list (full name) and report the availability of personnel to the responsible officer. Next, the officer removes those released due to illness and those brought in to restore order. After this, the military personnel are taken outside for morning physical exercise.

• 6.10-6.40 Morning physical exercise.

As a rule, morning physical exercises are carried out by unit officers. Personally, it was a pleasure for me to run in the morning and make the unit wake up. But often officers take little part in this element of the daily routine and send sergeants out for a run instead of themselves. Depending on weather conditions, exercises are carried out either at the stadium, or on the parade ground, or in the unit, if we are talking about severe frosts or rain. As for sports uniforms, the army now has a pretty good supply of clothing. To organize and conduct morning exercises, military personnel are given in the summer: a T-shirt, shorts, and sneakers. In winter, they are provided with pants and a windbreaker with a hood. Therefore, you don’t have to worry about your health. Morning physical exercise includes a run of two to three kilometers and general physical exercise.

• 6.40-7.10 Morning toilet and making beds.

After morning exercises, all personnel are sent to the unit. Next, about 30-40 minutes are allotted for washing and putting your appearance in order, as well as for making your beds. This is quite enough for the soldier to wash, shave, polish his shoes, and prepare for the further daily routine.

• 7.10-7.30 Morning inspection.

The morning inspection is carried out to check the appearance and prepare the personnel for classes. The unit is lined up on the parade ground or at the company location. Next, deputy platoon commanders and squad commanders begin to conduct a morning inspection. First, the soldier’s appearance is checked: attention is paid to the cleanliness of his uniform, the absence of stubble, the edging on his neck, the presence of needles and threads on the soldier, a comb, a handkerchief, as well as the completeness of his field bag.

If you need to visit the infirmary or be examined by doctors, then during the morning examination, ask the company orderly for a patient record book. Write down your name and the specialist doctor you are going to see.

• 7.30-7.55 Informing. Drill training. RCBZ training.

During this period of time, different events can be held, depending on the days of the week. Information in the departments is carried out every Mon and Fri. This element of the routine is strictly controlled and carried out by unit officers. It reads the main articles of the laws on military service, Interesting Facts about the army and days of military glory. Drill training is carried out every VT and CT on the parade ground or in the unit. In this training, drill techniques and movements without weapons are practiced. Every military unit has a “RkhbZ” day. As a rule, this day of radiation, chemical and biological protection falls on Wednesday. On this day, all military personnel are given gas masks, and they practice the standards for putting on a gas mask.

• 8.10-8.45 Breakfast.

I think that there should not be any special questions here. The personnel line up after morning training on the parade ground and either sing or go to the beat of the drum to eat.

• 8.45-9.00 Divorce of personnel and sending to classes.

At the end of breakfast, all personnel of the unit are sent to formation. At this formation, the unit commander sets tasks for the day, does important announcements and comments, punishes careless soldiers and thanks those who distinguished themselves. After this, commanders send personnel to training under the guidance of officers.

• 9.00-14.00 Classes.

During this period of the daily routine, classes are held with all departments. These are classes on studying the Charter of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, on physical culture, in drill training, in public and state training, NBC protection, combined arms training, as well as in special training. preparation. Each military unit has its own time restrictions for conducting classes. Mostly they last 90 minutes each, and somewhere around 60, with breaks in between.

• 14.00-14.30 Dinner.
• 14.30-15.00 Time for personal needs.

Upon arrival at the location after lunch, personnel are given time for personal needs. Persons who made an appointment with the doctors at the infirmary (see morning examination) will be sent as part of a group. At the same time, delivery of mail and parcels from relatives is organized.

• 15.00-16.00 Sleep of personnel.

Yes, just a dream and nothing personal. The tradition of “quiet hour” has long taken root in the army, which conscripts enjoy with pleasure. Well, let them rest. The soldier is on sleep duty.

• 16.00-17.00 Classes.

After rest, according to the plan and training schedule, the military personnel are given the fourth hour of training.

• 17.00-18.10 Self-training.

During independent training, military personnel are given time to prepare for the following classes. It is held in classrooms or in company quarters and leisure rooms under the direction of officers and sergeants.

• 18.10-18.30 Summarizing

In the last 10-15 minutes before completion self-study departments are summing up the results. This can be referred to as a platoon meeting, where the sergeants and platoon commander take stock of training and military discipline. They reflect various violations of military discipline, shortcomings in service, comments that were made during the day, etc. Excellent students and military discipline are also encouraged.

• 18.30-19.10 Educational work, sports and mass work.

Before dinner, the military personnel conduct events that are already familiar to you. Mass sports work is carried out similar to morning exercises.

• 19.10-19-20 Shoe cleaning. Hand washing

After classes and before meals, time is provided for personal needs.

• 19.20-19.50 Dinner.
• 19.50-21.00 Time for personal needs

The time has just come when a soldier can mind his own business. And believe me, more than an hour is quite a long time for a soldier. Everyone spends this precious time at their own discretion: some read books, some work out in the sports room, and some talk to family on the phone.

• 21.00-21.30 Viewing the program “TIME.”

This element of the daily routine is especially controlled by both commanders and duty officers at the military unit. Viewing the “Time” program is mandatory for all personnel, right down to the company’s squadron. The entire unit sits in front of the TV and watches news at home and abroad.

• 21.30-21.40 An evening walk.

The evening walk is organized with the participation of all personnel. The units are taken out into the street, and under the leadership of the officer and sergeants of the company, a song is performed along with the marching step. After such a walk, everyone is driven back to the company location.

• 21.40-21.50 Evening verification.

For evening verification, 100% of the personnel are assembled, including the company outfit. It is conducted personally by the responsible officer. The unit stands at attention and the officer begins to read out the list of all personnel, according to the evening check book. Hearing his last name, the serviceman loudly and clearly answers “I”! After the entire list is announced, the sergeants assign and remove from the ranks a squad for the company and those released from morning exercises. They are, as a rule, appointed to restore order in the company's location or in external territory.

• 21.50-22.00 Evening toilet.
• 22.00 Lights out

After the evening toilet, all personnel line up on the central aisle at the company location. The officer or company duty officer gives the command “Hang up.” The deputy platoon commanders check the filling of their uniforms and go to rest.

*When describing this daily routine, I did not indicate the time for organizing the washing of personnel and changing linen. This element of the daily routine can change and be organized both in the morning and in the evening.

I would like to remind you once again that this daily routine is not a priority. It can be slightly changed by the commander of a military unit depending on the tasks, goals and combat training plan.

Most people plan their day in advance, deciding what time they will get up in the morning and what they will do at certain times. In the army there is also a clear daily routine that must be followed. Characteristic difference The difference between the military and the so-called civilian daily routine is that the time of military personnel is managed by the unit commander, who directly approves the daily routine of the military unit.

Daily routine for conscripted military personnel

Strict adherence to the daily routine by military personnel is one of the key factors of military discipline, and its violation entails disciplinary action. It is worth noting that depending on the type of troops and the specifics of performing tasks, the daily routine of the unit may differ, but not significantly. For conscripted military personnel, the daily routine establishes a plan for carrying out and completing the necessary activities, and also allocates time for study and personal needs. The daily routine on weekdays differs from weekends, but we’ll look at what exactly that is next.

Example of a daily routine

To understand what we are talking about, we suggest you visually familiarize yourself with an example of the daily routine of conscript military personnel:
5.50 – rise of squad commanders and their deputies;
06.00 – general rise;
06.10 – morning exercises;
06.40 – morning toilet, as well as making the beds;
07.10 – inspection of soldiers;
07.30 – breakfast;
07.50 – preparation for classes;
08.00 – listening to radio broadcasts;
08.15 – informing personnel, training;
08.45 – sending personnel to informative classes;
09.00 – classes (5 lessons of 1 hour with 10-minute breaks);
13.50 – shoe shine;
14.00 – lunch time;
14.30 – personal time;
15.00 – self-study classes;
16.00 – maintenance of weapons and military equipment;
17.00 – change of clothes, shine shoes;
17.25 – summing up;
18.00 – time for sports and educational events;
19.00 – hygiene;
21.00 – watching information television programs;
21.40 – evening verification;
22.00 – lights out.

How the daily routine may differ on different days of the week

Depending on the day of the week and due to additional events, the daily routine may change.
In many units, on Mondays before classes, there is a general meeting on the parade ground, at which the unit commander or his deputy sums up the results of the past week and also sets tasks for the next one.
Friday is called “park day” (maintenance and cleaning of vehicles and military equipment), for which a separate time is also allocated in the daily routine.

Maintenance of equipment by military personnel during a park day

In addition, there are bath days in which time is allocated for washing personnel. Typically, the unit commander allocates two days a week for washing, but in some cases, for example, after housework, servicemen can also be given a shower. Bath days got their name from the fact that previously soldiers actually washed in baths, but now in practice all baths have been replaced by showers. However, all military personnel, out of habit, continue to call these days bath days.

The transition to shower systems in barracks is now being actively practiced, thanks to which military personnel can take a shower every day. Therefore, leaving bath days in the routine is a matter of time.

Daily routine of a contract soldier

In military units, military personnel undergo not only compulsory service, but also voluntary contract service. A characteristic difference between contract soldiers and conscripts is that they serve in the unit only at the time established by regulations. In other words, for them, like for civilians, service resembles a regular working day. Military personnel spend the night outside the unit: in dormitories, in rented apartments or in their own apartments.

The daily routine of military personnel under a contract must be drawn up taking into account the regulations of service time in order to fully ensure the fulfillment of the tasks of service and combat training and not exceed the standard 40 hours per week regulated Labor Code RF. If a serviceman is involved in service beyond the established weekly norm, he is required to provide him with rest time, based on his desire and interests of military service.

The regulations of service time and the daily routine of contract servicemen are approved directly by the unit commander and must provide the following regulatory guarantees:

• 24-hour duty (outside daily duty) is allowed only by order of senior command and in special cases;
• according to the regulations, the serviceman is allocated time for lunch, physical training and independent study;
• if a serviceman is called to duty on one of the days of rest, then he has the right to take time off on another day of the week;
• on rest days (Saturday, Sunday, holidays) a special, softer daily routine is established;
• The contract worker must be given two days off per week, although in practice this does not always work out, especially if the unit is short-staffed. In this case, they are paid for overtime or given time off (according to the serviceman’s report).

An example of service time regulations for contract military personnel:

arrival for duty from Monday to Friday – 08.45;
departure from service from Monday to Friday – 17.45;
lunch – from 14.00 to 15.00;
classes – from 09.00 to 13.00;
classes on physical training– on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 15.00 to 17.00;
preparation for classes - from Monday to Friday - from 15.00 to 17.00;
communicating orders, setting tasks for the week (summarizing the results for the month) - on Fridays from 16.00 to 16.45;
preparation for duty by those on duty in a company (battery) or division is carried out on the day of entry from 13.00 to 17.00;
briefing of duty officers is carried out on the day before joining the outfit, from Monday to Friday at 16.00;
The duty shift supervisor is briefed on the day before going on combat duty, from Monday to Friday.

In general, the daily routine of contract soldiers differs from the routine of conscripts, but not significantly. In the unit, only lunch is provided for contract soldiers, since they have breakfast and dinner at home.

Officer's daily routine

Officer's daily routine Russian army almost the same as that of an ordinary soldier. It differs in that the officer must monitor compliance with the daily routine by his subordinates, and also, if necessary, organize additional events.

To understand what we are talking about, let's look at one day in the life of an officer.
Since military personnel get up at 6:00 a.m., the officer needs to arrive at the unit 10 to 15 minutes earlier. Immediately after getting up, the officer must carry out exercises, which last for 30 minutes. After this, while the personnel are busy in the morning toilet, the officer has about an hour of time to plan the day, fill out logs and other daily activities. Also, at this time, a meeting can be held with commanders of units at different levels.

The officer then accompanies the unit to breakfast.
After breakfast, immediately before classes, it is necessary to assemble the personnel and inform them about the plan of action for the day, or provide the necessary information. This happens separately only if there is no general divorce on the parade ground.

During classes (most often from 9 to 13.50) the officer is busy with official business: checking internal order, organizing the work of the internal team, working with documentation, conducting classes with personnel, and much more. Upon arrival of military personnel from training sessions, they must be taken to lunch.

Next, the officer monitors the military personnel’s compliance with the daily routine until the evening check, which is usually carried out twenty minutes before lights out. After checking the presence of all the soldiers, the officer tells the soldiers to clear out at 10 p.m. and can be free until the next day.

This is the approximate daily routine of an officer, but it is worth noting that it may vary depending on the day of the week and additional instructions manuals. Currently, contract servicemen (sergeants) can replace officers when accompanying the company to lunch, as well as during other events.

Daily routine in the classroom

Let's start with the fact that after conscription, some military personnel do not end up in combat units, but in training units (popularly called “training camps”), where they gain the proper knowledge and skills before entering a combat unit. The training period usually lasts from 3 to 6 months, after which the young soldiers are disbanded in parts. The daily routine in the training unit is approved by its commander. The main difference between the daily routine of the training unit and the usual one is that, as a rule, more time is allocated for training sessions and military personnel are trained in more specialized areas. In all other respects, the daily routine of the training section is not much different. Monitoring compliance with the routine in the training unit is very strict, since newly arrived military personnel must be shown that the daily routine is the basis of discipline for all military units.

Upon completion of training, a serviceman, depending on the direction of training, can receive a narrowly focused specialty, for example:

• Driver of a tank, infantry fighting vehicle, armored personnel carrier
• Operator-gunner, gunner and similar specialties
• Truck crane operator, transport-loading machine operator and others
• Various specialties in engineering, airborne, radio engineering, air defense and artillery troops

Also, after completing the training unit, a number of junior commanders join the troops. Often in rank Lance Sergeant. They are specially trained to manage the unit, work with personnel and all the skills necessary for a commander.

Daily routine at a military school

Most often, young guys who dream of becoming officers enter military universities. Most of them just come after school and have no idea what actually awaits them. The daily routine is the first difficulty that they encounter from the very beginning of training, since they will now have to get up at 6.00, and “fight back” at 22:00, and not at what time their body is accustomed to. The first weeks are especially difficult to get involved in “ new life“, since not everyone is ready to live according to a schedule, but there is nowhere to go.

Formation on the parade ground of the Novosibirsk Higher Military Command School

Senior cadets are most often allowed to live on the so-called “free exit”, that is, after self-training, they go to the dormitory until the next morning, which is reminiscent of the daily routine of contract soldiers.
To understand how the daily routine at a military school differs from the routine of a regular military unit, we suggest looking at the example of one of the military schools and comparing it with the army one, which was given earlier.

General rise – 6.00.
Toilet – from 6.00 to 6.10.
Morning exercises – from 6.10 to 7.00.
Making beds, washing - from 7.00 to 7.20.
Morning inspection - from 7.20 to 7.30.
Breakfast – from 7.30 to 8.15.
Operational information – from 8.15 to 8.45.
Preparation for classes, departure for classes - from 8.45 to 9.00.
Classes:
1 hour – 9.00 – 9.50;
2 hours – 10.00 – 10.50;
3 hours – 11.00 – 11.50;
4 hours – 12.00 – 12.50;
5 hours – 13.00 – 13.50;
6 o’clock – 14.00 – 14.50.
Hand washing – 14.50 – 15.00.
Lunch – from 15.00 to 15.30.
Afternoon. Listening latest news– from 15.30 to 16.00.
Maintenance of weapons and equipment - from 16.00 to 16.50.
Self-study - from 16.50 to 18.30.
Educational and sports events – from 18.30 to 19.20.
Dinner – from 19.30 to 20.00.
Time for personal needs is from 20.00 to 21.00.
Watching informational and political television programs - from 21.00 to 21.20.
Evening walk - from 21.20 to 21.35.
Evening verification – from 21.35 to 21.50.
Evening toilet – from 21.50 to 22.00.
Lights out at 22.00.

As you can see, the daily routines of a military school and other military units are very similar.

In conclusion, I would like to add that by following the daily routine in the army, after demobilization it will be much easier to plan your time, since it really becomes a habit, making a person more disciplined and organized. Many note positive changes in the lives of young guys after the army thanks to the routine. Here they learned to complete assigned tasks on time and became independent and responsible. It is easier for those who have served in the army to get a job and join a new team, especially for law enforcement agencies, where preference is given to candidates who have completed military service.

The routine in the army can be divided into the following days:

• The first is bath days.
• The second is ordinary days.
• And, of course, weekends and holidays.

Bath days are Monday and Thursday

Although in most cases there is no bathhouse as such, the word has stuck. On this day, soldiers wash and take a shower. Change underwear. Usually this happens 1-2 times in 7 days, per week.

Let's take a closer look at this day.

Rise, as on regular days, at 6:00. The orderly’s command sounds in the company: “Company, get up!” After this command, the military personnel must quickly get ready and march at a walking pace for morning exercises. There is construction, verification and exit.

The next command is to exercise! From 6:05 to 6:30 morning exercises in the fresh air.

From 6:30 to 7:00 morning toilet, make the beds.

From 7:00 to 7:20 there is a morning inspection, the appearance of the military personnel is checked. This inspection includes checking both clothing, shoes, and appearance. Patients are identified, and if there are any, they are immediately sent to the infirmary.

Now all the necessary preliminary morning chores have been done, now it’s time to have breakfast. Breakfast lasts from 7:20 to 8:00.

The next event is the divorce, raising the flag, morning training. Time from 8:00 to 9:00. Conventional training is carried out in drill training, public and state training, as well as in such types as radiation, chemical and biological protection(hereinafter referred to as RCBZ) and some other items.

From 9:00 to 14:00 studies take place with 10 minute breaks in each academic hour.

Before lunch there is a control check - this is from 14:00 to 14:20. The presence of military personnel on site is checked, if not, then where?

Favorite pastime: lunch! From 14:20 to 15:00. After lunch, personal time and divorce for the afternoon - this happens until 15:30.

And here are the features bath day. These events highlight these days - Monday and Thursday from common days services. These days, military personnel do the following things: wash, shave, and do personal hygiene. The time allocated for all this is from 15:30 to 18:00.

The next control check takes place from 18:00 to 18:20.

Military dinner – 18:20-19:00.

The warrior’s personal time is from 19:00 to 21:00. During this time, the serviceman can attend to his personal affairs: write a letter, read a book, or do other things.

It is mandatory to watch information programs like “Time” from 21:00 to 21:15.

Then the military personnel carry out evening walk- marching with songs. Time – 21:15-21:35.

After the walk - evening check - 21:35-21:45 and then the command is given: “All clear”! This already means 22:00. It's time to get into bed and sleep until the next morning.

Regular days are Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday

The daily routine on ordinary days is slightly different from bath days and weekends. Let's look at how they differ.

Wednesday, morning training, classes on NBC protection. They are practicing personal protective equipment.

But from 15:30 to 18:00 there are training sessions - this is Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday. That's probably all the differences between these days.

Weekends and holidays – Saturday, Sunday and holidays

On Saturday from 6:00 to 15:30 the daily routine is similar to the routine on ordinary days (getting up, morning exercises, checking, classes in the morning, lunch for military personnel).

From 15:30 to 15:30 the results of the past week are summed up and plans for the next week are outlined.

From 16:00 to 18:00, park and housekeeping activities, putting things in order in the premises and on the territory.

Further times (18:10-22:00) are the same on weekdays. Moreover, from 19:00 to 21:00 is personal time.

In Sunday the rise occurs a little later, namely at 7:30, that is, the military personnel are allowed to sleep for as much as 9.5 hours! In addition, there is no mandatory morning exercise. So, after getting up, the routine will be as follows.
