“I’M NOT BRAGGING, I KNOW ARTILLERY FROM THE BEGINNING TILL THE END”

STEPAN KARAPETYAN
Lance Sergeant

I serve in the frontier military unit. It is a year of my service, but cross-border service, or as we say, the real service is half a year. The first six months have been easy, but on the border… On the border even wake up and going to sleep, your actions are quite different. You serve even in a dream, because here the burden of responsibility is very great. Even the army bread is delicious… You eat it – and you are happy, because this right you have worked by your honest and faithful service. On the border the service lasts 24 hours and not a minute less.

I’m a gunner. I know my specialty very well, for which I’m grateful to the teachers of the training military unit. My commander said: “You must become such gunners that you could get even a needle!”

Of course, I would never want our guns to get in motion, but I assure you that, if necessary, our guys will show the whole arsenal of their knowledge.

Serving the Motherland!
Serving the Republic of Armenia!
