Lt.Colonel Samvel Minasyan has been recently appointed as commander of one of the North-East regiments. Under the former Commander – Colonel G.Amirkhanyan – this regiment last year took second place among the regiments conducting combat duty. So they put an assignment in front of themselves – to become the best!

Street manners penetrate the regiment not only with the recruits but also with contract-servicemen. The situation exacerbated by low educational level of the recruits. All the commanders know preventive means very well: individual talks, ideology-educational work, organization of cultural and recreational activities, but these should be on every-day, every-hour basis.

As the officers and soldiers, and religious leaders also get appointed in the regiments through lottery. A year and 7 months ago Volodya deacon Najaryan started to serve in the regiment named “Deers”.

During the function on the occasion of the International Women’s Day Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan admitted that the month dedicated to women is especially important for the servicemen who often have no possibility to pay attention to their wives and family members, and this omission they make up during this month. According the Minister, the Armenian woman allocates with her patriotism, dedication, and during the Artsakh war they proved that once more.

Such a tutorial was very essential in our reality. In the whole world there is a tendency of return to own national values, even we can say that this is the epoch of nationalism. All return to their roots, try to develop only their own nation’s traditions. We live in such an explosive region that we have to be strong economically, militarily and ideologically to discover in time the source of danger and to neutralize it.

In the combat regiments the education process starts with the harmonization of accounts, which is logical. If all the accounts forming part of platoon or company (battery) acquire high tactical efficiency and each of them would be able to perform fully the required combat mission, it would be considered thsat it is set up the basis of the middle element’s tactical efficiency, the rest is commander’s (officer’s) task. And if he has essential tactical knowledge, experience and, why not, talent, he could correctly put together and use the force of small combat sub-units and achieve success.

Recently charity NGO «Karoti Kanch», which unites the families of soldiers perished in Artsakh war, has organized a 3-day function: visit the regiments in Syounik and Vayots Dzor regiments. The first point was the motorized infantry regiment.
The guests had a walk in the territory of the regiment, visited the renovated medical point, afterwards put flowers at the khachqar – cross-stone which commemorates victims perished in Artsakh war. The guests stayed for night in the regiment and got acquainted with the soldiers’ everyday life.
