On the eve of February 23 we visited the field camp reactive artillery regiment, which is already a month at the site. To learn how to live the Belarusian army in the field, than the soldiers eat and how dangerous "Hurricane", read in this report.
Just head to the holy of holies of the Belarusian army - in the field kitchen.

Will be 59 photos. A source.





Outside the rain and slush, but in a tent where food is prepared for the military, is very hot, you can even walk in a vest. Just a field camp two kitchens and two dining rooms. One of the officers, warrant officers and contract soldiers, the second - for the soldiers.



Just specify the differences in the menu, as the interior and cooking there. Why, then, such a division?
- At our contentment is more than two hundred people - says "zampotyl." - Provide a meal so many people in one tent, dining possible. Therefore, it was decided to divide the meals into categories.



Let's start with the food inspection. This is a common Soviet-style tent, in the middle of the room stands a field kitchen KP-40.



This kitchen is an essential feature of many films about the Soviet army.



Designed for cooking three or four dishes in the field for 40 people. At the time of our visit the chef just grilled burgers. After frying they will go on stewing in the oven.

The kitchen is fully autonomous and operates on natural fuel - wood. It can run on diesel fuel. Next to the heated pan, aluminum kettle with water.



As a side dish for lunch today will buckwheat porridge with stewed beef - a traditional dish in the field.



***



At the same time cook chops vegetables for the first course.



Today regimental menu - soup with pasta and canned meat.



In addition, each soldier on the field regulations allowances offered fresh onions or garlic, fresh juice and a piece of bacon.

Salo looks good, and eat him first.

The third dish on the range - tea.



In the morning and evening hot drink is added condensed milk. Again, according to the norms of the field allowance. In places of permanent deployment of soldiers rarely indulge "Rogachev".



Put soldiers and boiled eggs, cheese and bread. And if nonperishable food to the landfill was brought straight from a military unit - a few hundred kilometers, the bread delivered from a nearby bakery.



Therefore, it is always fresh.



Present the menu and canned vegetables and salads



To help the staff appointed and cooks daily attire for dining.



The duties of the soldiers on duty includes cleaning of root crops and restoring order in the dining rooms.



***



Often, soldiers and officers themselves come up with dishes that are on the table. For example, if you put a little bit of bread stew, cover with the cheese sandwich, and then bake in the oven, you get a real army sandwich.



And where are stored products?



Is there any stock?



- All non-perishable products are equipped dumps - says "zampotyl." - Now everything is stored in the back of the machine.
Now for the mess hall. The interior, of course, to restaurants or cafe does not hold, but "tylovikov" even tried it as something to decorate.

And what in the woods can be a decoration? Branches of pine sawn yes sticks. That's it and decorated their tables soldiers. Also on the table are a glass with napkins and a set of spices - salt and pepper. By serving also no complaints - present and spoons, and knives and forks.
Do not rule out the military that summer menu can also add the honey of wild bees - the trees are set traps hive. Follow them local forester. He also has promised to regale Medcom servicemen!



After the meal boxes near the dining room filled with dirty disposable dishes.



This is probably the innovation. I remember that before the soldiers ate, aluminum pots and drinking tea out of enameled mugs. As told us the "zampotyl" eat from disposable utensils are much safer, even though the cost of its acquisition of a lot.
