About Marines Caspian Flotilla
May 24 this year, 727 separate battalion of the Caspian flotilla proceeded to the teachings. Scientists promise to be not quite normal at the shooting range and was attended by representatives of many television and print journalists, because some signs of "showing off", of course, present. Otherwise, the TV did not work to remove. A bus "press tourists" were brought from Astrakhan jolting "Lasik", dressed in a military tunic, to not stand out from the crowd, and were seated in the armor of BTR. It turned out to be honest, "not very": all nine armored personnel carriers appeared elegantly decorated with bunches of film crews.
On the day of tactical exercises the first company of the battalion rehearsed his actions on the offensive from the nomination of the depth of their defense to attack the enemy's front edge. The goal - "To achieve concerted action company in the transition to the attack, overcoming cost centers (mine-explosive obstacles), attack the front edge of the defense and destroy the enemy in the first trench." On all along it was given 2.5 hours. As support in exercises involved only a regimental artillery guns D-44 and artillery on self-propelled artillery 2C9 «Nona-S". The weather was hot, about 35 degrees. Strong steamed, it went to a thunderstorm. The sailors in small arms and grenade launchers boarded the BTR-70M and began to move towards the imaginary enemy.
