Then, April 28, 2014 Security Service of Ukraine issued a message stating that "in the framework of the antiterrorist operation SBU counterintelligence SBU found the real name and the name of the officer of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, which operates in Ukraine under the name of Igor Strelkov (call sign "Shooter"). "

In a statement, the SBU said that "the real name Igor Strelkov - Igor Vsevolodovich Girkin. He is a citizen of the Russian Federation, Colonel. Born December 17, 1970. Russian passport number: № 4506460961, registered in Moscow at Shenkursky fare. He is a staff member of the GRU and has repeatedly visited Ukraine with a Russian passport. " According to the SBU, the last time he had legally crossed the Ukrainian border on February 26 arriving flight Sheremetyevo Simferopol.

Meanwhile, from the data easily turns real person Girkin rifle, which rotates in the Russian military reenactment community. It is certainly not "the colonel of the GRU," and presumably, is a retired warrant officer or officer (?) FSB Russia, enthusiastic military reconstruction, and in recent years the main subject of his passion was to participate in the reconstruction of the Volunteer Army / Armed Forces of South Russia in the period 1918-1920 years (sic!). It is known that the hands-Girkin really actually took part in the Crimean events in February-March 2014, evidenced by his record in social networks

At the beginning of 2010 at the forum reenactors Girkin arrow to give such information about their military service:

June 1993 - July 1994 - conscripts. in / h 11281 MoD air defense gunner security company.

February - December 1995 - Contract service in / h 22033 "X" (166th gv.MSBR). On 24.031995 at 10.10.1995 - 67th OGSAD, zam.kom platoon commander guns

From August 1996 to July 2000 - in / h 31763
From July 2000 to April 2005 - a / h 78 576
From April 2005 to present - in / h 36391

Last place of service (in / h 36391) - it is the Office of the fight against international terrorism, 2nd Service FSB Russia. However, any information of a military or special education Girkin rifle available, so it seems, in the I / h, he served in a low rank of FSB on some support functions. This title is confirmed by the fact that the war reconstructions Girkin arrow also had the rank of sergeant (in the reconstruction "of the 75th Marine Infantry Brigade") or Ensign (in the reconstruction of the "Volunteer Army"). According to available information, some time ago Girkin arrow resigned from the FSB.

Perhaps this is the rare case when the interests determined life and the fate of the present, and when the man got a rare opportunity to realize their reconstruction literally true. It is also indicative of what people with great success, "troll" the current Ukrainian army and the Security Service.

UPDATE: A source told our blog that Girkin arrow at the time he graduated from some special courses FSB and served in the in / h FSB in some officers' ranks, but the colonel he was "definitely not promoted."
