WHEN SILENCE IS GOLD

The most effective means of maintaining secrecy and to prevent leakage of information have been and remain arrangements, and this has been our department’s work. The whole process of preservation of secrecy in the RA Armed Forces is governed by orders and directives of the Defense Minister and Chief of the General Staff. Unfortunately, sometimes such violations are identified, which are caused by lack of knowledge and low level of consciousness of the soldiers. And here the punishment is not enough. It is necessary to eliminate leak paths. For this purpose, we started to create propaganda posters, CDs, preparing lectures and spread them in the troops. In a short time it has given a positive result.

And who would have thought that Davit Sarapyan’s fate would be of latters?

WHAT IS INFANTRY BIATHLON?

In our memory is still fresh brilliant performance of the Armenian tank-men in international competitions on tank biathlon.

And what would happen if in the defense system of Armenia they will take the process of organizing and conducting of championships of infantry biathlon? Since unlike tank biathlon, its organization is not only easier and more accessible, but may be more common, and any soldier could, within his capabilities, participate in this kind of competition, especially since the shooting range and unlimited possibility of cross-ways allow to combine shooting and running.
