Where is the disbat left in the cis? All about the disbat (disciplinary battalion)

I visited the place where there is a "nightmare" of any soldier - where there are no smoke breaks, dismissals, smiles ... There is only merciless, senseless Discipline. He was lucky to get into the Mulinsky disbat. It was lucky that he ended up there as a correspondent. Below are his photographs and a story about a battalion, where a day consists of eight hours of drill on the parade ground, eight hours of cramming the charter or (for the lucky ones) hard physical labor in the concrete products workshop, and eight hours of sleep.

We went out early in the day with eight people on the so-called "bloggers' press tour." Fortunately, we all turned out to be professional journalists, and the bloggers slept well, so no one interfered with our work. But this is the lyrics. And the practice was that after five hours of travel we parked at the checkpoint of military unit 12801. And then there were photos and a few signatures under them.

The uniform of the already outdated sample with "Convoy" stamps on the back and numbers on the chest and sleeves (company number). This is done to make it easier for escorts to identify their charges. All the time in the ranks. Drill training takes a third of the day in the life of a convicted soldier in a disbat. The other two-thirds are divided between household chores, study of the charter, and sleep. The meaning is simple - a disciplinary battalion is not a prison, it is a military unit, the stay in which is designed to return the soldier who stumbles to respect for discipline. And it is grafted. Yesterday's brawlers and thugs walk along the line, shyly lowering their extinct eyes. Rigorous and even absurd adherence to the letter and spirit of the army regulations - most efficient method... Those who have gone through the disbat, according to statistics, stumble then extremely rarely - according to the zamkombat, during the last year there were only two requests from the court with a request to give a description of the former local "pets".

Arrival of the "young replenishment". I would not dare to call this moment the most joyful in the life of Private S.G., although he, apparently, does not yet realize where he is. The zampolit reads to him the order to enroll in the third disciplinary company. Now he will have a few free minutes over the course of ten months to ponder whether he should have refused to clean up the barracks, as all the orderlies on duty do. In disbat the most proud horsemen plow like bees from morning till night, just to earn parole.

And this is the text of the verdict, if anyone is interested.

And three more newcomers. The eyes are still shining, curiosity is still read in them - after all, a new page in life. It would have been better not to open it. But it's too late.

Muslim soldiers gathered for Friday prayers at a makeshift mosque set up at the club. Natives of the North Caucasus make up 42% of the contingent, and the mullah comes to them every Friday.

In the wooden church of St. Sergius, built by the soldiers themselves, is also crowded: the priest tells about the lives of the holy apostles Bartholomew and Barnabas. I have a strong suspicion that the priest was asked to come especially on the occasion of our visit - the day, frankly speaking, is not a Sunday or a holiday. But the guys can break away from the stupefying routine at least for a few minutes.

The cross was kissed, back in line, and a march in step - in this part, movement can be of only two types: a marching step or a run. There is no third.

Hozzon. Working in a concrete plant is a privilege and must be earned. And although the work is hard and monotonous, it allows you to at least partially escape from vicious circle- drill, cleaning, drill, outfit, drill, cleaning ...

Fences, barbed and cutting wires, a ban, submachine gunners on towers, ferocious dogs - it's almost impossible to run. Although there were precedents. Many attempts ended very badly: the dogs know no mercy, and the sentries shoot to kill immediately after the warning shot.

Ordinary ration, soldier's ration - in this debate does not differ from any other part.

This part, unlike the others, is divided into two parts: one is ordinary, the second is behind a thorn and sluice doors. In the first - the guard barracks, there is also a "contingent" or "variable composition", but always under the supervision of four submachine gunners. The cartridges in the horns are live, everything is real.

In fact, outwardly, it all looks like an ordinary military unit, and to an outside observer it is not entirely clear what has inspired such horror for many generations of soldiers since the middle of the 19th century, when the first disbats appeared. In fact, this can be understood, probably, only by the one who served. Remember the first two weeks of training? Endless drills, rebounds, lifts, "set aside - for the initial", senseless work to complete exhaustion, drill in the cold or under the scorching sun and not a minute of personal time. So, here everything (and much worse) is ALWAYS, from the first to last day... And no concessions ever. I understand perfectly well that we were shown a glossy picture - everything looks too correct and exemplary: this does not happen in life. I do not know what happens in the barracks at night, when the grate into the sleeping compartment is closed - we must not forget that many of the local inhabitants managed to go through the pre-trial detention center and picked up the traditions there. The officers claim that nothing is happening, and maybe it is, but I don't know that.

V Soviet army there were 16 disbats, in Russia there were 4 not long ago, now there are two left - in Mulino, and on Far East, in Ussuriisk. At the end of the year, the question of their existence will be decided. Are they needed or not? The argument for - it's still not a prison, and the convict's conviction is removed immediately after the end of the term. The argument is against - when switching to a one-year term of conscription, many soldiers who have committed crimes simply do not have time to get here: the term of service expires before the end of the investigation and trial, and they automatically become "clients" of the general criminal punishment system. That is why there are only 170 in the barracks, designed for 800 people, and this is from all over the European part of Russia.

My evaluative opinion: I am in favor of a contract army, but so far it is not, military system penalties are still effective.

And ideally, since the military is judged by a military court, then they should sit in military pre-trial detention centers and military prisons, as, for example, in the States. Regardless of titles and ranks. After all, the army is too separate structure. In 2002-2006. there was already an attempt to cancel the guardhouse, which eventually ended in its restoration. And I, who sat on the “lip” three times (albeit not for long), remember very well what an effective deterrent tool it was.

By the way, for especially talented representatives in the disbat there is its own guardhouse. I can't even imagine what awaits those who got there. It’s probably better not to know.

A disbat is a disciplinary battalion, that is, a special purpose military unit, which includes servicemen who have committed severe disciplinary violations regarding military service.

A separate disciplinary battalion is a special-purpose formation in the armed forces of the Russian Federation. This is a separate military unit where servicemen who have been sentenced for committing criminal offenses during their military service are serving their sentences. Also, cadets of military schools and higher educational institutions until they were awarded the first officer rank.

For what acts are sent to the disbat

Disbats are formed for the purpose of serving sentences by military personnel in accordance with the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. The period of service by the perpetrator in the disciplinary unit is not included in the cumulative period of service military service, the only exceptions are isolated cases (by order of the commander of the military forces of a district or region). That is, a guilty soldier who has served the entire period of punishment for an act committed in disciplinary battalion, then sent for the end of the term of service for the period that remained until the date of his sentencing.

Soldiers and sergeants are sent to separate disbats today to serve a criminal sentence:

• committed criminal offenses during military service;
• sentenced by a military court to such punishment.

Note that after serving the full term in the disbat, servicemen who have fully served their due term of service under the law do not have a documentary record.

The perpetrators are sent to such a battalion exclusively by decision of a military court. Persons liable for military service are sent to these institutions of a correctional nature who have committed criminal acts that are not classified as a grave degree, but which, in accordance with the norms of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, are punishable by imprisonment for up to 2 years. In most cases, the military ends up in the dispute for such misconduct as going AWOL and the use of bullying against newly arrived colleagues.

In disciplinary battalions, the norms of the general military charter are applied, and not the Criminal Procedure Code. In addition to serving a sentence in a disbat, a released soldier is obliged to serve the prescribed term in a regular army unit. Only after that he gets his documents in his hands without a mark on the presence of a criminal record. The key differences between a corrective-type unit and a standard military unit are:

• undeniable adherence to the rules of the charter;
• rigid and clearly established daily routine;
• complete absence of leave.

The awarded compulsory work in the disbat, as a rule, is economic activity.

Features of the organization

In most cases, the total number of disbat is about 300 convicts. The procedure and conditions for the stay of convicted servicemen in a special battalion are regulated by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of June 4, 1997 No. 669 and Order of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation No. 302 of July 29, 1997.

According to this regulations, the time of serving the sentence in the disciplinary battalion is not included in the general term of military service. However, in order to achieve its inclusion, it is necessary to send a petition to the command of the military unit to the name of the commander-in-chief of the military forces of a particular region or district, in whose sphere of control the disciplinary battalion remains. In this document, it is necessary to indicate the reason and the request for the inclusion of the period of stay in the disbat in general period service.

At the same time, while serving a sentence in a special battalion, convicts retain the status of military personnel and wear the shoulder straps of privates. After the convicted person has served 1/3 of the sentence, in case of his excellent behavior, he can be transferred to a detachment of correctives, he can also be allowed to serve in a squad or to perform work outside the military unit (under the supervision of a convoy or without such ).

They are sent to the disbats for various criminal acts against the service: for theft, hazing, and so on. In accordance with the norms of the current legislation, the maximum term for serving a sentence in a disbat is 2 years. In most cases, depending on the severity of the crime, the military court will award a term of 6 to 18 months.

New convicts who have arrived at the disbat go through quarantine without fail upon arrival. Then they go through a month of intensive drill, and only after passing these stages, the convicts are distributed among the companies.

The regime of serving the sentence in the disbat

In addition to daily rigorous drill training, strict adherence to the charter, there are also many restrictions and prohibitions in special battalions. For example, meetings with relatives and loved ones are carried out according to the established schedule, while such visits are designed for only a few hours. All meetings with relatives take place under the supervision of a convoy or controllers.

Transfers from family members are generally not allowed. It is strictly forbidden to bring tea or coffee, as well as alcoholic drinks to the zone. Prohibitions also apply to office supplies. So, in most disbats, convicts are allowed to have one ballpoint pen and two pens, two notebooks and no more than ten envelopes.

From the group of reforming convicts who are distinguished by good behavior, they can be sent to parole.

The disciplinary battalion is not a zone or prison in the direct sense, but it is characterized by the presence of most of the attributes of bondage and imprisonment. Some convicts make attempts to escape, but such attempts in most cases fail. In the event of crossing the border of the zone or the restricted area, such fugitives are caught, after which the term of serving the sentence is added for such misconduct.

Serving a term in the disbat is not recorded in a personal file as a criminal record, therefore it is not taken into account during the period of military service. Therefore, most of the convicts return to their units for the end of the period of service in the army. In some cases, for excellent behavior, the period of imprisonment in the disbat is counted in the service life. Ordinary convicts from a variable composition go into dismissal in the reserve from the disbat, they receive the nickname "bell ringers".

The end of the term of punishment in the disbat

Earlier, after the end of the term of serving the sentence, the soldiers received money and, on their own, traveled to their units to end their army service. However, often during the move, they carried out new criminal acts due to various circumstances. Therefore, in last years released convicts from the special battalion to the unit are sent exclusively under the supervision of a supervising officer or warrant officer. Often, such a wait is delayed due to the lack of responsible employees for supervision or money for business trips. Also, military units can be located in the Far North, from where it takes too long to get, as a result of which convicts often sit out their sentences.

In the special battalion, the movement of convicts and communication between them is limited. For example, it is strictly forbidden to communicate with convicts from other units. Based on this principle, convicts who have received a punishment for committing one crime and accomplices are assigned to different divisions. For the entire period of serving their sentence, they have no right to exchange even a few words. For violation of this rule, they face disciplinary action, and the punishment in the form of a guardhouse located on the territory of the special battalion is also often applied.

In the video about the disciplinary battalion

In most cases, before entering the disbat, convicts serve a certain time in a pre-trial detention center. Therefore, they often adopt not only the manner of speaking, but also the criminal experience from the inmates in the isolation ward. After serving their sentence in the disbat, the convicts are sent to serve their term in the army.

Battalion of exemplary discipline
Being here makes soldiers think about life
2001-03-16 / Ilya KEDROV

50 meters from the gate, an iron strip lying across the road with thorns sticking out of it is striking. On the concrete fence there is an inscription: "Parking is prohibited. If this requirement is not met, the weapon is used to kill." At the top of the fence - barbed wire, at the corners - towers.

Correctional labor colony? No, this is a military unit - the 306th separate disciplinary battalion of the Siberian Military District. However, behind the checkpoint, inside the "perimeter", the disbat does not at all look like a "zone": an ordinary parade ground, ordinary barracks without bars on the windows. In general, the usual military unit. Almost. Out of habit, only the rare discipline of the soldiers is surprising - here the rank and file salute even the sergeants (as, in principle, this is prescribed by the charter) and appearance military personnel: on old-style wadded jackets, the name of its owner is written on the chest, the number of the unit is written on the back and sleeve.

The reduction of the Russian army also affected the disciplinary units. To date, there are four of them, while two battalions are in the Siberian Military District: one in Chita, the other in Novosibirsk. Previously, there were 5 companies in the 306th "Chita" disbat, now there are only two left, plus a guard company. As of February 1, 2001, the battalion's lists included 165 convicts, who are here called "privates of variable composition." They are guarded by 135 people and 16 dogs.

Officially, the 306th ODB "performs the tasks of re-educating convicted servicemen in accordance with the order of the Minister of Defense # 302." Both those who are conscripted in the army and contract soldiers who decided to become professional soldiers before graduation run the risk of getting into the disciplinary battalion. urgent service... The military court sends here for both military and ordinary crimes. The lion's share of military crimes is hazing and abuse of office (there are 82 such convicts in the ODB as of February 1, 2001), as well as the unauthorized abandonment of a unit (31 people). However, in recent years, the number of people convicted of theft has increased (38 people).

Disbat for an offender is actually the last warning, an alternative, milder punishment than in a penal colony. Being in ODB is not yet imprisonment. Staying here does not spoil the biography - after serving the sentence, the conviction of the former "rank-and-file variable staff" lasts only for a year. The minimum sentence for a guilty soldier is 2 months, the maximum is 2 years. However, "monthly business trips" are not very popular with military lawyers: out of 165 convicted in the 306th ODB, only twelve have a six-month term (no less). Basically, they sit for a year or two.

The time spent by a soldier in the military battalion is not counted in the conscription period, however, in the form of a reward for good behavior, the commander of the district, to whom this military unit is directly subordinate, can make an exception by his order. But the exception has actually become the rule, and therefore, leaving the gates of the disbat, the soldier goes home.

There are, however, people who manage to get into the disciplinary unit again. In 1999, one person re-entered the 306th ODB, in 2000 - two. All of them before the second "call" after a short stay in the battalion were released under an amnesty, and, apparently, the short term of punishment did not add to their wits. The officers remember one incorrigible fighter who managed to get into the dispute three times.

If during the war the penalty boxers washed away their guilt with blood, then in peacetime the personnel of the disbat - then, since the main occupation of the "privates of variable composition" is unloading coal for the Chita garrison. It must be said that the labor productivity of convicts is the highest. For example, from ordinary units, in order to throw a coal, 15 soldiers are required on the car, and from the disbat four are allocated for the same job, and they can cope with it in 4 hours. Convicts are also sent to a military food factory, a military fur farm, to harvest vegetables at a military state farm, to unload wagons with food in the interests of the same Chita garrison.

In addition to work, the convicts, under the leadership of the sergeant, strenuously trample the parade ground, seeking high degree mastery in the execution of marching techniques, study regulations and undergo national training. The sergeants - squad commanders and assistants to platoon commanders, in total there are 21 people in the battalion - belong to the permanent composition of the unit. These are ordinary conscripts who are personally selected by the battalion command at the Chita regional assembly point. A candidate for the permanent composition of the disbat should not have problems with the law in civilian life, as well as convicted relatives. The battalion officers pay attention to the physical, moral and business qualities of conscripts.

Sergeants with convicts all day - from wake up to lights out, conduct classes with them, go to work. The sergeant also writes a report on unconvoy movement. "Raskonvoy" is one of the forms of encouragement, when people go outside the unit not accompanied by armed escorts, but only with a sergeant. This award can be awarded to someone who has already served a third of his sentence, is distinguished by exemplary behavior, and also passed off tests according to statutes and general civil training.

The experience of the disbat is also used for educational work in the troops. A video was shot about this part, which is shown in parts of the Siberian Military District. The commanders of the military unit of the Chita garrison lead "excursions" here: from 20 to 40 people of notorious violators of discipline. The battalion command tells about the conditions of detention, explains what the convicts are doing. The "guests" are taken to the guardhouse, to the parade ground, where at this time drills are held and tactical techniques are performed - dashes and crawling. Then, in the club, former colleagues who got into the dispatch battalion, face to face - the officers come out at the same time - explain to the "excursionists" that it is really better not to get here.

With the permission of the battalion command, I was able to talk with one of the "privates of variable composition."

Please tell me what is your name, what year of birth are you?

Shelekhov Vasily. Born on December 15, 1980. Drafted from the Republic of Buryatia on December 24, 1998. He served 16 months before committing the crime.

What was he sentenced for?

Article 335, part two, hazing. Was a senior in the dining room, beat up a subordinate. For a whole month I was in dress, because there were no people. I also left part of it without permission.

Why?

He worked part-time: he sold newspapers, traded in the market. Mom was left without work, I wanted to help her.

And why did he beat a subordinate?

Because he did not want to fulfill his duties.

Was anyone from your unit in the disbat?

Not at all.

Have you ever heard of a disbat?

That's right, I heard.

Does it sound like what they said?

They lied a lot ... But so ... it looks like.

How do they treat you here?

Good. The food is good. Cigarettes are given out. On New Year the command arranged a festive dinner. There were cakes, cookies, jellied meat. The food is good.

Have you ever been to a local guardhouse?

Yes sir.

Why did you get there?

An attempt at a bullying relationship. He pushed a colleague, he pushed me. Both were punished. For 5 days.

Did you draw any conclusions for yourself after serving in the disbat?

Here you begin to understand that your parents are waiting for you at home. Here you begin to see your life further.

What are you going to do after the army?

I'll go to work at a pulp and cardboard mill. It's good that they were sent to the disbat. After a year, the criminal record is automatically removed, and all this will be forgotten. I will tell my relatives and children that we are not judged.

What do you think, is it still worth going into conflict with the law?

No, the criminal life was enough. I learned a lot here. I began to think about life, I grew up. There is no such thing in the troops ... Although it is better there, of course. When I return home, I will tell the guys who have not yet been in the army that it is not necessary to use hazing relationships, that it is better to serve in the army.

And here are the scanty lines from the personal file of the convicted Shelekhov: "... on November 27, 1999 at 20.00 in the dining room of military unit 26001 Shelekhov, violating Article 16 of the RF Armed Forces Charter and Article 3 of the RF Armed Forces Disciplinary Charter, violated the statutory rules of relations between For allegedly poor work in the dining room, he found fault with his colleague Mavlyudkolov, with whom he was not in a subordinate relationship. in a boot, on the shin, from which the latter felt pain.On December 4, 1999, Shelekhov in the dining room, trying to force Mavlyudkolov to do the work, with the same purpose, together with Yulenkov (currently convicted, the sentence has entered into legal force) deliberately inflicted one on Mavlyudkolov a blow to the chest with a fist, and one blow to the back, inflicting beatings.On December 12, he in the canteen for poor work, with the same purpose, struck Mavlyudkolov about Dean punch on the head. On December 25, at 20.00, Shelekhov, with the same aim for poor dishwashing, struck Mavlyudkolov one blow in the face, one blow in the stomach and one blow with a foot, shod in boots, on the shin, inflicting beatings on the victim. As a result of the deed, he caused the victim multiple bruises of the soft tissues of the face and extremities, which were not regarded as causing harm to health. On February 6, he left the unit without permission. On February 10, wishing to earn money and help his parents, he voluntarily left the unit. "

I will not undertake to comment on either the words of Vasily Shelekhov or his case. Apparently, the chief of staff of the battalion, Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Danilov, is right when he says that his charges are boys who have committed a crime only out of stupidity. From this point of view, it is good that disciplinary battalions exist at all. A real "zone" would ruin these guys' lives forever.

Disbat - it sounds, you see, harsh. Almost the same as the penal battalion of the times of the war, which was thrown into the most hopeless areas of battles - in order to atone with blood for misdeeds before the Motherland. In today's peacetime, there are only two disciplinary battalions left in Russia. And, of course, no one redeems anything with the blood in them. Though rumors of dire conditions stay in disbat is passed on in the soldier's environment by word of mouth. This is now a kind of army correctional institution of a strict regime.

On Tuesday, the Separate Disciplinary Battalion No. 28 celebrates its 25th anniversary (until 1986 it was a disciplinary company).

Shortage

Soldiers from neighboring units are specially brought to us for an excursion, '' grins the battalion's deputy commander in educational work Major Alexander Ilchenko. “We show them the real conditions in which convicts are serving time. As the commanders tell later, after such an excursion, the soldiers sacredly honor the military service regulations and are not eager to get to us as clients.

In fact, the 28th Separate Disciplinary Battalion in Mulino (this Nizhny Novgorod Region, the famous Gorokhovets training ground - the largest in Europe) looks like an ordinary military unit. Checkpoint, barracks, parade ground, sports camp ... And - barbed wire, towers, vicious dogs, barrage systems like in a prison, three levels of protection. On this side of the disbat there is a guard company (freemen), on the other side there is a zone for persons temporarily staying (convicts). The gap between them is huge, although both here and there are soldiers of the same age.

A soldier in a security company is selected at the stage of conscription - with a stable psyche. The loads are colossal. One hundred guards a year is the norm. Almost daily activities with convicts are also not sugar. It is no coincidence that soldiers and officers here receive a bonus "for special conditions of service."

Now we have 162 people serving sentences for committing crimes, - according to the military, he clearly reports. O. battalion commander, Major Vitaly Yudakov. - There are 800 employees in total.

So you have a shortage? Can I report vacancies in the disbat? - we ask the major.

We are always glad to accept new clients, - Vitaly Anatolyevich reacts to the joke. - Here the military court decides who will be our wards.

The main contingent in the disbat is those convicted under Article 335. These are hazing relationships - "bullying" in all its manifestations. There is also "theft", "extortion", "illegal abandonment of the unit", and a little less often "desertion".

Refused to wash the barracks ...

Sergei Grigoriev was brought to Mulino from Volgograd, where he served in one of the Air Force units. The boy looks gloomily from under frowning eyelids and still, it seems, does not fully understand - where he got to. Sergei has the 232nd article, part 1 - double failure to comply with the order, 6 months in prison.

For what time did you get it? - I ask him.

He refused to wash the floors in the barracks ...

Grigoriev is from Abkhazia, where washing floors is not considered a man's business. The Russian boy adopted the "laws of the mountains" and now he will have to study the "laws of disbat" for six months. Cleaning the toilet should seem like a pleasure to him ...

Valery Bedrizov, who has been here for almost a year, has a different story. He, the sergeant, sent a company orderly, a soldier of his draft, to clean up the toilet. He sent it in three letters.

I don't know what came over me then. Flared up in general and hit him, - Valera blushes.

The blow of the boxing sergeant was delivered professionally - a colleague's spleen was torn. Bedrizov was given two years of disbat ...

Before the service, the 24-year-old guy managed to graduate from a construction college in Perm, work as a construction superintendent and build three 17-storey residential buildings. Here, in the disbat, Valera has already earned himself a light regime and has the right to leave the zone without an accompanying submachine gunner. Most likely in a month or two he will be eligible for parole - parole.

I will work at home in my specialty, I need to compensate for 100 thousand rubles of damage to the victim, - says Valera. - I regret that it happened, but the disbat taught me a lot ...

What is the corrective power of the disbat? They don't beat me here, they don't scoff, they don't throw them into the cesspool, even the guardhouse (an analogue of a punishment cell) was free on the day of our arrival.

We simply force the convicts to live according to the charter and fill every minute with classes, ”says Major Yudakov.

There are many things to do. If this is drill - constant shagistika on the parade ground, so much so that the stars float before our eyes. If physical training - then up to the seventh sweat. Studying the charter - so that every line bounces off the teeth. Plus cleaning the barracks without a hint of hack. For the slightest refusal - a guardhouse, the presence in which is not taken into account in the term of serving the sentence - every day postpones release. Nobody wants to sit, it's better to do everything without a murmur. So they do it - absolutely everyone, even the "proud and independent" Caucasians.

Caucasians - more than half

The representatives of the North Caucasus in the disbat are more than half *, 96 people out of 162. Most of them are Dagestanis. The statistics are alarming indeed. V Russian army now there are about a million people serving. Slightly more than 20 thousand of them are Caucasians - this is 2%. There are 59% of convicted highland soldiers in the Mulino disbat **.

We do not have differences based on ethnicity, ”emphasizes Major Vitaly Yudakov. - Here everyone is scrubbing and toilets, and lard is eaten under the same conditions. Friendship of peoples, so to speak, in miniature.

On the territory of the disbat there is an Orthodox church and a prayer room for Muslims. On Thursdays, the convicts are visited by Fr Georgy and Fr Vladimir, and on Fridays by Mullah Mansur Hazrat. By the way, the church was built here with their own hands from scrap materials. But getting into the ranks of believers is not easy, just a statement that you cannot live without prayer is not enough. Only those who have no violations are allowed to go to church.

There is also a significant plus in the correction of the disbat - a mark on a criminal record is not put on a military card. Only entry in the column " last place service "- military unit 12801.

After the disciplinary battalion, when applying for a job, our clients calmly write in the questionnaire “we are not judged,” says Major Alexander Ilchenko. - By the way, only 5% of former members of the disbat go to crime later. The rest prefer to live by the laws. This also says a lot.

Rusichi ROOIVS

- this, you see, sounds very harsh. Similar to the penal battalion of the Second World War, to which soldiers were sent to the most hopeless areas of hostilities in order to atone for misdeeds before the Motherland with their blood. To date, there are only two disciplinary battalions left in Russia, one of which is the 28th separate disciplinary battalion located in Mulimo, which will be discussed in this article. The disciplinary battalion is not a prison at all, it is a kind of corrective military unit. Serving at 28 Moulinsky disbat 2 types of personnel - variable composition (prisoners) and permanent composition (warders).

All existing military personnel of variable composition are the contingent that is directly located within the entire period. They get inside the disbat for a different period of time, the minimum period is 3 months and the maximum is 2 years. Currently in part 28 Moulinsky disbat there are about 170 "guests" out of 800 possible and designated places.

Some people who know a lot about everything that happens in the disbat explained: to go to the disbat is not an easy task. In short, in disciplinary battalion quite a few "stumbled by accident", most of those people are in prison who, by their own efforts, have induced a rather dubious "authority" on themselves.

The army is not an organization for weighing or outweighing anything, definitely established measures, and not a special squad of right-flank scouts, the army is a huge organization, inside which a large number of the most stupid and strange violations constantly occur.

Who serves in the disbat?

In the disbat, most of those who allowed themselves, so to speak, hazing. In other words, such relationships are referred to as "anniversary" or "hazing". One of the most common forms of bullying is the beating and mutilation of co-workers. In addition to the "executors", the number of people, so to speak, "Sochi residents" (SOCH - stands for unauthorized abandonment of a unit) is also quite large. In general, there are not a large number of existing articles, according to which servicemen in the army are convicted, and are in a variable composition.

V disbate there are former violent people, such as - thieves, hooligans without ideas and meaning, robbers, and simply, excuse the expression, - fools. And there are no cruel murderers, rapists and other dangerous criminals. For all such fierce soldiers who have managed to commit a very serious crime, there are separate kinds of specialized institutions.

Only rank-and-file soldiers are stationed in existing companies. Past well-deserved honorary titles, merits and distinctions do not count towards any credit. An excellent shooter, a sailor, a border guard or just a "kolyanukha" - everyone is accepted on an equal basis into the "organization" of a specialized disciplinary battalion. All, without any exception, enrolled in disbat they cut their hair "baldly" and change into a uniform that is specially designed by the existing charter.

What are the regulations of the disciplinary battalion?

Inside the most guarded perimeter in the disbat, there are grilles on all windows, buffer-type gates made mainly of metal mesh and other essential restrictions. The sleeping quarters in the barracks section are separated by a metal lattice door, which is locked. In the event that at night the fighter has an urge to use the toilet, then he needs to check in according to the established list, and go to the toilet alone, all alone. At night, it is strictly forbidden for two to go to the toilet, only one at a time. Outside, the variable composition of soldiers is guarded by other military personnel - from the so-called permanent composition. In addition to the guard of the shooters, at the post, the dissidents are guarded by service, trained German shepherds in all the necessary and useful skills.
