Russian Army Basic Training Graduation Parade Summer 2007

A company sized unit marches onto the parade ground and soldiers individually take an oath. Then the troops pass in review by platoons in line while the band plays a lively march. July 2007

Those Russian army guys are hardcore!

Their cover & alignment while marching looked pretty sloppy.

They need some German NCOs to teach them basic drill.

Damn the D & C looks like poop.

@RJHOLMES2009 They have Naval Infantry. This may or may not be same as VDV.

@RJHOLMES2009 The closest similarity would be the VDV, they are Airborne instead of Marine though. But they have similar tradition and similar role. They are first to fight, they are a brotherhood, there instructors are similar to drill sergeants, they are broken down in the same manner. Look them up. They have had many famous last stand engagements as well. look up Battle for Hill 3234 and Battle for Height 776, these battles are some of which have given them legendary status in modern warfare.

There is no need to boast about whos better or who has a tougher boot camp. I just finished 15 years in the Marine corps and I have nothing but respect for them. They may be conscipts, but they didnt dodge their duty. Russia's military may be a shadow of what it was during the cold war, but its not these guys fault. They have horrible officers and their government neglects them. I heard recently that they were given dog food for rations. Thats messed up.

@RJHOLMES2009 Yes, but they are not so good as American, if you compared US Marine Core to Russian force brach, those would be AIrborne Troops, they are badass like US Marines.

@coloradiangrl88 Oh,and remember immigrants can join their Army,all they need to do is sign a letter of command that you'll take orders from them.

[rmorecook]

@cda47 I sure do disagree with you. These guys are a bunch of draftees, and their parents have shown up to celebrate them. The band is small but I think quite good

[Nadianva]
