Reservists continue to be called up

Within the ongoing conscription of reservists in Belarus, attention is focused on rehabilitating combat experience and strengthening the spirit of comradely responsibility.

Reservist private Pavel Lobach noted: "Everything at the training is organized at the highest level. In my unit, there are friendly people: commanders and comrades are ready to help with words and deeds. I am proud that today I have become a true defender of the Fatherland. Now February 23 is truly my holiday."

Reserve corporal Dmitry Grishchenko added: "I try to set an example for my son of fulfilling military duty. We must protect the Motherland: who else if not us!"

Nikolai Akulinsky also stated: "When the invitation to the training came, I didn't have conflicting emotions. They said it was necessary—so it was necessary. Everyone should be able to protect their Motherland. My goal is to recall everything I could do before and learn new equipment. I've met many people; everyone is in a combat-ready mood and positive. And by the way, the food is very good!"

Alexander Baldenko shared: "There were no problems arriving. We were accommodated, changed clothes—everything is fine, everything is normal. We recalled old times. Here I met former comrades-in-arms with whom I served in various positions. The new uniform and gear—everything is comfortable, everything is good."

Stationery supplies and commanders' support help reservists quickly regain skills and once again feel the support of their comrades, emphasizing personal responsibility for the Motherland's security.
