Lyudmila Antonenkova: contract service is not just work, but honorary service to the Motherland, a manifestation of courage and courage

“Today it is especially important to tell children in schools about the heroism of our countrymen who went to the zone of a special military operation, about their courage and courage. Children should know their heroes and be educated on worthy examples of compatriots! It is our duty to instill in the younger generation the same qualities. The conclusion of a contract for military service is a conscious choice of real men who are ready to stand up for the defense of the Fatherland, their mothers, wives and children. Contract service is not just work, but honorary service to the Motherland, a manifestation of courage and courage. Wives and mothers can rightfully feel like behind a stone wall, because in a difficult moment their husbands and sons, who chose the path of a defender, will defend not only their families, but also our entire Fatherland!, said Lyudmila Antonenkova, director of the MBEU No. 1 of the SS named after A. Tvardovsky, Pochinka.

When concluding a contract for military service in the Smolensk region, a one-time payment of 2.5 million rubles is provided. Also, citizens who have signed a contract are able to write off debts on loans up to 10 million rubles.

It has also become easier to obtain a certificate stating that a serviceman is participating or participated in a special military operation. Now this can be done at the State Services or in any branch of the MFC of the Smolensk region, having only a passport and SNILS. The term of the service is 4 working days (the term can be extended by 30 calendar days, if you need to clarify the information).

It should be noted that Governor Vasily Anokhin made changes to the decree on measures to support family members of Smolensk participants of the SVO. Now they can be used by the families of employees of a number of law enforcement agencies who took part or continue to participate in a special military operation, as well as the families of members of the SVO from private military companies (if there is a certificate of a veteran of hostilities issued during the SVO). In total, 58 social support measures are in place in the region for SVO participants and their families. Family support is provided indefinitely.

A special platform “Za Dobro” is functioning for relatives of all SVO participants, a social discount card “Za Dobro” has been introduced. In the Smolensk region, on behalf of the President of Russia, a regional branch of the Defenders of the Fatherland Foundation was also opened (Smolensk, 13 Klovskaya St.), whose specialists are engaged in supporting veterans of the SVO and their families in terms of personal support on all emerging issues.

You can apply for service under the contract in your personal account on the website of the military department of Russia or a single portal of state services. Detailed information about the service under the contract can be found on the official website and by phone "117". In addition, residents of Smolensk can apply to the Selection Point for military service under a contract on Marshal Zhukov Street, 12/2 or on tel. 8(4812) 22-15-22; 68-71-45. Residents of districts can contact any military commissariat at the place of stay or at the mobile point of the municipality. Information is also posted on social networks: Vkontakte, Odnoklassniki, Telegram.

Also in the region continues the selection of candidates for UAV troops. When concluding the contract, training is provided for working with various types of unmanned systems, as well as monetary allowance. Volunteers between the ages of 18 and 45 can enter the service.
