Disciplinary Charter of the Armed Forces of the USSR. Sibirsk Volgota Charter of the internal service of the USSR


Sailor in casual uniform

Sailor(Dutch matroos, - military rank of enlisted personnel of the Russian Navy. Introduced in 1946 instead of the rank of Red Navy man. There is also the rank of senior seaman. In the Russian fleet there were ranks: sailor of the 2nd article (a recruit who had just taken the oath) and sailor of the 1st article (served for more than a year).

Origin of the word

Comes from French. matelot “sailor”, which, in turn, comes from Middle Dutch. matten-noot. In the form of matrosa (pl.) found in Peter I, 1694; also with Radishchev; in the form of a sailor - from Kurakin, 1705. Borrowed. via Goll. matroos (pl. matrozen).

Story

Until the 18th century, the system of naval ranks was quite conventional and ranks were more positions (or ranks) than ranks in the modern sense of the word. However, even then (under Peter the Great) the word “ matroz ».
Around 1706, a division appeared into sailors of the first, second, third and fourth articles. Moreover, the first article was the highest among sailors, the fourth was the lowest.
In the Naval Charter of 1720, the division no longer occurs into 4 articles, but into two: Sailor of the first article and sailor of the second article. At the same time, as before, “sailor” is a rank designating an ordinary deck crew, and not all junior sailors on ships. So, for example, sailors of the second article in the charter were placed next to other junior ranks - dekjunga, kayutunga, trumpeter, sailing apprentice, provos. and the sailors of the first article stood next to the first trumpeter, the first professional
In the Table of Ranks of 1722 the familiar word “ sailor » Since 1732, the word “sailor” has been used to describe all ordinary ranks on ships, above which come non-commissioned officers.
In 1764, sailors were again divided into 4 articles - from the lowest fourth to the highest first. However, in 1798, the division of sailors into 2 articles returned.
This division lasted until the revolution of 1917, after which, along with numerous other changes, the word “sailor” was replaced by the word “red navy”
In 1940, another “senior red naval officer” was added to that rank. Together they designate the entire rank and file of sailors on ships (i.e. changing the name did not change the essence).
In 1943, the reverse renaming took place and junior ranks have since been called “sailor” and “senior sailor”. The same names were preserved in the fleet of the Russian Federation.

Military rank sequence

On July 30, a new charter of the Soviet Army was adopted, society became increasingly militarized, and all films featured positive military men or cops. With minor corrections, the document was valid until the very end of the union, since the real ideals were precisely those of the martinet; I present the most significant excerpts in the documentary section of the chronicles.

Approved by the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR of July 30, 1975
DISCIPLINARY CHARTER OF THE ARMED FORCES OF THE USSR
(with amendments and additions introduced by Decrees of the Presidium of the USSR Armed Forces

from 03/18/1985 - Gazette of the USSR Armed Forces, 1985, No. 12, art. 199)

The Armed Forces of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics are called upon to defend the freedom and independence of our Motherland, to defend its state interests, and to ensure the peaceful creative work of the Soviet people building communism. To fulfill its historical mission, the Soviet Armed Forces must be in constant combat readiness.

The most important condition for combat effectiveness and constant combat readiness of troops is high military discipline. Its role is especially great in achieving victory in modern war. “To win... you need iron, military discipline” (V.I. Lenin).

Military discipline in the Soviet Armed Forces is based on the high political consciousness of military personnel, their deep understanding of their patriotic duty, the international tasks of our people, and their selfless devotion to their Soviet Motherland, the Communist Party and the Soviet government. But conviction does not exclude the use of coercive measures against military personnel who are negligent in fulfilling their military duty.

All commanders (chiefs) are obliged to maintain high military discipline in units and subunits on a daily basis, strictly guided by the requirements of this Charter.

MILITARY OATH
