Ends the bloodiest war in the history of mankind. The soviet union emerged with the strongest army in the world. Such heroism and devotion, and spiritual power that characterizes our army, the world didn't know.

After the war, the armed potential enemy's own means of nuclear assault. The ministry of defence and the general staff of the Soviet army have developed and made the idea of a mobile and effective offensive and reconnaissance units. The basis for their creation was the operational intelligence survey. At the same time, many foreign armies has revived or created units of special purpose according to type of american "Green berets". This precipitated the formation of brigades Specnazu in the Soviet army. All of the brigade were from the first days directly subordinate to the GRU directorate of the general staff VS of the USSR. Between tasks in case of armed conflict include: attacks against enemy targets of strategic designation, reconnaissance, sabotage, the deployment of the partisan movement in the enemy territory, the confused chain of command and work in the rear.

On the basis of the directives of the general staff of the armed forces of the USSR № 140 547 of 19. June 1962 in the crew of Mary Gorka started to form 5. brigade of special purpose.

training:
In the 70's.-80. years Mariinogorská brigade was a test polygon of the Soviet Specnazu, all the latest types of Specnazovské weaponry and equipment of the GRU directorate of the general staff VS of the USSR with the boost in the quiet of Mary Gorce.


A lot has been worked in the brigade for the development of a survey for this purpose was created by the company, at its inception stood a significant captain D's. Kabašnikov and B. Kandybovič. Now the unit in charge of colonel Igor Jacenko. The unit was formed in 1987 by a directive of the chief of the GRU of the soviet armed forces. In the framework of the 5. Fig SPN appeared absolutely unique and the most elite unit Specnazu - a special company for special purposes. Consisted only of officers and warrant officers, well-trained experts. The company was intended for the most serious tasks in the interest of GRU. They took the best of the best. Required knowledge of foreign languages, the soldiers walked at the rate of light underwater movement, modeled after the training of the maritime Specnazu, mountain training, training pilots of hang gliders and much more. In 1991, a special company came to the highest level of training for officers and warrant officers. Training was on the level of training of special forces "Vympel" from the KGB. In 1989, in recognition of the peculiarities and professionalism of the minister of defence has authorized the company to his own personal patch on the sleeve - black fox and nahrudní badge. For the soviet army it was an unusual event. In the section were veterans from the war in Afghanistan -- "Afghans", between the commanders, they were also masters in military sports.

"At that time they were the chosen people for the command sent to the Rjazaňské school of the AIRBORNE troops, vševojskové to Kiev, in the school of ensigns. Level of training of intelligence officers confirmed the high natural outcome for all exercises. After the fall of the Ussr really didn't get trained people. They had to learn combat skills of explorers, working from scratch, from the beginning in place, on my own. And despite the external and internal conditions, the degree of training of the units remained at a high level, and not only within Belarus, but also countries of the CIS. This is evidenced by the evaluation of the leadership of the special intelligence service of the GRU in Russia.
The spirit which is inherent in the application of this section is and will be! And will forever remain with us the name of the "junior company", because the idea of officer's honor and dignity is still the main criterion when each explorer section. "
Colonel N. Yatsenko.



Shortly before the fall of the Soviet union 5. OBrSPN has received about two dozen motor gliders. To Ukraine, to the plant Antonov drove for them the captain Even. Očkin. The first pilots were trained in Moscow.

The best flight instructor was first lieutenant And. Titov. He was the first in the Armed forces of the USSR who picked up the glider into the sky and the first jumped with his parachute from the glider captain And. Zaričnyj. It should be noted that such jumps of 150 meters - it is a dwarf height and really risky. Already in the following jumps were also others, such as staršij sergeant, master parašutního of sport Natalya Kučina. Has more than 3 thousand jumps a parachute.

Specnazovci govern not only their own methods of fighting without weapons, drops a parachute, but can be many kilometers deep behind enemy lines to land on the glider. Six years ago, is revived preparation of soldiers rogalistů, thanks to the enthusiasts in the matter, elder ensign With. Kvicinskému.

For the first time in the history of the Specnazu in our brigade have mastered the dropping of the cargo on discarded backup parachutes for the paratroopers Of the-5. The idea belongs to major And. Agejevu. Delivery of goods at the lowest altitude, the reliable opening of the parachute, the accuracy of the landing - all developed and tested the majors Even. Kazakevič, And. Zaričnyj, lieutenant colonel And. Andreyev, and many other officers and warrant officers VDS..
