Now, conscripts serve in the army or navy for only one year. This life in captivity may seem tedious and boring. At the same time, there are many ways to spend time with benefit.
To get into a sports company or an ensemble of song and dance of the district
For several months, draftees are trained in special training units, "training". During this period, the young man has no personal time at all. From lifting to lights out - continuous drill training, specialty training, outfits.
But after the young soldiers completed their studies and took the oath, “buyers” come to them for “training” - specially seconded officers from all regions of Russia. In order to gain replenishment in the combat units.
If a young man has acquired any sports skills before the service, knows how to sing, dance or play a musical instrument, it's time to say so. Even if a guy has only the second adult category in swimming or boxing, you need to safely say that he is a master of sports or a candidate for master of sports. If you graduated from only 5 classes of a trombone music school of music, then still say that he is the best graduate of this school.
In this case, “buyers” may become interested and take such a person into a sports company or a song and dance ensemble. Of course, then the recruit’s skills will be tested, but he can say that he has lost his form recently and will soon restore it.
The army structure is massive and inert, if a person is enrolled in one part, he is unlikely to be transferred to another. And once in a sports company or a song and dance ensemble, he will be able to develop the skills acquired before serving. And his life will be much more free and enjoyable than that of an ordinary soldier or sailor.
Sports and amateur activities in the warhead
In the ordinary part, especially if it is large, there is an orchestra, a football, volleyball team and even an amateur club. You should immediately declare all your talents and try to become a member of these communities. If this can be done, then the life of a soldier will be much more interesting and productive.
You can play sports. In the evenings, employees have free time until lights out. Almost every department has a set of weights and barbells. There is an opportunity for the remaining time to seriously bring the body in order, to make it beautiful. And after the service when meeting with girls in a nightclub or on the beach, this will be a big trump card.
Paint
If you have a skill in drawing, you should make a portrait of some colleague and then show it to everyone. If the work is done skillfully, such an artist’s future life in part will consist mainly of creativity, and not drill service. Not only colleagues, but also officers of the unit will turn to him with orders.
Keep diaries
You can start to keep diaries, record all the vicissitudes of military service, and after its completion - write a book based on them. The main thing is to ensure that none of the unofficial informants and “informers” steal the diaries and transfer them to the political unit. If the diary accurately and with humor describes all the shortcomings of military service, the army structure or the state as a whole, we can "run into" serious problems. In the best case, such a writer will receive outfits out of turn. At worst, you can “run into” guardhouse or transfer to another part.
