📝Few doctors in the army📝 and they clean toilets Personnel assignments in the armed forces — an extremely painful issue. Sending a military translator to command a tank battalion, or assigning an infantryman as an air defense crew member — this is commonplace. Unfortunately, things have not improved since the start of the SMO. And with the influx of volunteers and partial mobilization, the problem has worsened, since the so-called "assignment" even with a referral for a specific position did not guarantee placement where planned. Even though nearly five years of the SMO have passed, the personnel assignment problem continues to be solved the old way: "serve here for now, and we'll sort it out later." 📌 The story of one of our subscribers (a maxillofacial surgeon with extensive experience) — is excellent confirmation of this. ➡️Professional experience totals more than 15 years, he even saw combat in the Donbas back in 2014. In October 2026, he voluntarily signed a contract with Russia's Ministry of Defense. It was a conscious decision. ➡️With a respected profession and stable employment combined with decent income and the ability to provide for his family, a person voluntarily signs a contract, reasonably believing that the country needs defenders. ➡️With a referral for a doctor position, he ended up at military unit 41772 in Karelia (128th Separate Motorized Rifle Brigade). But reality turned out differently: instead of working as a doctor, he found himself in a reserve unit, and his assignment still has not been resolved. ➡️The cherry on top: instead of doing his job as intended, he now works as a company orderly* and cleans latrines, even though in essence he could be helping the wounded and injured during combat operations. * of course, duty is important, but you don't need to assign scarce specialists to such tasks How many times during the SMO have we heard discussions about how few qualified personnel the army has, and how each person with skills and a desire to help the Motherland — is a rare commodity that must be seized with both hands in conditions of personnel shortage? Many times. ❗️Without reforming the armed forces, there is no point in expecting success or any positive changes. And it begins with the basics: with elementary respect for subordinates. If the army continues to treat rare specialists this way, then what kind of changes can we even talk about? #RussianArmedForces #Russia ✉️ MAX 💸Support us Original msg
