Russian, Soviet, and Russian military humor is quite original and unique! It is no wonder that works by Alexander Pokrovsky, Yuri Kortkov, Andrey Konstantinov, and Konstantin Zakutaev are so popular nowadays. In modern Russian military prose, storytelling about military service goes hand in hand with sparkling humor! It is military humor that helps overcome the hardships and deprivations of military service, the loss of friends and comrades in modern military conflicts, and allows one to remain human!
Surely, the reader has heard the saying, 'Those who served in the army do not laugh at the circus!' To understand its meaning, one must serve for a year, two, ten, twenty, thirty years! The author served in the Armed Forces for thirty calendar years. His military fate was typical for thousands of other soldiers at the turn of two eras at the end of the 20th century. The book aims to interest readers with subtle observations of the peculiarities of service in different garrisons, branches of the armed forces, and types of troops. These observations are presented in the form of humorous sketches, anecdotes about the army. Particularly valuable are the memories, observations, associated with meetings with interesting people. Metropolitan Pitirim, Marshals Yazov and Kutakhov, Generals Makhov, Bespalov, Bezborodov - they and other heroes of army stories will appear before readers in an unusual light. Some plots were observed or experienced personally, others were suggested by comrades. Thus, this collection of anecdotes, or stories that could happen to any of us, was compiled.
