1982 - 1993

As a result of the scientific and technological revolution, the transition to a qualitatively new level of weapons development, the introduction of the latest technologies, serious changes in the strategy and tactics of armed struggle have led to the tightening of requirements for the stability, efficiency and security of control at all levels and in the control and communications subsystems. Marshal of the Signal Corps A.I. Belov writes: “Communication is the heart of the command and control system. We were faced with the task of creating an integrated automated command and control system for all types of strategic weapons. The communication system determines the face of any army. , its foundations are communication and automated control systems. At the end of the 70s, the organizational and technical principles for the construction and operation of the data exchange system of the automated control system of the Armed Forces were practically implemented on the new principles of message switching, its interface with other automated systems. " Therefore, it was necessary to train specialists for the signal troops who could effectively use computer technology in their professional activities, competently operate the complexes of automated command and control systems, automated means and communication complexes that were coming into service.
The Chief of Communications of the Armed Forces of the USSR - Deputy Chief of the General Staff - Marshal of the Signal Corps A.I. Belov, decided to create departments of "Automated command and control systems for troops and communications" in all command communications schools, including the RVVKUS. In terms of control over the implementation of this order on the basis of the school under the leadership of the Marshal of the Signal Corps A.I. Belov held meetings of the leadership of the troops and higher educational institutions of communications. He repeatedly came to the school, where he not only got acquainted with the organization of the educational process, but also participated in special tactical exercises held at the Selets training center. During inspections, Marshal A.I. Belov delved deeply into the problems of improving the training of communications officers. Marshal emphasized that scientific and technological progress causes the acceleration of equipping the signal troops with the latest technology. At the departments of RVVKUS, he got acquainted with how teachers instill in cadets skills in mastering modern communication technology. During the State examinations, Marshal I.O. Belov meticulously and at the same time benevolently checked to what extent the knowledge and skills of graduates corresponded to the requirements for a communications officer. On the solemn day of graduation, Marshal of the Communications Troops A.I. Belov personally presented diplomas and with a kind word admonished the young lieutenants. He emphasized: "The commander in the army is responsible for his subordinates and their actions. Mistakes and shortcomings of a subordinate are your mistakes and shortcomings. This approach underlies army discipline and the officer's code of honor." A graduate of the school, lieutenant colonel of the reserve E.I. Smolin, remembered the meeting with Marshal of the Signal Corps A.I. Belov: “I was introduced to him as the youngest“ Honorary Radio Operator ”. , and especially the specifics and organization of communications in the airborne troops.
The fulfillment of the tasks set by the time for the preparation of a new generation of signal officers was entrusted to Major General Aseev A.A., who commanded the school from 1982 to 1986. He went through all the steps of the career ladder in the army. Provided communications for Marshal G.K. Zhukov, Marshal V.G. Kulikov, worked for many years together with Marshal A.I. Belov. Even in the lieutenant's time, when fate brought him together in Hungary in 1956 with G.K.
The new head of the school paid special attention to the organization of work on the selection of candidates. He wrote: “If earlier the stake was placed on the youth who were selected for us in units and military commissariats, now we are looking for and finding worthy people ourselves. The main work on the search, study and selection of candidates has been transferred directly to the school, and is being She is constantly all year.
The press, radio, and television were used for the military-professional orientation of young people. The command of the school organized Open Days, patronage work was actively carried out in schools, vocational schools. Representatives of the RVVKUS traveled to other cities, military units, military registration and enlistment offices. On the ground, the main attention was paid not to the propaganda of the school, but to the study of young people, there was a search for those who had the necessary data for successful study. The propaganda work carried out by the cadets during their internship in the troops had a considerable effect. The quality of the selection of candidates was evidenced by the fact that for a number of years not a single cadet was expelled from the school.
One of the best cadets was A. Kulakov, who decided to become an officer while still at school and entered the school. He achieved significant success in his studies, became an excellent student, helped his comrades to master the subjects they studied. Soon he was entrusted with the command of the department, with which he successfully coped. Yu.Frolov, a student of the 14th secondary school, dreamed of entering the RVVKUS and worked hard for the entrance exams. After entering, he became an excellent student, enjoyed well-deserved prestige among his comrades and officers. For success in studies and military service, Yu. Frolov was awarded the rank of sergeant and appointed deputy platoon commander. His platoon became one of the best in the school, in which Sergeant Yu. Frolov was also a great merit. A conscientious attitude to studies, a thorough study of military communications technology allowed R. Burnashev and S. Gonchar to become excellent students. They prepared well in advance for the exam sessions. For complex issues, additional literature was selected.
Tactical and special classes contributed to the successful passing of exams in the specialty. Future officers, working out the standards for the deployment of communications equipment, fully performed the duties of shift and communication center supervisors, consolidated in practice the theoretical knowledge gained during the semester. The cadets-graduates of the RVVKUS participated in tactical exercises, which took place in conditions as close as possible to combat. With their skillful actions, they ensured uninterrupted and stable communication. Senior sergeant Pryadko, sergeants Khripunov, Ryzhkov, Sviridov especially distinguished themselves in the development of complex combat training tasks.
In 1983, thanks to the efforts of the head of the school, Major General Aseev A.A., heads of departments, colonels Prosoedov I.K. and Satdarova A.M., RVVKUS initiated the integration of tactical and special classes and exercises with schools of other profiles. In Ryazan, such exercises were conducted by the RVVKUS with the landing school. Central television made a film about them in 1985, which was then shown in the program "Feat". Such special exercises allowed the cadets-communicationsmen to understand the importance of providing high-quality communications and to be convinced of the capabilities of the equipment being studied.
In 1984, two departments were merged: "Radio Communication Techniques" and "Work on Communications and SES" into one department "Radio Communications". Its main tasks were to improve the quality of training and education of cadets, improve the methodological skills of teachers, and train scientific and pedagogical personnel. The department was distinguished by fruitful scientific activity. Colonels Sukhinin I.M. and Mansurov V.M. for military-scientific work "Radiotelegrapher", "Experience of training radiotelegraphers in a shortened time" were highly appreciated by specialists at the competition at the Military Academy of Communications. For the period from 1969-1989. the staff of the department was the main executor of 20 research projects, which were determined by the plans of the Chief of the Signal Corps. “While studying at the department,” wrote the reserve colonel, candidate of technical sciences, associate professor Kotov L.N., “the cadets received deep theoretical knowledge of military radio communications equipment and good practical skills. II - 30%, III class - all the rest".
In 1985, the department of "Automated command and control systems and communications" was organized at the school, which was headed by Candidate of Technical Sciences, Associate Professor, Colonel Okhapkin R.K. The main tasks of the department were the formation of knowledge among cadets of the principles of construction, functioning of computer technology and control automation complexes, the basics of modeling, algorithmization and programming. The teachers of the department are colonels, candidates of technical sciences Salamatin V.G., Trapeznikov I.V., lieutenant Zinoviev B.N. - laboratory engineers paid serious attention to increasing the applied orientation of training, developing strong skills for cadets to work independently on computer equipment and control automation complexes.
In the early 80s, the Department of Social Sciences became the initiator at the school of strengthening the individual approach to training, developing the creative abilities of future officers. To this end, curricula and programs were changed, the number of hours devoted to practical classes was increased. For officers of the school, demonstrative classes were held on the methodology of organizing independent work under the guidance of a teacher. The experience of such teachers of the department as Belozertseva V.K., Masyagina L.V., Sharzhukova I.P., Kiseleva A.A. was especially appreciated.
A huge contribution to the training and education of cadets was made by veterans of the department, front-line soldiers L.D. Usyskin, N.A. Kireev, V.V. Kozhurenko, M.A. Kudinov. They took part in thematic evenings held in cadet groups, spoke on local radio with stories about their youth at the front, about the courage and bravery of signalmen. All teachers of the Department of Social Sciences instilled in the cadets an interest in research work, contributed to the expansion of political horizons. In 1985, six cadets' works were awarded with diplomas, and the works of cadets G. Batrakov, S. Pastukhov, R. Bolshakov were presented at the republican and all-Union competitions of scientific student works. L.V. Masyagin, N.A. Volkov, I.M. Chaly, A.F. Agarev, A.P. Prokofiev. Veterans of the Great Patriotic War L.D. Usyskin, N.A. Kireev, M.A. Kudinov. The participation of teachers in the lecture work contributed to the growth of their professional skills, the activation of military-patriotic work among young people.
During this period, the leadership of the RVVKUS attached great importance to inventive and rationalization work. The head of the school, Major General of the Communications Troops A.A. Aseev, noted: "The cadets' external non-professional education is actively working, which is headed by the candidate of technical sciences, lieutenant colonel V. Sheredin. meetings, its members find new technical solutions, conduct experiments and experiments.Cadets organize scientific and practical conferences, meet with scientists from Ryazan universities, inventors and innovators.KKB has developed close ties with the Ryazan radio plant.
At the conference on innovation and invention of the Moscow Military District, the school presented 10 educational exhibits, and then 5 at VDNKh. Among them is a simulator for training cadets, which was developed by a group of inventors led by the head of the department, candidate of technical sciences, associate professor Colonel L. Kotov. The simulator was then recommended for industrial production. Major A. Gotsulyak, ensigns V. Galkin, Yu. Mashonkin, employees V. Vasilevsky, A. Melekhin, cadets A. Dolgikh, S. Vorobyov, S. Vazhnik are most actively engaged in rationalization work.
The officer is entrusted with weapons, military equipment, and most importantly - people who need to be trained and educated. Associate Professor of the Department of Humanities and Socio-Economic Disciplines, retired colonel V.V. Shuvalov writes in his memoirs: “The political department for all the years of study of the cadets compiled a comprehensive work plan, which provided for various forms of organizational, party-political and educational activities. the purpose of this plan was to train high-class officers for the signal troops and at the same time educators with a high moral culture.With various categories of activists, we planned and conducted seminars at which we considered theoretical and practical issues of educational work.Party and Soviet workers of the region, scientists and The activists, in turn, shared their experience in the airborne school, with the youth of enterprises and educational institutions in the city of Ryazan.
The Unified Political Day was regularly held at the RVVKUS, during which the leaders of the school and departments throughout the day, from wake up to lights out, were with the staff, resolved current issues, and talked with cadets on current political topics. This form of work, as well as the holding of "evenings of questions and answers", contributed to the rapprochement of the cadets of the school with the command.
Ways and means of increasing the effectiveness of military education of cadets and instilling in them the skills of educational work were considered in the RVVKUS at scientific and methodological conferences. At one of them in 1984, the head of the school, Major General of the Signal Corps A.A. Aseev. In the report of Colonel F.V. Zavalov, it was about increasing the effectiveness of the military education of future signal officers. Colonel A.V. Bolshakov, deputy head of the school for educational work, revealed the problems of improving the quality and efficiency of the educational process. Colonels V.A. Kukushko, A.A. Kiselev, V.K. Belozertsev, lieutenant colonels V.S. Nektorov, Captain Yu.G. Delezha, Senior Lieutenant V.N. Litvin ". A frank exchange of views, a businesslike and substantive conversation on the problems of education had a profound impact on improving the training of signal officers.
Eighteen years of service, from 1969 to 1984, was devoted to the education of signal officers, retired Colonel Zavalov F.V. In his memoirs, he emphasizes that “we were seriously engaged in the education of personnel in the spirit of patriotism, friendship of peoples, loyalty to our oath and duty to the Motherland. The forms and methods of work changed and improved, but the main ones were scientific and practical conferences and seminars, meetings with graduates , veterans of the school and noble people of Ryazan. Cultural and educational work was diverse and perceived with interest. There were patronage ties with the drama theater, the philharmonic society, the circus, museums. Annually on May 9, on Victory Day, they participated in the holiday of a soldier's song. Readers' conferences were held regularly, meetings with poets, writers, artists. Reviews of amateur performances of divisions became an event in the life of the school.
Close military friendship connected cadets of signalers and paratroopers. It was tempered and strengthened during joint exercises, sports competitions and thematic meetings. At one of them, the master of sports in radio sports, the champion of the Moscow Military District in all-around radio operators, cadet N. Akhramenko, spoke to the future paratroopers. He told them about the history of the formation and development of radiosport in the country, about the achievements of signalmen cadets. Nominal fellow A. Kosarev demonstrated the work with the "fox hunting" equipment and quickly found the transmitters hidden in the hall. The meeting ended with a joint concert of amateur performances.
The political department, the department of social sciences, together with the library for officers and cadets, held theme evenings, reader conferences, meetings with writers and poets. The head of the library A.I. Sokolova and her staff tried to ensure that the events held were not only informative, but also interesting for the audience. In the reading room there were colorfully designed book exhibitions on various topics. Literary reviews, exhibitions of new acquisitions, prepared by the bibliographer T.Ya. Kiseleva, librarians A.N. Motherland and T.I. Derba always aroused interest and were popular in the school. Library workers rendered great assistance to the command, teaching staff and unit commanders in the moral education of cadets.
In 1984, readers' conferences were held on the books of the Hero of the Soviet Union V.V. Karpov, Alexander Beck, about the poetic heritage of the hero of the Patriotic War of 1812 Denis Davydov. The library staff took part in holding meetings of cadets with veterans of the school, participants in the Great Patriotic War I.A. Laptiev, V.S. Ring. They talked about their youth at the front, fighting friends who fought heroically against the enemy in the formidable war years. A graduate of the school in 1980, an order bearer, senior lieutenant V. Gusev, who served in the Soviet troops in Afghanistan, spoke about the continuity of generations of signal officers.
Members of the literary association "Efir" provided assistance to the library staff in conducting conversations and evenings. Dozens of cadets and officers were engaged in sections of poetry and prose. They were headed by teachers of the school, who conducted survey lectures on novelties of fiction. Members of the association often visited the divisions, where they performed with their works and talked about new publications. They met with professional writers and discussed their own writings with them. Secretary of the Ryazan Regional Writers' Organization, member of the Writers' Union of the USSR V.A. Zolotov read his stories and poems, and also took part in the discussion of the new works of the Efirovites. The writer noted the poem "The Ballad of Mother and Son" by cadet A. Shcherbakov, the story "Wild" by cadet O. Ershov, a cycle of poems by officer Yu. Vishnevsky. Subsequently, several collections of poems by members of the Efir association were printed in the school printing house, which were in demand among cadets and officers.
Only five years from 1983 to 1988. worked at the school as head of the political department, retired colonel V.K. Vishnevetsky, but his experience of educational work is worthy of serious study even today. In his memoirs, he draws attention to the following points: “I developed good relations with the head of the school, Major General of the Signal Corps A.A. Aseev. He could always find an approach to a cadet, officer, employee. He was available to everyone. On his initiative and with the active participation of the wives of officers and ensigns, the "Club of a young family" was created and fruitfully worked. Many cadets, especially 3rd and 4th courses, got married. It is clear that they had no life experience. And to be honest: many young wives They didn't know how to cook delicious food, so they decided to use the "Young Family Club" to give at least some knowledge in this difficult area of ​​life.
Officers, wise by worldly experience, and their wives spoke to young families. Doctors were invited. They organized culinary exhibitions with the obligatory "tasting" of dishes, pastries, etc. At the same time, recipes for its preparation were located next to each dish. These traditions continued under the new head of the school, Colonel Mazhorov M.B. Every year in September on the eve of the birthday of S.A. Yesenin, the command organized an excursion on motor ships for first-year cadets to the poet's homeland in the village of Konstantinovo. It was during these years, on the initiative of the head of the Department of Physical Culture and Sports, Lieutenant Colonel A.E. Sukhorukov began to hold the Spartakiad of the school in summer and winter sports.
I remember with great gratitude the joint work with the deputy battalion commanders for political affairs Delezha Yu.G., Novokreshchenov V.A., Biryukov A.T., Skobtsov Yu.A. I would especially like to note the work of the unit commanders Polyakov V.I., Tatarinov G.A., Ivanov Yu.K., Tsekhmistro A.P., Eringis A.P. The support battalion was commanded by E.S. Dementiev. In a good way competing with each other, they, at the same time, helped with advice, deed to everyone who needed help.
The best cadet platoon commanders, in my opinion, were V. Bodunov, A. Shashkin, A. Polulyashchenko, V. Korneev. For example, the study group of Captain A. Polulyashchenko achieved excellent results for several semesters. For what? Firstly, the platoon commander managed to pick up a sergeant who really enjoyed authority among his colleagues. Secondly, he constantly worked with the asset, taught him the practice of working with people, instilled a sense of responsibility for the task assigned. Thirdly, he was strict, but fair with subordinates, did not miss a single misconduct. Fourthly, he constantly kept in touch with teachers, attracting them to work with cadets. Well, he himself was an example for subordinates. Apparently, these components in the work of the platoon commander helped him solve the problems of improving the quality of cadets' studies. In general, educational work had the task of giving each person a goal in life, a guideline, and conviction in the rightness of their cause. And we gave it."
Communications officers needed physical skills, dexterity, health, which they acquired by doing physical education and sports at the school. In the school sports hall, until late in the evening, training sessions were held in sections, sports competitions, in which almost every cadet could take part. At their service were power simulators, sports corners in the divisions, where in any free minute it was possible to improve physical conditioning and sportsmanship. Excellent conditions were created in the training center: the stadium, various sports grounds served as a good help to the cadets in their desire to comprehensively prepare themselves for future activities.
The traditional Spartakiads of the school were a real holiday for the cadets. Throughout the year, there were intense fights on treadmills, sectors for jumping, wrestling mats, but the competitions in playing sports were the most exciting. The best sports results were achieved by units led by majors A.I. Trofimov and V.N. Bodunov. Each cadet they had was an athlete-discharger.
Competitions in six sports were held among the permanent staff of the school. The victory in 1985 was won by the department headed by Colonel S.P. Rybalchenko. The head of the department was a good fighter himself, loved volleyball and managed to create a close-knit team of sports enthusiasts. School leadership - Major General A.A. Aseev, colonels V.K. Vishnevetsky and A.A. Korneev not only provided concrete assistance in the development of mass sports, but also actively participated in sports competitions. During this period, in the RVVKUS, 95% of the personnel were VSK badges, 98% were sportsmen-dischargers, 11 masters of sports. Everyone in the school was well aware of the names of the three-time world champion among juniors in skiing, master of sports of international class G. Lazutin, national champion among juniors in Greco-Roman wrestling A. Baskakov, candidates for master of sports cadets I. Kogan, O. Laktyukhin, E. Chernukha .
A great contribution to the improvement of the teaching of physical culture was made by the head of the department, lieutenant colonel A.E. Sukhorukov. The following remained in the memory of many generations of cadets: reserve lieutenant colonel S.A. Proshchalykin - master of sports in skiing, repeated champion of the country among veterans, reserve lieutenant colonel Bondarenko I.P. - Master of Sports, multiple champion of the Armed Forces in officer triathlon. The living legend of the department is the lieutenant colonel of the reserve Nektorov V.S., who introduced from 1969 to 1993. to the physical culture of cadets of many generations.
On the basis of the RVVKUS, events were regularly held through the sports committee of the Ministry of Defense. So, in May 1984, an international scientific and practical conference of the Sports Committee of the Friendly Armies on the development of military-technical and applied sports was held, in which representatives of 20 countries of the world took part. It was held under the guidance of twice Hero of the Soviet Union pilot-cosmonaut VV Gorbatko. The participants of the conference got acquainted with the educational and material base of the school for military applied sports, watched the demonstration performances of radio athletes. They were shown a film about the psychological training of signal officers. The head of the RVVKUS, Major General of the Communications Troops A.A. Aseev, spoke about the positive impact of radio sports on improving the combat skills of future officers, that 14 masters of sports were trained at the school.
The conference participants admired the actions of the cadet N.A. Akhramenko, who received a letter radiogram at a speed of 200 characters per minute. Cadets V.Smirnyagin, N.Kuskov showed good results in the transmission of radiograms.
Colonel of the Czechoslovak Army Vladimir Chernykh emphasized: "We have seen a lot of interesting and instructive things and we will try to apply this experience in training athletes of our army." "When we return home, we will certainly develop technical and military-applied sports, because we see how useful they are for soldiers," said Captain Adil Abdul Rahman from Yemen.
The school has repeatedly hosted the championships of the Moscow Military District and the Armed Forces in radio sports. Successfully defended the honor of the MVO junior team in 1983 by RVVKUS cadet V. Smirnyagin, who achieved the maximum result in the telegram receiving competition and scored 100 points. The cadet N.Akhramenko in the competitions for receiving and writing text on a typewriter fulfilled the standard of the master of sports.
The effectiveness of the entire system of educational work was shown by the results of military training of cadets. It was carried out in parts of the central subordination of the Head of the Signal Corps, as well as in the Moscow, Leningrad, Carpathian, North Caucasian, Odessa and Kiev districts. Future officers acquired good skills in the performance of official duties in the relevant command positions. In 1985, 89.2% of the cadets received an excellent mark for the internship, 10.3% - good, 0.5% - satisfactory. In addition, for diligence in the service, many cadets were encouraged by the commanders of military units.
The success of the internship for graduates largely depended on the organizational and practical work carried out by teachers and unit commanders appointed by its leaders. Colonels A.P. brought excellent reviews about their activities from the troops. Tsekhmistro, Yu.A. Saulesleya, I.M. Chaly, lieutenant colonels A.M. Khoroshavin, S.A. Smirnov, majors A.I. Trofimov, V.M. Egorov. The commanders of many military units turned to the command of the school with a request to send to them for service those cadets who had been trained by them. Such requests were evidence that the RVVKUS trained literate, with excellent skills in working with people, able to maintain sophisticated equipment and weapons for officers.
Traditionally, the graduation ceremony of young lieutenants was solemnly held at the school. To the sounds of the march, the banner of the school, its military shrine, was carried in front of the frozen formation of signal officers. Graduates of 1984 were admonished by the Head of Communications of the Armed Forces, Marshal of the Communications Troops A.I. Belov, who read out the order of the Minister of Defense on conferring the first officer rank on graduates of the school - lieutenant. Four of them graduated from college with a gold medal, many received diplomas with honors. “The profession of a military man has been my dream since childhood. Having entered the school, I immediately realized that it was necessary and possible to study well here. After all, officer service requires deep knowledge. Without this, it is impossible to educate subordinates,” said R. Burnashev. Marshal of the Signal Corps A.I. Belov read out a greeting from the Minister of Defense Marshal of the USSR D.F. Ustinov and stressed the importance of communication in the life of the army. He wished the graduates success in strengthening the Armed Forces of the Soviet Union.
"Each of today's graduates is a skilled young officer, a person devoted to the Motherland and people, who has deeply studied the advanced methods of training and educating personnel, skillfully exploiting modern military equipment and property," said the head of the school, Major General of the Signal Corps A.A. Aseev. Lieutenant R. Burnashev spoke on behalf of the young officers, who expressed gratitude to the command, the teachers of the school for the knowledge, understanding and care received. He assured that the graduates would carry the rank of officer with dignity.
It was the graduate of 1985, Gennady Pushkin, who was forever enrolled in the lists of the RVVKUS for his heroic deed in an unequal battle with dushmans in Afghanistan. He was posthumously awarded the Order of the Red Star. More than 330 pupils of the school were tested by Afghanistan, 52 of them were awarded the Order of the Red Star, and 130 - the Order "For Service to the Motherland in the Armed Forces of the USSR". Communications officers - graduates of the school - adequately performed their duty for the sake of the security and defense of the Soviet state.
Ryazan Higher Military Command School of Communications in 1986-1988. commanded by Colonel Mazhorov Mikhail Borisovich. In his memoirs about that period, he wrote: “In the very diverse activities of the head of the school, the organization of the educational process is undoubtedly a priority. Permanent management of it involves an analysis of the current state of affairs and its effectiveness.
In the 1980s, the training programs for officers in military communications schools were dominated, in my opinion, by the trend of training so-called "broad profile" communications officers. At the same time, any specialization of graduates was excluded, which had a very negative effect on the formation of young officers, on their development of their initial position. The cadet studied at the school for four years, and the list of communications equipment in the troops amounted to dozens, which entailed many specialties.
Being the commander of communications units, the chief of the signal troops of the army, I used to personally meet with each graduate of the schools who arrived to staff the signal troops. This made it possible to get an idea about the lieutenant and take it into account when appointing him to the post. Then, during the year, and especially carefully in the first months, observe the growth of the officer, providing him with the necessary assistance. Such work with young officers made it possible to see all his strengths and weaknesses. Most of the young officers experienced significant difficulties in the organization of communications technology, the organization of its operation, personal work on it and, as a result, had problems in working with personnel. It was not necessary to count on the help of sergeants, and the staffing of field communication centers with ensigns was negligible. Thus, the platoon leader became the main training figure. This problem needed to be solved! The training programs for cadets in schools had a certain "immunity" and great inertia. Nevertheless, it was necessary to introduce "specialization" into the training of graduates of the school, since life and military practice urgently required a solution to this problem.
I outlined my thoughts and specific proposals to the officers of the school. In the process of understanding the ways of solving the problem, the idea more and more acquired specific ways of implementation. One of the first to accept this idea and warmly supported the deputy head of the school for educational work, Colonel L.I. Votinov, and then the commanders of the battalions, Colonels V.I. Polyakov and A.G. Mostovshchikov, and soon all the officers.
The idea and ways of its implementation were as follows. By the beginning of the fourth year, each cadet had to know what position he would be certified for when he graduated. This position was determined taking into account the opinions of departments, unit commanders and the wishes of the cadets. In order to determine the optimal ratio of the need for signal officers in the troops, the ratio of posts in the army communications regiment was taken as a basis. Further, the cadets were announced the preliminary decision of the head of the school on their graduation attestation and their purposeful training was organized. So, the cadet was given a list of questions that needed to be worked out in preparation for the upcoming position throughout the graduation course. During the military internship, the cadet practiced in the upcoming position.
The chiefs of the communications troops of the districts were oriented by the head of the school so that when graduates from Ryazan were appointed to the post, graduation certification was taken into account as much as possible. Undoubtedly, even such a small non-curricular orientation of a college graduate gave him great help in mastering his initial position.
The training and education of the future officer began with the solemn ritual of taking the military oath, which took place on Victory Square. It was symbolic that the first-year students had to continue the glorious fighting traditions of their fathers and grandfathers, who defended the freedom and independence of the Motherland during the Great Patriotic War. But for this they had to study hard and master martial skills. The sergeants and platoon commanders paid serious attention to the study of the personal qualities of cadets and sought to create strong military teams on this basis. In the division of Captain V. Shashkin, the commanders carried out painstaking individual work with the young cadet. With the sergeants, classes were held on the practice of educational work with subordinates. Captains V. Gusev, V. Chesnokov, senior lieutenant A. Sigov skillfully used various forms of encouragement and tried to ensure that they did not turn into a formality. Incentives were announced before formation or at a meeting. Letters to parents about the exemplary performance of military duty were especially valued among the cadets.
In the battalion of lieutenant colonel V.I. Polyakov, a sergeant's lecture hall was created, where experienced methodologist officers, the command staff of the school spoke to junior commanders on the most pressing problems of military and moral education. The experience of the commanders of cadet units testified that in those military collectives where constant attention was paid to the issue of education and strengthening of discipline, there were successes in studies, in the formation of high moral and business qualities among future officers.
One of the forms that stimulated the study and military service of cadets was the participation of the command and political staff of the school in meetings of personnel, at which the results of the educational process were summed up. The best cadets and units were noted in the orders of the head of the school, in the historical form, on the stands of the museum. The cadets took an example from the personal scholarship holders B. Gudzenko, S. Yakovlev, V. Karpov. With their knowledge, they showed that the course taken at the school to combine high theoretical knowledge with practical training would help them become qualified signal officers.
The best results in the training and education of cadets were systematically achieved by the most experienced military teachers, colonels L.N. Kotov, L.V. Masyagin, V.I. Seredavkin, L.I. Votinov, associate professor V.P. Malakhov, teachers, colonels I.I. Tyminsky, I.M. Roan. The staff of the Department of Social Sciences paid the most serious attention to the further methodological and scientific-pedagogical growth of teaching staff. Improving the teaching methods at the department followed the path of introducing the method of problem-based learning, which required constant mobilization of thought, deep knowledge, courage in judgments. The best in this regard were recognized lectures and seminars, which were conducted by teachers I.P. Sharzhukov, I.M. Chaly, N.F. Boyko, N.A. Volkov, L.D. Usyskin. All this contributed to instilling propaganda skills in the cadets, the ability to independently prepare and speak on topical issues in the life of the country.
The use of automation tools and electronic devices in the classroom has become a common occurrence in the school. Auditoriums, laboratories and classrooms were equipped with the latest equipment. Many of the technical means were made by the hands of officers, ensigns and cadets. The department led by Candidate of Technical Sciences, Associate Professor, Colonel L.N. Kotov achieved the greatest success here. The Department of Radio Communications enjoyed well-deserved prestige in the school and occupied the first places in rationalization and inventive work.
A significant contribution to the improvement of the educational and material base was made by the cadet design bureau (KKB). Cadets - members of the bureau under the guidance of officer-teachers acquired an interest in independent technical creativity, in science and technology, in their future military specialty. The command of the school provided the KKB with a large audience, in which cadets and teachers equipped a room for a permanent exhibition of exhibits, as well as an assembly hall where electrical work was carried out. A mechanical workshop, a shielded chamber, a chemical section, and an office for paperwork were created for members of the KKB.
All this contributed to the growth of cadets' activity in rationalization and inventive work. Members of the KKB participated in the All-Union Review of Scientific and Technical Creativity of Youth. A device for electrical equipment developed by cadets A. Zubkov and Yu. Belyaev under the guidance of Major S. Zelenkov was highly appreciated. The jury of the competition noted the rationalization work of cadets L. Dolgikh, A. Kolbyshev, S. Vorobyov, A. Zubrilin. Cadets - members of the bureau made a training device "Radiotelegraphist", an original model of an oscilloscope, a radio station simulator and much more. All members of the KKB studied "good" and "excellent" and served as an example in military service and discipline.
One of the military traditions of the RVVKUS was the inseparable unity of training and education. Close patronage relations connected the school with the teams of the radio factory, RRTA, RGPI, technical schools and schools. Military-patriotic circles and sections, created in a number of educational institutions, were led by officers and cadets of the school. For more than 20 years, the School of a young signalman has been operating. Cadets and officers of the RVVKUS took an active part in the work of the University of the Future Warrior. For a number of years, activist cadets, political officers, teachers of the Department of Social Sciences conducted skiing campaigns in the places of military glory of the Soviet Army in the Mikhailovsky district. They told the locals about the military traditions of the Armed Forces and gave amateur art concerts. Lieutenant colonels Litvin V.N., Novokreshchenov V.A., senior warrant officer Gubin V.A., senior lieutenant Mokshanov S.P. stood at the origins of the campaign runs.
For first-year cadets, the command organized trips by boat to Konstantinovo, during which they got acquainted with the past of the Ryazan land. The most indelible impression on future officers was made by acquaintance with the poetic work of S.A. Yesenin. The best cadet units were encouraged to travel to Moscow. All this helped the future signal officers to expand their horizons and to know better the history of their native land and their homeland.
In the Ryazan garrison, the performance "Fashionable color is green" based on the play by the Moscow playwright K. Abramtsev, which was staged on the stage of RVVKUS, aroused great interest. Cadets S. Pyatachenko, E. Morozov, S. Zakhariev, M. Bokelavadze, Yu. Krivosheev, ensign M. Medvedev successfully played their roles. The performance was staged by Colonel S. Drygin and Major E. Rassudimov.
The actors actually played themselves, showing their characters, individual traits, and at the same time spoke about the everyday life of the army, about the relationship among those who are entrusted with protecting the peaceful life of the country.
Every year, the school held reviews of amateur performances of divisions. In 1987, an interesting and informative program was shown to the audience by cadets of the company under the command of Major E. Kushchev. One of the best programs was prepared by senior students, whose artistic director was cadet S. Seleznev. The audience especially liked the folk dance ensemble led by cadets S. Michurin and A. Pogorelov. The cadets of the second year of the company of Major Yu. Maksimov pleasantly surprised the audience with their program. The jury members awarded junior sergeants I. Rozum and V. Kovalchuk, cadets S. Agafonov and E. Muravyov with the highest scores. The review of amateur performances was liked and remembered by all those present for a long time.
Under the leadership of the political department of the school, the Women's Council was actively working, which was headed by the wives of officers Zayats L.G. and Aralova N.P. They organized visits to museums, theaters, the Philharmonic, and cinemas for the staff of the school. They held officer evenings, children's matinees and New Year's parties, and also took under their patronage a kindergarten and a pioneer camp.
Here is what the Krasny Voin newspaper wrote about the activities of the Women's Council of the RVVKUS: "The wives of officers of the military communications school organized a theme evening" There is such a profession - to defend the Motherland. The guests of the evening were veterans of the war, Major General Y. M. Babkov, lieutenant colonels N. A. Kireev and M. F. Biloshnichenko, colonels N. I. Andreev and L. D. Usyskin. comrades are worthily continued by graduate cadets S. Melnikov, P. Vertutin, junior sergeant V. Karpov. Officers who served in Afghanistan, captains N. Tyutvin, A. Petrovichev, senior lieutenant A. Luzhkov, major I. Zykin rise on the stage. The hall listened with excitement to the stories about how they served in Afghanistan, for which they were awarded orders and medals.The hall honored the memory of the dead graduates of the RVVKUS Lieutenant G. Pushkin, Lieutenant V. Klimanov, Sr. Lieutenant N. Grishin. For war veterans, internationalist soldiers performed by L. Zayats, Lieutenant Colonel Yu. Vishnevsky, Captain N. Tyutvin, works by famous poets, as well as poems of their own composition, were performed.
For the personnel of the school, the command organized collective screenings of feature films at the Oka cinema, meetings with famous film actors E. Matveev, A. Kuznetsov and others. The brightest events in the life of the school were reflected in the local and central media. Educational work had a positive impact on the staff of the school. Gross violations of military discipline were eliminated in the RVVKUS, and in the orders of the Minister of Defense, the school was noted as one of the best among military universities.
The head of the school, Colonel M.B. Majorov said this about his pupils: “Our graduates received good training. They are able and ready to perform all tasks in the troops in training and educating personnel, to use modern communication technology. All graduates understand what kind of responsibility they take on their young shoulders. All signalmen remember that only an excellent communication can make a commander out of a general. Graduates said goodbye to the banner of the school - its military relic. Gold medalists K. Burovsky, I. Kamensky, V. Karpov, V. Pogashev, Yu. Oleksienko were the first to receive this honor. They were personally congratulated on the successful completion of their studies by the head of the RVVKUS, Colonel M.B. Majors.
According to the reviews of graduates from military units, the command of the school saw that most of them are aware of their duty to the Motherland, successfully cope with their official duties. The commanders of the communications units wrote about lieutenants R. Burnashev, V. Anashkin, A. Bakin, A. Matveev, V. Yushkin, who showed themselves well at the school, that they are demanding of themselves and their subordinates, hardworking commanders, well-trained educators of personnel. Such reviews testified to the well-thought-out system of training signal officers in the RVVKUS and the enormous work of the entire staff of the school.
In 1987, the Minister of Defense of the Armed Forces of the USSR, Marshal D.T. Yazov, got acquainted with the course of the educational process in the military educational institutions of the Ryazan garrison. When visiting the RVVKUS, he heard reports from the head of the school, Colonel Mazhorov M.B. and the head of the political department, Colonel Vishnevetsky V.K. on the training and education of future signal officers. The Minister of Defense of the USSR visited the location of the cadets of the 10th company, where he talked with the battalion commander, Lieutenant Colonel Mostovshchikov A.G. and company commander Major Trofimov A.I. . After getting acquainted with the educational and material base of the departments of the school, the Minister of Defense briefly summed up the activities of the command and teaching staff and set tasks to improve the training of officers.
In 1991, the Ryazan Higher Military Command School of Communications named after Marshal of the Soviet Union M.V. Zakharov is 50 years old. In those holidays, the head of the school, Major General Alexander Vladimirovich Rogov, repeatedly heard the phrase: "We have something to be proud of!" and his words were true. The command of the signal troops considered our school one of the best higher military educational institutions. First Deputy Chief of Communications of the Armed Forces of Russia, Lieutenant General A.A. Ivanov stated that “it was decided to make the school a base one, all experiments on reforming the educational process will take place here.
During this period, on the basis of the RVVKUS, meetings of the commanding staff of the signal troops and scientific and technical conferences on the problems of reforming military education were repeatedly held. In April 1990, under the leadership of the First Deputy Chief of Communications of the Armed Forces, Lieutenant General O.S. Lisovsky, a conference of higher educational institutions of communication was organized. In the course of its work, the problems of improving the structures and content of new curricula, the qualitative development of the educational and material base were considered. But special attention was paid to the development of a system of continuous education for signal officers in the system of military schools and higher academic courses.
The problems of reforming military education were analyzed by teachers of military educational institutions of communications, the high command of the signal troops at a meeting in the RVVKUS in 1990. Ways of practical implementation of the main directions of the reform of military education were discussed at it. The command of the RVVKUS reported on the results of the experiment conducted at the school to combine the departments of TSP and BPUS and create on their basis the department of Communications Organization.
The problem of the moral education of future officers on the basis of the military traditions of the Russian army was acute. "The task is to bring to every cadet the understanding that he serves the people, the Fatherland, and not the party or some group of people. We must educate a smart, intelligent officer, as gentlemen officers were in Russia, so that our cadet was the bearer of the best traditions of the Russian officer corps," emphasized the head of the RVVKUS, Major General A.V. Horns. The participants of the meeting were acquainted with the educational and material base of the school, which was highly appreciated by them. In special classes, teachers demonstrated to the guests the possibilities of educational equipment, methods of training future officers to master modern communications technology.
At one of the conferences of the leadership of the Armed Forces, held at the RVVKUS, a training base for automotive training was demonstrated. Teachers of the Department of Power Supply G.A. Likhachev, S.A. Konin, N.N. Slepenky, A.A. Mironov, warrant officers V.V. Galkin, L.Ya. Klyuchnik, V.V. Trofimenko improved the educational and material base and, on its basis, intensified the learning process. As a result, the teacher from his desk "commanded" the operating units and assemblies of training vehicles, by pressing a button commented on what was said on the screen with an educational film.
Repeatedly in the RVVKUS on the basis of the Department of Physical Training and Sports, meetings were held for specialists in army physical culture of higher military educational institutions. Demonstration classes were held for the guests in various sections of physical training, methods of effective organization of training sessions, physical exercises and mass sports work were demonstrated. At one of the conferences, it was decided to introduce a new "Physical Training Manual" in educational institutions and in the troops. The fact of holding scientific and practical conferences and meetings of the commanding staff of the signal troops within the walls of the RVVKUS testified to the recognition of the merits of the school in the training of signal officers.
We were proud of the school, and by right, success in rationalization and inventive work. In 1990, the school developed 75 rationalization proposals, received 3 copyright certificates, and sent 4 invention applications. Every year, RVVKUS scientists published up to 30 scientific publications, which found practical application in military educational institutions and signal troops. For this work, the school staff was awarded the Certificate of Honor of the Head of Communications of the Armed Forces. A freelance research laboratory was created in RVVKUS, working under economic contracts with various enterprises and institutions. The author of this innovation was the chairman of the VOIR school section, candidate of technical sciences, associate professor, colonel A.F. Gotsulyak. The developments of our inventors received copyright certificates. They became interested not only in military specialists, but also in enterprises that entered into contracts for the implementation of scientific research. Ultimately, the school also benefited, as developments were carried out in parallel, aimed at improving the quality of the educational process. The funds earned by the laboratory were used to purchase the latest instruments and computers. Subsequently, Colonel A.F. Gotsulyak became the initiator of the creation of the school television, known as "STS-35 channel".
About 300 cadets were engaged in the system of military scientific work annually. Future officers took part in the development of scientific problems, spoke at scientific and practical conferences. So, at one of them, the report and development of the cadet A. Machuly were awarded a diploma of the State Committee for Higher Education. The inventions of cadet A. Naumov were exhibited at VDNKh and were awarded three silver medals. The active participation of cadets in the rationalization work helped them to study successfully and better master the complex military communications equipment.
To improve the quality of training of cadets in 1989, a local digital network was developed on the basis of the computer "Partner 01-01". Its authors were Colonel Shevkoplyas G.B., Lieutenant Colonel Pravkin V.V., Major Kolokolenkov S.S., who were encouraged by letters of the Ministry of Defense. In 1991, teachers of the Department of Electrical Circuits conducted a pedagogical experiment on the introduction of a system of qualification tasks in the educational process. Its results were highly appreciated and were recommended for implementation in all communication schools. Lieutenant Colonels Kolokolenkov S.S. and Saprykin V.I. engaged in the development of problems of phonemic analysis of speech and their articles were published in scientific journals. The experimental setup they created was demonstrated in 1993 at an international symposium on computer technology.
In 1990, on the initiative of the head of the department, candidate of technical sciences, Colonel Salamatin V.G. with the support of the head of the school, Major General Rogov A.V. a training stationary-field automated communication system was created. Its basis was an automated data exchange system, elements of which were deployed in all military technical departments. Then, message switching centers and subscriber stations equipped with data transmission and computer equipment were installed in the classrooms of the department.
In order to improve the individual approach to teaching cadets in 1988, the "Historical Club" was formed, organized by the senior lecturer of the Department of Social Sciences Zaitsev V.M. . The club's activities were based on the principles of democratic scientific association. They implied complete voluntary work, mutual interest of its participants, competitive selection of those wishing to deepen their knowledge of history. The active work of the "Historical Club," as cadet A. Brockmiller wrote, "is promoted by a creative atmosphere in which all discussions are interesting and with maximum benefit for the cadets." Cadets - members of the club O. Novikov, Yu. Suglobov, A. Barkovsky, V. Konakov carried out agitation and propaganda work, speaking in educational institutions of the city and the region. In preparation for the 50th anniversary of the RVVKUS, cadets Zakharov V., Lisovsky Yu., Kovalchuk A., Skomorokhov A., Kulik D. took an active part in collecting materials for the newly created museum of the school. They met with veterans of the school, worked in the Moscow military archives . Cadets A. Tikhomirov, K. Kozak, V. Pavlovsky spoke to their comrades on topical issues of public life, and once they, together with the head of the club, were entrusted with a lesson in command training with school officers on the topic "Experience in conducting military reforms in Russia." Future officers within the framework of the "Historical Club" learned to understand the actual problems of the history of their native country, which undoubtedly helped them to improve their professional level.
The cadets of the school took an active part in the work and provided communication in ecological expeditions in the Ryazan region. Their organizer and inspirer was the doctor M.G. Malakhov, later a member of the Arctic expeditions, Hero of the Russian Federation.
During this period, educational work was further developed, which was carried out by the command, the political department and the departments of the school. Every week, the cadets listened to the radio newspaper prepared by T.Ya. Kiseleva. Meetings of excellent students were regularly held on a school scale. Major General A.V. Rogov personally presented each excellent student with a ribbon of honor, a gift and a photograph with the command of the RVVKUS. Birthdays were regularly honored in the cadet youth center (CMC), who were congratulated by the leadership of the school. Tables were laid for them, pastries were baked, a samovar was set up and the best artists of the school sang their favorite songs. The initiator of this event was Senior Lieutenant S.P. Yakovlev. In the garrison House of Officers, "Combat Commonwealth" evenings were held, in which cadets of military schools and the Higher School of the Ministry of Internal Affairs took part. During these events, various competitions, exhibitions, and amateur art concerts were organized. Under Major General A.V. Rogove for the first time officer balls began to be held.
The political department, together with the department of social sciences, developed a ritual of solemn farewell to the officers of the school to the reserve. Associate Professor V.V. Shuvalov describes this ceremony as follows: “Personally, I remember seeing off Colonels Zavalov F.V., Rybalchenko S.P., Kotov L.N., Fateeva M.Ya. reads out the order of dismissal to the reserve and presents a certificate of honor from the Minister of Defense of the USSR and gifts from the staff of the school.At the request of the veterans, their favorite songs are performed.

An excerpt characterizing Rogov, Alexander Semyonovich

- Come here. That's important!
Firewood was broken, pressed, blown with mouths and the floors of overcoats, and the flame hissed and crackled. The soldiers moved closer and lit their pipes. The young, handsome soldier who brought the firewood propped himself on his hips and began to quickly and deftly stomp his chilled feet in place.
“Ah, mother, cold dew, yes good, but in a musketeer ...” he sang, as if hiccuping on every syllable of the song.
- Hey, the soles will fly off! shouted the redhead, noticing that the dancer's sole was dangling. - What a poison to dance!
The dancer stopped, tore off the dangling skin and threw it into the fire.
“And that, brother,” he said; and, sitting down, he took from his knapsack a piece of blue French cloth and began to wrap it around his leg. “A couple of them went in,” he added, stretching his legs towards the fire.
“The new ones will be released soon. They say we'll kill to the end, then everyone will get double goods.
- And you see, the son of a bitch Petrov, lagged behind, - said the sergeant major.
“I've been noticing it for a long time,” said another.
Yes, soldier...
- And in the third company, they said, nine people were missing yesterday.
- Yes, just judge how you chill your legs, where will you go?
- Oh, empty talk! - said the sergeant major.
- Ali and you want the same? - said the old soldier, reproachfully addressing the one who said that his legs were shivering.
– What do you think? - suddenly rising from behind the fire, a sharp-nosed soldier, who was called a crow, spoke in a squeaky and trembling voice. - He who is smooth will lose weight, and death to the thin. At least here I am. I have no urine,” he said suddenly decisively, turning to the sergeant-major, “they were sent to the hospital, the aches had overcome; and then you stay behind...
“Well, you will, you will,” the sergeant-major said calmly. The soldier fell silent, and the conversation continued.
- Today, you never know these Frenchmen were taken; and, frankly, there are no real boots, so, one name, - one of the soldiers began a new conversation.
- All the Cossacks were amazed. They cleaned the hut for the colonel, carried them out. It's a pity to watch, guys, - said the dancer. - They tore them apart: so alive alone, do you believe it, mutters something in its own way.
“A pure people, guys,” said the first. - White, like a white birch, and there are brave ones, say, noble ones.
– How do you think? He has been recruited from all ranks.
“But they don’t know anything in our language,” the dancer said with a smile of bewilderment. - I tell him: “Whose crown?”, And he mumbles his own. Wonderful people!
“After all, it’s tricky, my brothers,” continued the one who was surprised at their whiteness, “the peasants near Mozhaisk said how they began to clean up the beaten ones, where there were guards, so what, he says, their dead lay there for a month. Well, he says, he lies, he says, theirs is how the paper is white, clean, it doesn’t smell like gunpowder blue.
- Well, from the cold, or what? one asked.
- Eka you're smart! By cold! It was hot. If it were from the cold, ours would not be rotten either. And then, he says, you will come to ours, all, he says, is rotten in worms. So, he says, we will tie ourselves with scarves, yes, turning our faces away, and dragging; no urine. And theirs, he says, is white as paper; does not smell of gunpowder blue.
Everyone was silent.
- It must be from food, - said the sergeant major, - they ate the master's food.
Nobody objected.
- Said this man, near Mozhaisk, where there were guards, they were driven from ten villages, they drove twenty days, they didn’t take everyone, then the dead. These wolves that, he says ...
“That guard was real,” said the old soldier. - There was only something to remember; and then everything after that ... So, only torment for the people.
- And that, uncle. The day before yesterday we ran, so where they do not allow themselves. They left the guns alive. On your knees. Sorry, he says. So, just one example. They said that Platov took Polion himself twice. Doesn't know the word. He will take it: he will pretend to be a bird in his hands, fly away, and fly away. And there's no way to kill either.
- Eka lie, you're healthy, Kiselev, I'll look at you.
- What a lie, the truth is true.
- And if it were my custom, if I caught him, I would bury him in the ground. Yes, with an aspen stake. And what ruined the people.
“We’ll do everything in one end, he won’t walk,” the old soldier said, yawning.
The conversation fell silent, the soldiers began to pack.
- Look, the stars, passion, are burning like that! Say, the women laid out the canvases, - said the soldier, admiring the Milky Way.

3 ROGOV Alexander Semenovich 215 After the encirclement and defeat of the army, on June 25, 1942, at the head of a group of army staff workers, he was one of the last to leave the encirclement. Marshal of the Soviet Union K. A. Meretskov, commander of the troops of the front, recalled: “I will return to those who, in the most difficult conditions, retained the unchanged feelings of a Soviet citizen, warrior and soldier until their last breath. Many of them in those difficult days managed to escape from the enemy ring. Among those who left was the head of the intelligence department of the army, A. S. Rogov. He said that he spoke later and moved along the route of the Military Council. Having stumbled upon the mortar and artillery barrage of the enemy, he was forced to stop. No one from the Military Council group was already in the area. In June, the fire began to weaken and move in the direction of the narrow gauge railway. Assuming that a breakthrough had formed there, Colonel Rogov hurried there. And indeed, everyone moving in the direction of the narrow gauge railway left the encirclement, although the losses from mortar and machine-gun fire were generally large. In total, 16 thousand people left the encirclement. In the battles then, 6 thousand people from the 2nd shock army died, and 8 thousand were missing. Thus ended the tragedy of this army.” 1 From October 1942 to October 1943, Deputy Chief of Staff of the Front for Intelligence, Chief of the Regional Directorate of Staff of the Southwestern Front. Participated in the planning, preparation and conduct of the counter-offensive near Stalingrad, Srednedonskaya (December 1942), Ostrogozhsk-Rossoshskaya operation (January 1943), Donbass strategic operation (August-September 1943), Zaporozhye operation (October 1943).

4 216 HEADS OF THE RO FRONTS of the composition and combat readiness in both operations, which made it possible to make the right decision. During the period of battles and the course of operations, he ensured the receipt of data about the enemy, revealing the intentions of the enemy, which made it possible to smash the enemy better and more. (from the award list, January 1943) “Well organized and carried out work on studying the enemy’s troops, his condition, and accurately and timely gave conclusions, both before the operation of the Southwestern Front from July to September 1943, and in its course. He skillfully used and applied all types of intelligence and clearly led the intelligence department of the front headquarters and monitored the fulfillment of intelligence tasks of lower headquarters. (from the award list, September 1943) General of the Army S.P. Ivanov, in his memoirs, recalling the battle for Stalingrad, wrote: “Immediately upon arrival, Grigory Davidovich [Stelmakh, chief of staff of the front] inquired whether Colonel A.S. Rogov as head of the intelligence department. Having learned that Alexander Semenovich was not yet there, he said in his hearts: It was necessary to achieve that he was also taken on a plane. All their attention, of course, was focused on finding a convenient crossing over the Don. Army and front-line scouts made a mistake. General A. S. Rogov, who was in charge of this service before the start of the operation, was a great connoisseur of China, somehow slowly entered the course of the Don events. At the same time, Colonel V. G. Romanov was pushed into the background, which did not allow this excellent intelligence officer to show his enviable initiative in full force. A. S. Rogov became interested in interrogating Romanian prisoners of war, who were in abundance. He compiled a detailed document deeply analyzing the then state of the 3rd Romanian army, but since in the future it was necessary to act against the Romanians only episodically, this material could only have a military-historical value, and they did not collect enough of another. 1 Army General M. I. Kazakov recalled: “The major successes of the troops of the Voronezh and Southwestern fronts in January and February promised a lot. 1 Ivanov S.P. Army headquarters, front-line headquarters.

6 218 RO FRONT HEADS The daily reconnaissance reports from the Southwestern Front, as well as its final report for February, stated that the enemy allegedly intended to leave the territory of Donbass himself and withdraw his troops beyond the Dnieper. Such conclusions were based on an incorrect assessment of the movement of enemy tank columns from the defensive line on the Mius River. Moving almost parallel with the troops of the right wing of the Southwestern Front to the western regions of the Donbass, the 1st and 4th tank armies of the enemy were preparing to launch a counteroffensive from there. And the headquarters of the Southwestern Front mistakenly regarded these movements as a forced retreat beyond the Dnieper. 1 After the renaming of the South-Western Front into the 3rd Ukrainian Front, from October 1943 until the end of the war, Deputy Chief of Staff of the Front for Intelligence, Chief of the RO of Staff of the 3rd Ukrainian Front. Participated in the planning, preparation and conduct of the battle for the Dnieper (October-November 1943), Nikopol-Krivoy Rog (January-February 1944), Bereznegovato-Snigirevskaya (March 1944), Odessa (March-April 1944) operations, Yassko -Chisinau (August 1944), Belgrade (September October 1944), Budapest (October 1944 February 1945) strategic operations, Balaton operation (March 1945), Vienna strategic operation (March April 1945) ).

7 ROGOV Alexander Semenovich 219 “Major General Rogov, in preparing and conducting the operation to defeat the 6th Army of the Germans, by his tireless work, timely and with sufficient completeness revealed the forces and composition of the enemy acting in front of the front, as well as his regrouping and intentions. He skillfully analyzed the collected data about the enemy and reported his conclusions and proposals to the front command in time, which contributed to the successful course of the operation. (from the award list, March 1944) Colonel I.F. Yurkov, during the war years the head of intelligence of the corps, recalled: “On March 26, the head of intelligence of the front, General A.S. Rogov, flew to the army headquarters. He was a man of high military erudition with great combat experience as a scout. He was aware of all events. We did not know what issues he was solving at the headquarters of the 8th Guards Army. We only guessed” 1 Marshal of the Soviet Union S. S. Biryuzov, assessing the role of front intelligence in the preparation of the Iasi-Kishinev operation, recalled: “First of all, it was necessary to clarify and replenish intelligence data about the enemy. In the dead of night, scouts crawled in front of the very nose of the enemy; probing every piece of land, they looked for minefields, barbed wire and other obstacles, determined how to neutralize them before the offensive. Instrumental artillery reconnaissance detected enemy batteries. Aviation day and night conducted surveillance from the air. It must be said that our reconnaissance was excellent. On the eve of the Iasi-Kishinev operation, we had such complete data on the enemy that a German general captured later, looking at our reconnaissance map, exclaimed: You copied the location of the German and Romanian troops from the map of the headquarters of "Southern Ukraine"! The prisoner was wrong. But when a map of the 6th German Army really fell into our hands, we ourselves were surprised at its striking resemblance to ours. appear in the location of enemy troops. In the future, these companies served us well. The head of intelligence also had another surprise for me: photographs of enemy positions taken from an Il-2 aircraft. On our front, this was then a novelty. We all patiently waited to see how effective the ingenuity of the pilots would be. 1 Yurkov IF Ahead of the attacking squadrons. Odessa: Lighthouse, S. 133

8 220 HEADS OF THE RO FRONTS And here are the pictures received. Excellent pictures! Even enemy soldiers are visible, fleeing into the trenches from the "winged death". As in the palm of your hand and false and actual firing positions of artillery. What more could you wish for? Our front was famous for its scouts, who often operated deep behind enemy lines. Among them were women. I still remember some of these fearless patriots Maria Fortus, Lina Abramson, Maria Korennaya, Natalia Bystrova. How much valuable information about the enemy they obtained, how they helped us in planning the operation! 1 Colonel O. A. Grigoriev, during the war years an officer of the RO of the headquarters of the 3rd Ukrainian Front, recalled: “Major General A. S. Rogov, when the officers newly appointed to the intelligence department of the front entered his office, shook hands with everyone . He was about forty, of medium height, a stout man with a handsome face and a charming smile, calm and balanced. According to Yakobson, Alexander Semenovich was an extremely highly educated and cultured person who knew many languages ​​and was well versed in matters of literature and art. Everyone who had to work with him was surprised at his insight, ability to foresee the course of events, summarize a lot of facts and draw from them the only correct conclusion in a given situation. “Chief of intelligence of the front and part-time chief of staff of the 6th German Army,” thus, smiling, General of the Army R. Ya. Malinovsky usually introduced Alexander Semenovich to one of the high authorities. Rogov's ability to think for the enemy was extraordinary. He taught this to the officers of the RO. Constant training taught them to think "threshold". And it is natural that many pupils of Alexander Semenovich left for the posts of intelligence chiefs of corps, armies, fronts, and in the post-war period they headed the intelligence of military districts and groups of troops. An interesting statement was made by General of the Army S.P. Ivanov, at that time the chief of staff of the 3rd Ukrainian Front. “Preparing for the Vienna operation,” he recalled, we closely followed the enemy. From mid-February, scouts began to provide data on the concentration of a large enemy tank grouping in the area of ​​​​Lake Balaton. When this was reported to the General Staff, they initially reacted to this message with incredulity. Army General A. I. Antonov, talking on HF with Marshal Tolbukhin, asked in bewilderment: “Who is 1 Biryuzov S. S. A Soviet soldier in the Balkans. M.: Military Publishing, S. 35, 42, 59, 84

Can you believe that Hitler withdrew the 6th SS Panzer Army from the west and sent it against the 3rd Ukrainian Front, and not near Berlin, where the last operation to defeat the fascist troops is being prepared? It was really so. It was, of course, not easy to completely open the enemy grouping, unravel his intentions, the place of the main attack. But that was precisely the talent of the chief of the RO of the front headquarters! He managed to think over and organize all the actions of the intelligence officers in such a way that not a single enemy unit was left out of control. 1 After the war, from September 1945, A.S. chief of staff, chief of the RO of the headquarters of the Separate Mechanized Army. Since July 1949 he was the chief of the RU of the headquarters of the commander-in-chief of the troops of the Far East. From August 1950 he was deputy chief, from May 1953 he was assistant chief of the GRU General Staff. In November 1953 April 1958 military attaché at the USSR Embassy in Great Britain.

By the Decree of the Council of Ministers of the USSR of April 27, 1962, he was awarded the military rank of Colonel General. In January March 1963, acting head of the GRU General Staff. By the Decree of the Council of Ministers of the USSR of March 7, 1963, he was removed from his post and demoted in military rank to major general in connection with the “Penkovsky case”. Since March 1963, at the disposal of the USSR Ministry of Defense. Since June 14, 1963, A.S. Rogov has been in reserve. Lived in Moscow. He was buried at the Troekurovsky cemetery. A. S.

Research work "Generals of the native land"

(Rogov Alexander Ivanovich - lieutenant general)

Ruk. Tsyganova I.Yu.

Introduction.

“The boys are playing at war…” And every second one dreams of becoming a general when he grows up. Not just a man in uniform, but a warrior, a defender. Not everyone has this dream come true. I want to talk about a man who I associate with military honor, patriotism and purposefulness. All these titles are proudly carried through life by my fellow countryman, the border guard, Major General Rogov Alexander Ivanovich.

Relevance of the chosen topic.

In our time, more than ever, such concepts as a patriot, hero, defender of the Motherland are very acute. We, the younger generation, have someone to learn from, someone to take an example from. Moreover, the Sosnovoborsk land, like a mother, raised its heroes of the Fatherland. These are the people I dedicate my work to.

I will supplement the chronicle of my native land with my work.

Application area.

Use the material in the lessons of local history and history.

Rogov Alexander Ivanovich -major general. Born in the village of Sosnovoborsk, Penza region. in 1951. His parents are buried here in Sosnovoborsk. Here stands the house in which he was born and raised, and it is here that he comes every summer with his family on vacation.

One of the founders of the border troops of Tajikistan major general Alexander Rogov has been inextricably linked with the Afghan border for 20 years now.

He got to the Afghan border in 1985. As part of the Kerkinsky border detachment, replacing the position of the head of the operational group, here he began his military path.
Under the operational group, one should mean not the operational department of the headquarters of his detachment with "paper" work, but the real direct management of military operations on the territory of Afghanistan.
Then on the shoulders of Major Rogov, who had just graduated from the Academy. Frunze "cut" a section of Afghan territory into three provinces adjacent to the Kerkinsky border detachment. The length of his lot was almost 300 km long and up to 200 km deep. The Soviet border guards had a specific task so that not a single gang of dushmans could approach the borders of the Union closer than a cannon shot. The cover units entrusted to Major Rogov, consisting of 4 motorized maneuver groups, one DShMG (airborne assault maneuver group), 5 separate posts and outposts, were divided into two field operational groups. In those, perhaps, the most intense years of the Afghan war, they fought intense hostilities.
The total number of the group subordinate to Major Rogov reached 4,000 people. Under the command of a border guard major, in fact, there was not even a motorized rifle regiment, but a real, full-blooded combat motorized rifle brigade. He had to manage all this army, organize its actions, performing specific combat missions.
To carry out the leadership of military operations, it was necessary not only to have experience and knowledge, but also to have excellent health. I often had to sleep in short bursts, and in my head I had to keep a huge amount of information, to be able to instantly make the best decision. The Afghan war was the work of young and energetic officers.
During these two years, Alexander Rogov conducted a large number of military operations.

They fought virtually non-stop. The scene changed daily and every night. Posting columns, raids, clearing "greenbacks", defeating spiritual bases ...
The officers of his headquarters lived in their space-time dimension.

Alexander Ivanovich, now honestly admits that he very vaguely remembers the course of those high-profile operations for which he received three military orders and a dozen medals.

The most successful and memorable operations for General Rogov are those in which he managed to avoid loss, and most importantly, clashes in conditions unfavorable for the border guards.
The most memorable raid for Alexander Rogov was when he managed to avoid an unfavorable battle with dushmans.
This happened in 1996 during the regrouping of forces and means. Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Rogov then directly led the passage of a huge column, which consisted of units of 2 mangroups, a motorized rifle battalion of the Soviet Army, an Afghan infantry battalion, as well as a large "convoy" with ammunition, fuel, food and other goods. In total, several hundred vehicles and up to one and a half thousand people moved.
The column was moving in clouds of dust along the mountainous and steppe Afghan roads under the cover of "turntables". The “spirits”, of course, became aware of the regrouping of such an impressive force, which is why they could not let this column through just like that. Such a "caravan", where combat and rear units are mixed, has always been a tasty morsel for spooks. The command of the rebels also planned a large-scale operation, the leadership of which was taken over by the old opponents of Alexander Rogov, field commanders engineer Bashir and Ahmad Pakhlavan.
Providing and covering the column at first was successful. In the mountains, the spirits did not dare to approach such an impressive force until the border guards approached the green zone, more than 40 km long.
It was here that the command of the Mujahideen decided to strike their insidious blow. Throughout the "green" battle groups of spirits prepared ambushes, strongholds, firing points.
Approaching the "zelenka", the column stood up. The scouts, who made a sortie into the villages located there, reported that the spirits were ready for an attack. I must say that the column itself during the movement stretched for 40 km. Clouds of dust, heat, broken roads, forced the cars to go a long distance from each other. In fact, it turned out that when the first car would leave the "green zone", then the last one would only enter it. To defeat the column, these are just the same ideal conditions. The enemy could let armored vehicles pass and, with impunity, fire at and set fire to trucks with fuel trucks from grenade launchers. Review during movement was extremely difficult. Not only was everything buried in clouds of dust, trees, thickets of bushes and duvals of villages were located next to the road, often only a few meters. In addition, the officers were not familiar with the terrain.The border guards did not have prepared positions for mortar, artillery batteries capable of supporting fire.

In turn, each combat group of "spirits" consisted of 2-3 grenade launchers, 2-3 machine gunners with 1-2 snipers, they intended to act on the principle of wolf packs. He hit - moved away, then approached again, hit again and again moved away.
In general, engineer Bashir knew his business, he prepared thoroughly. Soviet border guards faced serious trials.
Lieutenant Colonel Rogov then found himself in a very delicate situation, either to bring the column into the green, get involved in focal battles and skirmishes, break through with losses, or stand up, call in an oncoming combat group, wait for it for several days, and then, turning around to the front, clear it for several more days the entire green zone, again with battles and losses. In both cases, completely unnecessary losses would have amounted to quite a few killed and wounded border guards. In addition, the operation is not so easy on the go. According to the laws of the military bureaucracy, all this must be planned, provided, requests made to the headquarters, approved by organizing interaction, support by aviation and artillery ...
A classic situation arose before Lieutenant Colonel Rogov, when, in any case, in failure, he would be extreme, bearing all the responsibility. It was something to grab your head. In their field headquarters, located in KSHMk, the officers seriously thought about what to do next.
By that time, Alexander Rogov already knew the psychology of spirits well, he knew how to predict their actions. His brain, considering the final decision, was like a computer analyzing all the information at its disposal.
It was clear that the Mujahideen had thoroughly prepared for this operation. It will be hot. However, an experienced staff officer managed to catch on to one thread. After analyzing the data received from intelligence officers and agents, it turned out that engineer Bashir, during this operation, oriented his wards to conduct combat operations during daylight hours.
This, perhaps, the only weakness of the Mujahideen, Lieutenant Colonel Rogov decided to use in his own interests, deciding to take full responsibility, and made an extraordinary decision to go through the "green" at night.
When the sun began to decline towards the horizon, Alexander Ivanovich gathered the officers and gave the order to move. He warned: "do not open fire first, but be fully prepared for any surprise." If it is not possible to avoid the battle, then everyone should dismount, take advantageous positions and then fight according to all the rules with a tough sweep.
... As soon as from the mosques of the villages scattered in the greenery, the mullahs began to sing and all the faithful Muslims, laying down their trunks, began to pray, the column of Lieutenant Colonel Rogov, roaring hundreds of engines, turning on all the headlights, started off in full illumination. Some drivers, in an effort to have the maximum psychological impact, lowered the mufflers, which created an incredible rumble.
Judging by the radio intercepts, incredible confusion and turmoil reigned in Bashir's headquarters. Field commanders were bombarded with orders and instructions: to urgently advance to the collection points, take out ammunition, prepare firing points ... In response, there were reports of unavailability. Many Mujahideen dispersed until the morning to their homes to their wives, and unsuccessfully tried to collect them by sending messengers...
By midnight, for some three hours, the column managed to slip through the entire danger zone. There were no losses in personnel and equipment. The spirits were able to make only individual shots in pursuit ...
In 1987, Lieutenant Colonel Rogov was appointed chief of staff of the Kerkinsky detachment. Then, for the first time in two years, he was finally able to sleep well. The following year, he took command of the Termez border detachment.

With the collapse of the USSR, the Termez border detachment came under the jurisdiction of Uzbekistan. In October 1992, Colonel Alexander Rogov was sent on a business trip to Dushanbe to organize the protection of the borders of the young state. Ahead of him were waiting for much more serious tests. He intended to lead the border troops of an independent state for several months, until the situation stabilizes, well, a maximum of a couple of years. However, having become involved in the business, he rose to the rank of general and remained here forever, becoming forever related to this region ..

Major General Rogov Alexander Ivanovich, former chief of staff of the Termez border detachment, headed the border service of Tajikistan and is now the head of the Moscow border detachment of Tajikistan.

Conclusion.

A person comes into life the way nature created him, he is formed by the educational environment, he himself can control his own destiny. However, all this often passes by the students. But the younger generation needs to know the biography and deeds of great people. This is a positive example for educating children in an active life position. I think my work will benefit not only my peers, but also all the residents of the village, because when getting acquainted with the life and work of their countrymen, pride in their native land is brought up respect for its inhabitants.
