How is it in the military?
Many people ask themselves how it is in the army and whether it is worth going to the army. What does military training look like and what soldiers actually do in the army. Today I will try to make only three points.
✔️1. Is it worth going to the army? - financial issues and more. ✔️
It depends on what you expect from the army. When it comes to financial matters, it definitely pays off. The military will give you an apartment or a boarding school. Your salary is credited to your account every month without delay. As a new soldier, you will also get a development allowance. In addition, every year uniform, 13th and holiday bonus for each family member.
In addition, additional allowances for service and training field exercises. Sometimes there is a financial reward. The privates rarely get a financial reward, and if they do, it is in the range of several hundred zlotys.
Annually, the private will earn about PLN 60,000. This is what comes out on PIT.
In the unit you can buy breakfast and lunch. In the afternoon, you can use the sports hall and gym.
Also in financial terms, it is ok. If you have higher requirements and would like to earn over PLN 60,000, you can go to an officer school and try to make a career as an officer. An officer junior to the captain, having several years of service, can earn about 80 - 90,000 zlotys.
Nevertheless, service in the army is quite hard and requires sacrifices and sacrifices. Especially in a linear unit, that is, mechanized or armored. Lots of exercises where you sit for days. Training grounds, sometimes even over a month. Shooting and night exercises during the week. 24h service 1-2 times a month. If you have a family, you need to think carefully about it.
If someone is a military lover, it's worth going. You will learn to shoot with different types of weapons. You're running on the tactical belt. You will get a little wet, cold, get dirty with mud. You will improve your condition (daily morning dressing). Also, sometimes you won't get enough sleep, you'll be extremely tired, and your lunch will sometimes be cold. Sometimes you will eat all your meals on the tactical belt and they will all arrive cold. And sometimes you will also have to sleep in the woods, in the cold, under a makeshift shelter. This also has to be reckoned with.
✔️2. Who should go to the army? What is the perfect soldier? ✔️
It is best to go to the army as early as possible. After turning 18 or at the age of twenty. Then you are still young. The army will shape you in its own way. You ask fewer questions. You have no family, no children and no problems.
However, a soldier with a wife and children is a problem. The wife gets sick or the child gets sick and the trouble is no more. From the perspective of the platoon commander and company, it's best to have a bachelor in your team. But that's not the rule.
Very good soldiers are also those over 40. Even around 50 years. Children raised up, they already have some baggage of experience, they ate bread from more than one oven, respect their work and want to earn the 4,000 zlotys in peace. They really are tough guys who don't cry like some pee in their twenties.
✔️3. What is a typical day like in the military? ✔️
A typical day in the army is defined by the so-called order of the day. It is a plan that tells what time it is being implemented. There are always a lot of ventures and little time. As for professional soldiers, the day starts at 7.00. First, there is the morning mortar, about 15-20 minutes. Later, morning roll-call at 07.30. At the roll call, the commander sets tasks and deals with current affairs and problems.
Classes start at 08.00. So just like in school, only the subjects are a bit different. 7 hours 45 minutes each with 5-minute breaks. So the program activities end at 13.45. Later, there are 45 minutes for current affairs, i.e. briefings for squad leaders, briefings, cleaning, equipment and weapons maintenance and other crap. Around 2.30 pm there is an afternoon roll-call, during which the commander's daily order is read and the tasks are settled.
Later, there is time to clean up workplaces, i.e. soldiers' chambers, external and internal regions, and other current matters, mostly paperwork, because the army creates a lot of documents (by the way). 15.30 is leaving the department home.
When it comes to volunteer soldiers, that is, the preparatory service, the academic legion or the voluntary essential military service, the order of the day starts with a wake up call at 06.00. There is time for the morning toilet, areas, i.e. cleaning and breakfast. There is lunch before the afternoon roll-call. After the call, you can organize additional training and so-called self-study.
