Shovel and machine gun operator. Why the infantry remains the most important specialty in the army

The most important specialty in the army is the infantryman who plays with death every second in dirty trenches, in the cold and heat. According to the military correspondent, Yuri Butusov, so all who saw the war in their own eyes are considered, and therefore the jamming must be preserved. Commanders think that the most important specialty is the Himars and F-16 operator. Generals think that the most important specialty is a fighter.

Combriges think that the most important specialty is the drone operator and the artilleryman. The combat thinks that the most important specialty is mouth.

Rat, a fighter, a drone operator, an artilleryman, the calculation of Himars and F-16 think that the most important specialty is the infantry, which plays with death every second in dirty trenches, among the cold and heat, insects and mice, in raw small burrow To fix under fire, to wear everything on yourself, to build everything with your own hands, to attract most strokes, bringing the most dangerous burden on your shoulders.

The infantryman thinks how to survive until the next replacement with a position, as if to capture a trophy pokemon, as if at least once a trench would have dug and brought down logs, and how to get a certificate of acubrootrauma with his mouth and relax for at least a couple of weeks.

He also thinks that the one who has never kept completely mowed with fragments of landing under the corrected fire of artillery, drones, aviation, rockets, and did not enter the melee, does not understand the nature of the war for exhaustion, in which the most expensive specialty is the operator of the shovel and machine gun.

The preservation of infantry is the main resource and tactical purpose of the modern war, around the infantry rod it is necessary to concentrate military technologies, the purchase of technology, to change the tactics and organizational structure of all other important troops, the procedure for use. This does not happen, unfortunately.

The time of the Volunteer Infantry, which was torn in maneuverable battles with grenade launchers, has passed, but in a position war, the need for a quality infantry intensified. The infantry, to preserve, should become the most privileged troops, a real rod. It is not a question of humanism - it is a key issue of military logistics and state economy, the price of war should be calculated.
