The duties of sentry and guard. Duties and actions of the sentry

The sentry is the most important post. The person occupying it must not only meet certain (many, by the way) requirements. He must observe the duty of the sentry. And there are a lot of them. So it's worth talking about them.

Main provisions

The duties of the sentry are numerous. The first thing that a person occupying a given position should do is guard and defend the post. He must carry the service cheerfully, without being distracted by anything. You can not release weapons from your hands. And even more so give it away. Even to those to whom he is subordinate. If the sentry is on the observation tower, then he must carefully examine all possible approaches to the post. On the service, by the way, he must also report.

Post is forbidden to leave until the moment when the sentry is not removed or replaced. He must remain there even if his life is threatened by some kind of danger. This is a crime against military service. The weapon must be loaded and ready for action at any time. Also, the duty of the sentry is that he should not allow anyone closer to his post than the distance indicated in the report card. The exception is the guard's chief and his assistant, who breeds and faces accompanied by all.

Another responsibility of the sentry includes knowledge of the schedule of movement of the guard vehicle, their identification signals and signs, plus the routes on which the above follow. Also, he must be able, if necessary, to apply the fire extinguishing equipment available at the post.

If the guard noticed a malfunction in the fence of the object, then he should call the guard's chief. And after hearing the howling of a guard dog or the sound of a security alarm, it is obliged to report this to the guardhouse.

About weapons

The charter of the guard service obliges the sentry to carry weapons with a bayonet attached. It has its own peculiarities. The bayonet must be in a sheath attached to the waist belt. An automatic machine with a folding butt can not have a bayonet. If the sentry carries a service at night, then he must keep his weapon in a position from which it is possible to carry out the shooting standing up. In the afternoon it is "on the strap".

If the employee is in the inner post or the Battle flag, then his machine must also be in the "on the belt" position (if the weapon has a wooden butt). The pistol must be kept in the holster (always buttoned), on the waist belt. If the weapon is an automatic machine with a folding butt, then it must be placed in the "on the chest" position. A carbine - "to the foot." It is worth knowing that if there is a fire, then during its extinguishing the sentry has the right to move his weapon behind his back.

So, the carrying out of guard duty, as it was already possible to understand above, assumes carrying of the weapon. When can it be applied? There are such situations, and they are described in the statute. So, the watchman is not what he can-he has to resort to weapons without warning, if an obvious attack is being made on him. He can also shoot if he encroaches on an object he is guarding. Having seen an obvious threat, or undergoing physical attacks from the attacker, he must shoot. Since otherwise the sentry may not be in time to prevent a danger that threatens not only his life, but also other people. But! Shots should not damage third parties and the directly protected object.

Prohibitions

Now it is worthwhile to tell about the prohibition of the regulations of the guard service. Sentry can do almost anything. He can not eat while eating, drink, sleep, smoke. Even leaning against anything is forbidden. Manage natural needs and talk - even more so. Accepting and transferring any items is also prohibited. He has no right to recharge the gun. He can only answer the questions of the guard's chief or his assistant.

In general, as you can see, a lot of bans are imposed. So only the person with very strong endurance and patience can occupy a guard post.

Interaction with other persons

The duty of the sentry in the guard includes many provisions. And it is not surprising, because people occupying this post, guard the most important state or military facilities. Therefore, all persons who are trying to approach the military post or to the forbidden border of the post (they are indicated by signs on the ground), he warns by shouting "Stop, back!" Or "Stop, go around left / right!". The exception is the above (that is, the chief of the guard, his assistant, escort, etc.)

And if other people do not carry out the warning, then the watchman's duties in the guard allow him to shout: "Stop, I'll shoot!" And detain the offender. This he immediately must inform the guardroom and continue to monitor the person who disobeyed the warning. At the same time, he must continue to serve.

In those situations when the intruder did not even listen to the second warning, the sentry must send the cartridge into the chamber and shoot once up. This is a warning. Third, as you can see. And if the intruder ignores even a warning shot, continuing his actions or fleeing, then the sentry must use a weapon on him.

Ways to communicate

The guard post is a serious place. And this could already be understood from the above. It should be told a little more about how the sentry addresses those or other persons while in the service. For example, if the post is poor visibility, and he heard footsteps, then you need to shout: "Halt, who goes?". If the answer is not given or if the violator crosses the forbidden border line, then the duty of the sentry and sentry is to shout the phrase: "Stop, I'll shoot!". After this, the person should be detained. Then, as already mentioned above, the employee informs about this in the relevant paragraph.

If the question is answered, which sounds like: "The guard's chief is going (or another position)", the sentry is obliged to order: "The guard's chief is to me, the rest are on the spot." Also, the employee has every right to demand to light the person of the person who is suitable for the post. He should be convinced of the person approaching the protected object. And only after he sees with his own eyes that the right one is really the one whom he introduced himself, he can let all those who come with him come to him. In these situations, especially with poor visibility, the watch should be especially careful. The duties are as follows.

If the person who called himself lied, and he is not the chief of the guard, and also ignored the employee's warnings, then the cry follows: "Stop, I'll shoot!". For non-fulfillment of the requirement, the weapon is used for the offender.

Other situations

The above is not all that the watchman should keep. The duties of the sentry still include the need to engage in hand-to-hand fighting to protect themselves and the object that it guards. Also, he must bravely act either with a butt or with a knife-bayonet.

If a fire broke out on the post, the guard must first report this to the guardroom, continuing to monitor the facility and apply fire-fighting measures.

In the situation when the sentry was wounded or he suddenly felt a severe malaise, he must summon the guardian or the guard's chief, while not stopping the service. If the event is urgent (or when the communication device has become unusable), the sentry can call the persons concerned to the post with a shot up.

About the information report

All of the above must comply with the strict order of the hour. His duties, by the way, also prescribe a mandatory report of information on what happened during the time of service, who arrived on the post of commanders. This can be done approximately in this form: "Comrade Lieutenant! During the service, a drunken man who had crossed the border of the post and did not listen to the warning was detained. " By the way, the duty of the guard includes the greeting of all persons who came to his office. The way it should be announced is set out in the Combat Charter of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. During the greeting, the machine is transferred to the "on the belt" position.

It is worth knowing that the guard, carrying the service at the Battle-Banner, is in a free position. He is obliged to take the drill stand only if it is necessary to greet the servicemen.

Also, during the reception of the Battle Banner under his guard, the sentry must examine - whether the case (case) is in good condition, and also whether there is a seal on it. The Guard can issue a Banner only on the basis of a personal order given by the commander. In situations where a post in the Battle Banner is threatened by any danger (for example, the same fire), the guard is obliged to inform all the information about this to the higher military and, ensuring the safety of the Banner, take him to a place where he will not have anything To threaten.

What is not in the statute

This is not all that the watch should follow. The duty of the sentry is not only in the statute. They are also stipulated outside this document. So, for example, he should be aware of the access regime at his own post and know the security system in all details. The guard must know about how the originals of passes and other documents look like, about their expiry date and other nuances.

To skip a person, he can only by his own pass. The guard must carefully check the document - not only the photograph, but also the expiration date. If there are discrepancies of any kind, then the duties and actions of the sentry in this situation allow him to detain this person and call for the chief of the guard.

Another employee is obliged to stop a vehicle trying to penetrate beyond the border of the post and demand the presentation of documents allowing travel. If the car has arrived for any property, it is necessary to check the way-sheet, where the quantity and the name of those items that are subject to export / import are clearly stipulated. And, of course, the duty of the sentry internal troops is observance of silence. That is, he should not report any data, references, ciphers, omissions, etc. People who arrived at the facility.

Reception and delivery of a post

Naturally, the entire guard service can not lie on the employee alone. The duties of the sentry are difficult and important - therefore, each of these persons has the right to rest. But before you go to translate the spirit, you must pass the fast. Change of sentries is carried out every two hours. If the outside temperature is less than -20 degrees, or a strong wind rages, the sentries change hourly. The same is true if the air has been heated above +30 C °. At the change, the guard's chief makes appropriate notes in the checklist.

How does all this happen? When the changer is approaching the sentry somewhere for 10-15 steps, the divorcee will announce the command: "Change - stand!". Then he voiced an order, according to which one of the sentries should observe the post, as well as the approaches leading to it. It might look like this: "Private Timofeev. Fasting and approaches under temporary observation take. " Then the guard must stand face to approach the shift, take the machine ("on the belt"). At the command: "Private Romanov, for the post - step march!" The sentry must take the drill, take a step right. A sentry - go to him and stand in his place, always in the opposite direction. After the command: "The sentry, pass the post!" He carries out what he said verbally. That is, verbally hand over the post. The guard and the sentry must turn their heads to each other at that moment. The second of the listed names the post number and lists all that is subject to protection. Also the watchmaker is obliged to say that he noticed about the object during his service. As soon as all this is done, the command follows: "Guard, take the post!" - and the person walks around the guarded object, checks whether the lighting, gates, fences, etc. are correct.

Then each of the employees ends up with all the words: "Comrade Sergeant, Private Timofeev Post No. 3 handed over" and "Comrade Sergeant, Private Romanov Post No. 3 accepted." Finishes all the team diligent: "Private Timofeev, with the post - step march!".

Duties of the chief of guard

Finally I would like to briefly list them. The chief of the guard is a person who is responsible for the protection, as well as the defense of those objects that are entrusted to the guard. He also monitors the readiness of sentries. It is he who is responsible for their service, for how correctly and competently they observe all that they are entrusted with. Ammunition, weapons, vehicles and other property - everything is under his responsibility.

He has the right to demand from the change of firm knowledge and the corresponding performance of all duties. The chief accepts arms, boxes with ammunition, technical means of protection and communication. He also examines and inspects especially important protected objects, looks, whether this or that technique is serviceable. If an attack has been committed on the post or there has been some unforeseen situation, the consequences of which can be extremely dangerous for the lives of people, sentries, sentries and objects - he must immediately arrive at the site and begin the operation to eliminate the incident.

The chief directs the sentries to strictly fixed time and keeps under control the combat readiness of the reserve employees. He also performs combat calculation. At least two times a day to check how the military is on duty at the post. And if they receive calls from them, then they must come to the site of the object's protection personally. If a post of a malfunction of any kind is revealed, the chief must arrive at the site, personally establish the nature of the damage and the reasons for this, and then take all possible measures to solve the problem.

In general, as it was possible to notice, the guard service is an activity that assumes a great responsibility. For people, for objects, for the territory adjacent to them, for weapons, ammunition and much more. So the persons carrying this service are not just military. They are people of the highest endurance, patience and courage.
