Belarusian servicemen demonstrated on STB the conditions in which mandatory military-patriotic camps for high school students will take place, the publication "Zerkalo" noted.
Large army tents have already been prepared for the participants; each will accommodate no more than 15 people. In total, the brigade will host 60 high school students from four schools in Minsk region and Minsk.

The military-patriotic camps will begin on May 25 and last ten days. As Denis Bobak, commander of the separate radio-technical battalion of the 49th radio-technical brigade of the Air Force and Air Defense Forces, said, efforts will be made to make the conditions for schoolchildren as close to military as possible.
"A mattress, a pillowcase, a towel are provided; personal necessities will be kept in bedside tables, and other items will be stored neatly under the bed," Bobak said.
In addition, the tents will be equipped with lighting and additional heating, because "nights are still cold, in case it suddenly gets cold."

In the morning, schoolchildren will use army washbasins, and in the evening they will be able to visit the military bathhouse. As Denis Bobak noted, the bathhouse provides separate rooms for changing and washing, as well as hot water. Meals will be organized in the army canteen.
"A standard menu, close to army rations, has been planned. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, with an additional afternoon snack. For the afternoon snack, we will additionally provide chocolate and milk. The diet is quite balanced: fish, cheese, borscht. Everything to ensure the guys have enough energy for the whole day," the battalion commander reported.

After lunch, we will give them some rest, after which classes will resume, and educational work, various entertainment, volleyball, football will be conducted with them. Whatever is necessary for them, everything will be concentrated and conducted on the same scale as for conscript servicemen," he stated.
