Hey, this is pretty cool. They teach the children proper drill techniques, show them how to clean and operate weapons, and even some war psychology. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAfZV-pcOMs[/media]
I saw this video some time ago, at one point the Russian leader-dude says something along the lines of "Those that we are trying to kill, are not really human"
[QUOTE=OzJackal;19372217]Sending kids off to war is pathetic.[/QUOTE] They're not sending kids off to war.
It's not a bad thing if they wanted to come and are enjoying it... Remember when that kid got sent to Aspen Acheivement for Teens in Cuba. That's probably worse than this, because they look like they're enjoying it...

Are they still sub-human to you?
[QUOTE=JerryK;19372328]No, because they're human. They're just messed up in the head.[/QUOTE] We'll at that point, it'd be alright to kill them because they're doing evil. That justifies it.

Oh Russia, giving kids weapons just justifies that you are the mentally retarded cousin of Europe.
You understand the US and UK both have things just like this for kids. You realize this, right?
I like how the AK's are the same size as them. At 2:17. It's a Norwegian Microphone. This footage is stolen :O
[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;19373370]You understand the US and UK both have things just like this for kids. You realize this, right?[/QUOTE] This is Russia., so we must be cynical.
I always dreamed of such a thing as a kid. Summer camps were too lame.
Even swedishland has things like this.
Facepunch is just jealous that these kids are at a higher level of baddassery that most of us on facepunch will never achieve.
Hah! Every person whos posted against this is either xenaphobic or doesn't realise that pretty much every country has this. I did Army cadets for 5 years, was fun as fuck and taught me a load of shit I can still use in every day situations... like first aid.
I think it's a great way to give these kids a choice to form their life, instead of being a bum on the streets, they get a choice. 10 might be a little too young since they can't tell right from wrong and they're still forming their mind and this might affect them negatively. Not to mention I can't see how they can make pre-selection at that age.
Badass as all hell.

Arg, I was always playing soldier when I was little. With wooden guns and stuff, walkie-talkies. Crawling in bushes in the mud. Why didn't my country had a summer camp like this?
Awww, Wish I got that when I was younger...
All countries should do something like this. It would give us a better sense of appreciation for our armed forces.
To those who are wondering they are wearing KLMK, The white spots are called bunnys/rabbits. That camo is extremely effective
[QUOTE=Wakka;19372316]If some militia invades your town and begin killing the ones you love, wouldn't you consider them sub-human?[/QUOTE] when you unarm one and then he starts begging for his life, surely you'll start having second thoughts.
Fuck yeah Russia :ussr: [editline]06:12PM[/editline] [QUOTE=OzJackal;19372217]Sending kids off to war is pathetic.[/QUOTE] You're an idiot and a bad listener
[QUOTE=Epidemick;19379117]when you unarm one and then he starts begging for his life, surely you'll start having second thoughts.[/QUOTE] That's why you should shoot them on sight.
[QUOTE=H4ngman;19374367]I always dreamed of such a thing as a kid. Summer camps were too lame.[/QUOTE] Same.
[QUOTE=Epidemick;19379117]when you unarm one and then he starts begging for his life, surely you'll start having second thoughts.[/QUOTE] If they'd killed one of my family members or friends already then I definitely wouldn't.
Big deal. Other countries have programs like ROTC for example to show kids what a military career is like if they considered one in the future. That sounds pretty awesome though "HEY KIDZ LETS PLAY OPEN TERRAIN WARFARE"
