Mangystau marines began combat training at sea. Over 100 infantrymen of the Caspian Flotilla took part in exercises. The first swim on the armored personnel carrier took place on a specialized space, which is located 50 meters from the coastline. The length of the water route is 500 meters. The sea soldiers dived to a depth of more than two meters. This is the second stage of driver-mechanics training in the army. Previously, military conscripts worked out the practical knowledge of driving an armored carrier on land. The exercises will continue until August 19.
“We have learned to overcome water barriers. It's a great experience for us. We’ve been preparing for this day for a long time. I think we successfully completed the tasks set during these combat training sessions,” said driver-mechanic of a military unit Nurdos Bolatkaizin.
