As reported by the 10th Armored Cavalry Brigade in Świętoszów:
The first tactical exercise and first live-fire exercise for trainees of the Voluntary Compulsory Military Service in #10BKPanc.
Let us recall. On Monday, May 8, more than 90 people passed through the gate of the 10th Armored Cavalry Brigade in Świętoszów as part of their enlistment in the Voluntary Compulsory Military Service (DZSW). At the time, the unit reported:
The beginning of May also marked the beginning of the second DZSW training session of 2023. From the morning hours, volunteers arrived at the unit’s gate to undergo training with us, during which they would see what the military is like. First came the completion of documents, medical examinations, a conversation with a psychologist, finalizing the formalities and moving to the subunit, where they would spend the next month. There, they were assigned to platoons and squads and received uniforms and the necessary equipment. Now it was time to unpack and say goodbye to civilian belongings for the next 26 days. From now on, their everyday clothing would be a military uniform.
The uniformed personnel added:
DZSW is not only military training. It is also an excellent test for the trainees themselves. Their physical fitness, psychological resilience and ability to cope with stress will be tested. Time passes faster in the military, and only 26 days remain until the oath ceremony. Intensive exercises lie ahead, during which they will learn, among other things, how to shoot, handle weapons and perform drill.
