Russia: How children are trained to become true patriots

They get up from bed, put on their uniform and prepare for the lesson. Their trainer strictly looks over their appearance, judging how appropriate it is, and starts giving orders. Abs first, then bending exercises and then floor exercises for warming up. These are then followed by instructions on how one can load and shoot.

Minors pupils of the School of General Germolov in Stavropol of Russia are trained to become strong soldiers, obedient and patriotic, forgetting childhood and innocence that would be appropriate for their age.

Aspiring... patriots, along with lessons of language, physics and history, participate in lessons of military strategy and patriotism, as mentioned in the british International Business Times publication.

The state school allows pupils to participate in educational military trips, during which they can spend the night at a military base and take part in special exercises where they will handle weaponry.

Of course, these trips are only available for students who are progressing in school and have good grades and a mood to improve even more, in order to perhaps prove their love for their country in the future.
