In our country, the authorities have always paid great attention to veterans. Veterans of the Great Patriotic War constitute a special category: they still enjoy a fairly significant package of benefits. This is quite natural, because people, having fought under Soviet flags with the Nazis, actually granted us - at that time future generations - freedom from possible German bondage. But there is one more group of veterans to whom the overwhelming majority of representatives of today's Russian society owes no less - the veterans of the internal affairs and internal troops. These wonderful people celebrate their, one might say, professional holiday, the Day of Veterans of Internal Affairs Bodies and Internal Troops, on April 17 every year.


Date history

The solemn event that takes place every spring is still very young. The Day of Veterans of Internal Troops and Ministry of Internal Affairs Troops was established only in 2011 by Rashid Nurgaliyev, who at that time was the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The date itself was chosen, according to the historical fact: it was on April 17 that the Public Organization of Veterans of Internal Affairs Bodies and Internal Troops appeared and began to function. It happened in 1991, so we can assume that the date is timed to coincide with the 20th anniversary of the formation of this association.

Holiday on April 17, the Day of Veterans of Internal Affairs Bodies and Internal Troops is very important. People who have long retired, behind whom there are many solved crimes, do not sit idly by, but continue their activities outside the service organizations of law enforcement. How is this manifested? The work of veterans is carried out in various directions: promoting the need to comply with laws on the protection of law and order, disseminating valuable information among young people - first of all, among teenagers who have not reached the age of majority, helping young, current police officers. The result of the unofficial activities of veterans is obvious: according to the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, thanks to these people, a huge number of crimes are disclosed every year. This means that without the personal enthusiasm of veterans, many criminal cases would not have gotten off the ground for a very long time, and those who committed them would have remained unpunished. In other words, justice would have triumphed much less often.



Who are veterans?

Let's talk about the heroes of the occasion on this significant Day of Veterans of Internal Affairs Bodies and Internal Troops.

The number of veterans in Russia at the moment is about 650 thousand people. I mean precisely the people who have dedicated their lives to serving the good of their homeland. These include the following categories of citizens:

  • veterans of the Great Patriotic War;
  • veterans participating in hostilities in hot spots (Afghanistan, Chechnya);
  • veterans participating in the liquidation of the monstrous consequences of the Chernobyl accident.

All kinds of veteran organizations function on the territory of our country. In addition to the already mentioned groups of citizens, they include veterans who served at the time in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Regional and district organizations of a similar nature are subordinate to federal associations. In principle, in fact, veterans of the civil service and labor veterans are also links in this chain that is significant for the life of the entire country, because their contribution to the development of social activities is also invaluable.

What does the state and the government apparatus do for veterans of all currently available categories? The policy pursued by the authorities focuses on such aspects as the adoption of certain measures for the social support of veterans, the formation of specific specific structures, the allocation of funds from the federal budget necessary to award this category of citizens with state awards (orders and medals). Most of the actions in relation to veterans are regulated by the Federal Law of the Russian Federation "On Veterans" dated January 11, 1995 No. 5-FZ.

Among the variety of veteran communities, the largest are the Russian Organizing Committee "Victory". It is headed by the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin. The Central Council of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation for Veterans Affairs also functions. The head of this association is the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation. Similar, but smaller-scale organizations have been created in fleets, military districts and other divisions.


The history of the word and the very status of "veteran" is interesting. The term translated from Latin literally means "a soldier who served his time in the army" (from vetus - old). It is clear that the first veterans appeared in ancient Rome. They were former legionnaires during the time of Julius Caesar. Such soldiers had at least 20 years of service behind them, and after that they were dismissed or continued to remain with the army. The troops of that era had a fickle, unstable character: as soon as the hostilities died down, the legion was disbanded. Only in the 1st century BC. the formation of the army began on a permanent basis. Roman veterans enjoyed privileges of excellent quality: the right to use their own piece of land, which was given to them by the state, or, as an option, to receive remuneration for selfless long-term work in cash. In addition, the former Roman legionary no longer had to carry out the duties imposed on him by the state.

Veteran awards

We are all aware that there is a Veteran of Labor medal, which was previously awarded to persons who distinguished themselves in the professional field by conscientious work. It was established by a decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR in 1974. Even more important is the medal "For Valiant Labor in the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945." Such award must be located on the left side of the subject's chest prior to the previous award.


Those who faithfully served for the good of the Fatherland in the internal troops are also entitled to a medal. It is jubilee and is called “200 Years of Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia”. This award is presented not only to ordinary veterans, but also to combat veterans. The delivery process is carried out by the deputy. The Minister of Internal Affairs or his deputy on behalf of the Minister himself on the basis of an appropriate order in a solemn atmosphere. In addition to the medal, the veteran is issued a certificate. The record of the presentation of the award is entered in the personal file and work book of the person whose work deserves the highest praise. The medal is to be worn on the left side of the chest, immediately after the insignia “200 years of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia”.

If we talk about the latter, then this medal is a departmental award of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation. It was founded a little over 10 years ago, on June 5, 2002. On this occasion, order No. 542 was signed. The Medal “200 Years of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia” is awarded to veterans of this structure, as well as to persons who help the employees of the unit in their difficult work. The award is worn on the left side of the chest after the badge "For Excellence in Service".

Veterans of the internal affairs agencies and internal troops will be very glad to sincere congratulations on the significant Day of veterans of internal affairs agencies and internal troops on April 17. Especially if the addressees of warm wishes become, in addition to relatives and friends, the youth with whom the work is carried out, and the grateful employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Happy holiday, dear veterans!

We sincerely congratulate all veterans on their holiday on April 17, the Day of veterans of the internal affairs bodies and internal troops.


On April 17, Russia celebrates the Day of Veterans of Internal Affairs Bodies and Internal Troops. This is a relatively young holiday. It was established on August 12, 2010 by order of the former Minister of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, Rashid Nurgaliyev. It was first celebrated in 2011. The date of April 17 was not chosen by chance, it was timed to coincide with the 20th anniversary of the creation of the Public Organization of Veterans of the Internal Affairs Directorate and Internal Troops, formed on April 17, 1991.

In Russia, veterans are always given special attention. A special category of our citizens are veterans of the Great Patriotic War, who are respected by the whole society and have a package of various benefits. Such an attitude is natural, since thanks to these people who fought against fascism, virtually all of us were given a future, freedom from possible German bondage. At the same time, there is another group of veterans in Russia to whom the Russian society owes no less today - these are veterans of the internal affairs bodies and internal troops.

The Day of Veterans of Internal Affairs Bodies and Internal Troops is a holiday of all those people who served their country with honor, defended its citizens from the encroachments of criminals, defended us with weapons in their hands during counterterrorist operations, stood guard over law and order. Fidelity to civic duty and the chosen path of life, their heroism can only evoke deserved respect from the current employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Currently, more than 600 thousand veterans live in the Russian Federation, who in different years served in the internal affairs bodies or internal troops. At the same time, veterans, even in retirement, do not sit idly by, continuing to benefit society. They are engaged in promoting the observance of law and order and the rule of law, work and train young employees of the internal affairs bodies, transferring the accumulated experience and knowledge, devote time to preventive work among minors by visiting schools. According to the press service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, thanks to the help of veterans and veteran organizations and their invaluable experience, a fairly large number of crimes are disclosed in the country every year, it is possible to arrest dangerous criminals. In 2012 alone, with the help of veterans of internal affairs, almost 24 thousand crimes were solved. Today every 5th veteran takes part in the practical activities of the internal affairs bodies and subdivisions of the internal troops of Russia.

There are more than 30 thousand veterans of the Interior Ministry troops in Russia. At the same time, there are public organizations of veterans of the internal troops at all military units, formations and institutions of the Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. Even where there were formerly military units and formations that were disbanded, sections of veterans of internal troops are often created in veteran organizations of the Internal Affairs Directorate.

They help veterans of the internal affairs bodies and orphanages, teenagers from single-parent and dysfunctional families, often taking patronage over them. They try, to the best of their ability, to fight against such a shameful phenomenon for the country as child homelessness. Unfortunately, Russia has not been able to defeat this phenomenon to the end since the time of the civil war. It is no secret that such work of veterans helps to form a positive attitude of Russian society towards the internal affairs department, employees of the internal troops, as well as to the apparatus of the Ministry of Internal Affairs as a whole - Russian citizens do not always treat law enforcement officers with respect and understanding, and for this, unfortunately, also find their reasons.

Among the veterans there are also relatively young people, some of them are not even 30 years old. These are those who served in the North Caucasus and in other "hot spots" on the territory of our country, who received serious wounds, injuries and disabilities during the service, but did not break down and did not lose their place in the ranks. At the same time, the veterans of the Internal Affairs Directorate and Internal Affairs try to take care of the families of employees who died in the line of duty - they try to provide them not only material assistance, but psychological support, lending their shoulders.

Every year on April 17, veterans of the internal affairs bodies and internal troops receive congratulations from colleagues, relatives and friends. In addition, on this day, festive events are organized not only in veteran organizations, but also in operating units, since the work of veterans continues to be a part of their activities. Traditionally, on this memorable day, festive concerts, tea parties, solemn meetings are held, veterans are presented with memorable gifts, honorary awards and certificates. But the festive events are not limited to this. ATS and VV veterans try not to lose their energy and activity, maintaining their physical shape. Sports competitions and shooting tournaments are held especially for them, with both men and women taking part in them. Both of them set a personal example for young law enforcement officers. Also, together with representatives of the public, veterans try to organize and conduct methodological conferences, at which fairly topical issues and problems are discussed.

We join the congratulations to the veterans. I would like to wish all veterans of the Department of Internal Affairs and Internal Troops of Russia health, longevity, may they also actively continue to participate in public life, helping their younger colleagues.
