. And in Belarus - not a single one. "Flaw!" - the president pointed out their absence during . “There must be at least one female general.” It is possible that a female general will appear in Belarus soon.

It’s interesting that the world’s first female general, who is also the world’s first female cosmonaut, is Valentina Tereshkova, whose parents were from Belarus.

Tereshkova’s father, a tractor driver, is from the Belynichi district, and her mother, a textile factory worker, is from Dubrovensky. As Valentina Vladimirovna herself said, as a child she spoke Belarusian. On military service Valentina Tereshkova was called up as soon as she joined the cosmonaut corps - in 1962, when she had just turned 25. And Tereshkova received the rank of Major General of the Air Force in 1995. That is, it took her 33 years to achieve her title.

Today at the Ministry of Defense 4 female colonels. Another one serves in the border troops. There are at least three female colonels in the police, and as many as eight in the Investigative Committee. There are also female colonels in the state security agencies, but due to the fact that information about them is classified as secret, the KGB did not report their exact number.

Colonel - Deputy Chief investigation department and head of the department for the investigation of crimes against persons, public security of the Investigative Committee for Minsk. Popularly, the department headed by Galina Vladimirovna is simply called homicide. And this means that all the corpses, murders, rapes of Minsk are in the department of this department and Colonel Elinskaya personally.

She has 14 men under her command. “Guys, as you can see, there is something to strive for,” Galina Elinskaya often tells them. And he immediately adds: “You just need to work hard.” Galina Vladimirovna is sure that there will definitely be a female general in Belarus. “Maybe not me,” she is modest, but does not hide the fact that “the lieutenant who does not want to become a general is bad.” What helped you become a colonel? "Purposefulness, a great desire to work and improve ( Galina Elinskaya did not limit herself to the Faculty of Law of BSU; she received a second degree from the Academy of Management under the President. - TUT.BY), and also a reliable rear," she answers. The rear is a reliable husband and good family. Galina Elinskaya married an air defense officer and says that, in fact, thanks to him she was able to work well: “When I go out at night to kill, there would be no understanding, there would be no result.” Now the husband is retired. Galina Vladimirovna wishes that her daughter, who is 21 years old, would get at least a third of these: “Then I would be happy with my fate.”

Galina Elinskaya also has reliable friends. One of them, right there on the phone, tells the correspondent about “what Galina gets”: “She is a sparkling person, she has so much energy that she has enough attention and time for everyone, she will always help. She has a strong masculine character - always will express his point of view." And, at the same time, she passes everything through herself. The same one is in the refrigerator - the woman was at the scene of the incident all night: “If you don’t delve into it, don’t work with full dedication, don’t keep a human face, they won’t believe it.”

Border Guard Colonel Olga Cherginets I started looking into the service at the age of 15, when I lived in Afghanistan with my father Nikolai Cherginets, the current chairman of the Union of Writers of Belarus. “My father went on combat missions, and we sat in the apartment and waited for him.” It seemed to the girl then that only there was the honest, most real life. And when I went to the Union, it seemed that I was leaving for a short time: “I’ll finish my studies and come back...”

In the USSR, girls were not accepted into the service; young Olga wrote letters to the Ministry of Defense, and, of course, received refusals. So I applied to the law faculty of BSU. “Father didn’t want to, he stamped his feet, intimidated...” But it didn’t work. And when, after graduating from law school with honors, I took my documents to the military registration and enlistment office and went to serve as a lieutenant, my father didn’t speak at all for two months. It happened that they looked askance and openly asked what she was doing here. And in general, many believed that a girl among the military could only look for a husband. “It was hard to break a blank wall. Although the border troops have very polite men, no one openly laughed at me.” And Olga Cherginets can stand up for herself. I ask her how. “Easy,” the woman laughs. And he adds that now the attitude towards women in the service is changing. At checkpoints where special care is needed, women cope better.

Today, the everyday life of a female colonel is more like the work of an official. Now her 17-year-old son is going to follow in her footsteps - after the 9th grade he entered law college and plans to become an investigator. “Somewhere I’m angry at him for going the same way...” And the 13-year-old daughter is a creative person and has already starred in a small episode of a film about Vaenga.

Colonel medical service Larisa Babushkina wears a uniform every day, because she is the head of the outpatient center 432 of the Main Military Clinical Medical Center of the Armed Forces of Belarus. "All my military personnel are receiving military uniform, well, and a robe on top." But Larisa Vasilievna does not walk down the street in uniform, she changes clothes at work - because the uniform attracts too much attention, because it carries information: it shows the position, rank, awards, branch of the military. "In It’s impossible to travel by bus, I tell you this honestly, because everyone starts watching, and those who are bolder ask questions and comment. And if a person is a little tipsy, then generally...”

But wherever a woman in uniform comes, it seems to those around her that everything should be clear and without objections. When Larisa Babushkina walks into the uniform administrative building, it’s easier for her to achieve what she wants: “People see that in front of them is a representative of the Ministry of Defense.”

It’s interesting that they saw a military doctor in Larisa Vasilievna back at school: “Our initial military medical training at school was conducted by a reserve colonel, I don’t remember his last name, he said: “You, Babushkina, will write prescriptions for officers.” To the remark that you don’t feel there is sternness in her, she says: “You don’t know me well.”

Gorgeous red hair, a “Bourgeois” powder compact in her hands... With Marina Perevertova we meet in her office. She is an endocrinologist in the gastroenterology department of the same 432nd Main Military Clinical Medical Center of the Armed Forces and a colonel. Although she says that she is “a very ordinary woman” and a doctor. She was drafted into the Armed Forces of the Republic of Belarus in 1995. She served in tarpaulin boots and with weapons in her hands for only a year - in the landing force (now it is the 103rd mobile brigade), and since 1996 she has been working in a hospital. So he considers himself first and foremost a doctor. And Marina Perevertova received the rank of colonel in 2010, after 15 years of service. By the way, together with Larisa Babushkina, they were the first women colonels in the armed forces. And although today her service is connected with patients, Marina Perevertova shoots a Makarov pistol well, although only during training sessions. In ordinary life, a female colonel does not like to command anyone. On March 8, like all women, she is waiting for the first spring flowers from her beloved man.

Colonel, head of the military department of the Gomel State Medical University, connected her life with the service because of her grandfather, he is a former career military man, “and by the will of fate, he did not have grandchildren, and he raised me, taught me how to navigate in the forest, fish, drive a car. We watched films about the war together, every weekend the program “I serve the Soviet Union” - from childhood. And while still a university student, I married an officer. When I was studying at the Vitebsk Medical Institute, I was a platoon commander for girls.” And in 1991, when it was allowed to conscript women into the army, her son had already grown up. Svetlana has no doubts about the correctness of her choice: “I have such a character - leadership and organizational traits are present. We have such women in our family, you can’t beat us,” Svetlana Anatolyevna laughs. Today, for her, the main thing in service and work is instilling a sense of patriotism. And for her, service, medicine and education “stand as one unit in one rank.” Svetlana Anashkina also does not walk down the street in uniform, because “if a person in uniform is in a hurry somewhere, this can cause panic among the population.” And whenever Svetlana was on a business trip in Minsk, there was never a time when someone didn’t turn to her: with grievances against the army, with gratitude, and even with consultations on health issues.
