New issue of ODBRANA

For most professional soldiers, the step towards the rank of a sergeant could be a turning point in their career. Those who see their long-term future in the Armed Forces of Serbia are counting on that chance and are determined to take it. About just how much endeavor a soldier is willing to invest to become a noncommissioned officer, you can read in the latest issue 228 of ODBRANA of March 15, along with the messages of Commander of 126th Air Surveillance/Intelligence and Guidance Brigade, the unit whose members constantly, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, watchfully monitor the airspace over our country and who are preparing to mark a century of its foundation in Serbia. In the latest issue, Odbrana also brings you a story about selling military dogs, which are too old to conduct complex and difficult tasks.
