Peter, when you'll learn the difference between the navy & army
Shame on your poor ass! Could you not tell a navy from an army, Sergeant?
Overall your article Maverick Jurist was all right, with some glaring inconsistencies, as usual.
How come Vasylenko served in the Soviet Navy and joined Komsomol in the army? Oops!
<<...career plans changed after the Soviet Navy ordered him aboard a cruiser anchored off the Kamchatka peninsula. Most of the time the ship chased Japanese fishing boats, but Vasylenko said the highlight of his tour came when his ship shadowed a U.S. aircraft carrier in the Pacific Ocean.
Like most young recruits, Vasylenko joined the Komsomol in the army, and in 1961 he volunteered to defend Cuba against a possible U.S. military invasion of the island.
Taking leave from the navy, Vasylenko visited Vilnius, Lithuania’s capital, where he stayed with his great aunt, the wife of the country’s deputy timber and wood-processing minister.>>
Re: Peter, when you'll learn the difference between the navy & army
serving in "the army" [i.e. armed forced] in soviet times meant any branch, just as today.
