Everyone knows who the duty officer is at the checkpoint. The responsibilities of the person who is him are numerous. And also his responsibility is high. And I would like to briefly talk about all this.
Key Points
What should a checkpoint duty officer do first? The responsibilities are different, but the main one is the admission to the territory of the military unit of teams, units and individuals, which is carried out after checking all relevant documents.
It is worth knowing that this post can only be occupied by a person who is an ensign or sergeant. He is obliged to monitor compliance with the access regime at the entrance to the territory, and also to control the removal / deposit of property. By the way, he obeys the duty officer on the regiment or his assistant. To him, he is obliged to report on the surrender or reception of the post.
What needs to be done?
So, in general, it’s clear who the checkpoint duty officer is. Responsibilities - the next thing I would like to list.
Firstly, a military man after a divorce accepts inventory, equipment and documentation from an inventory.
Secondly, before allowing a newcomer to enter the regiment, the duty officer must check his documents. He also issues one-time passes, if necessary. But only with the permission of those who are approved in a special list by the regiment commander.
Thirdly, he must report to the duty officer on the regiment about the arrival of those people whose authenticity of documents is in doubt.
Fourthly, the military is forbidden to let out those who perform military service from the territory. If this is a dismissal, then the duty officer must ensure that the soldier is in uniform and with permits. And yet he is not allowed to issue a command without signal lights from the territory at night. Or without flags if it’s light outside.
And of course, the checkpoint duty officer should not leave his place. The charter prescribes this. You can leave, but only with the permission of higher persons and with the resignation of an assistant.
Greeting
And others have duty duty at the checkpoint. He should greet all the senior people who pass through the point. If these are officers from another part, the duty officer must also introduce himself. It may look like this: “Comrade Major General. Sergeant Alexandrov, on duty at the checkpoint. ” After the greeting, he is obliged to report the arrival to a superior. In this case, the duty officer on the shelf.
And of course, the unspoken rule, which, incidentally, is spelled out in the general charter, is to respect politeness and respect for departing and arriving.
About admission to the territory
As mentioned above, there is still an assistant duty officer at the checkpoint. And he has his duties. There are no fewer than those on duty.
So, one of the sergeants or soldiers is appointed to this post. He submits to the duty officer at the checkpoint for the duration of the duties of an assistant. The responsibility is the same - it monitors the admission to the territory of the regiment of persons and the export / import of property.
There are some nuances. Under the contract, he must let all the servicemen of his regiment enter the territory on an identity card. But if they are known to him in person, then it is possible without presenting documents. Draftees - only on dismissal notes. Also suitable as documents are alert cards, instructions, travel certificates. All other persons enter the territory with special passes.
What else is worth knowing?
In addition to the above, the assistant on duty, checking permanent or one-time passes, must compare them with samples. Each checkpoint contains them. He should also pay attention to the presence / absence of a seal and verify the person presenting the document with a photograph in it. The date of issue must also be looked at. The pass must not be expired. What about a temporary document? It must necessarily bear the mark of the person to whom the pass was issued. When the regiment commander, his deputy or officers from another unit arrives at the checkpoint, the assistant must immediately inform the duty officer.
Imported and exported property, by the way, is also checked by pass. A waybill is issued for him . In which it is indicated what exactly and in what specific quantity is allowed for export. And cars are also allowed to enter only after the driver has presented a waybill (material pass).
In the event that the attendant or his assistant notice the delay in the document, they do not have the right to allow his bearer to go through the checkpoint.
Preparing for a Fast
Before entering the checkpoint, the military must prepare. First of all, this relates to its appearance. Even the instruction of the duty officer at the checkpoint contains this item. And after putting his appearance in order, the military should arrive for a divorce.
After accepting the documentation, property, equipment and internal order for signature, the duty officer sends his assistant to bypass, who also must check the condition of the office premises and technical equipment under protection.
He also must observe the charter of the internal service of the armed forces. Keep the checkpoint clean and tidy, carry out wet cleaning if necessary, and monitor the correctness of service by your assistant.
If visitors arrived
People who are not related to the army often come to the military unit. In most cases, these are visitors who come to visit the soldiers. In this case, the attendant is also required to perform a number of actions.
Firstly, to find out the purpose of the visit, as well as who the soldier (whose identity is also specified) has arrived. After clarifying all the nuances, a visitor is asked for a passport and registered in the book of records in the prescribed form. Before a person enters the territory, he must be additionally notified of the hours of visit.
All potential visitors drunk or suspicious should not be missed. By the way, another person on duty (or his assistant) is required to require the person to show the contents of the bags that are with him. Anyone carrying a firearm or cold steel with them is forbidden to enter the military unit.
About bans
There is still a whole list of what the duty officer at the checkpoint should not do. The charter prescribes all the provisions in detail.
Naturally, he is forbidden to leave the place of service. And to transfer the performance of their duties to an assistant is allowed only after prior notification of higher persons. It is also forbidden to store any extraneous property at the post. And behave inappropriately. For example, do not observe elementary politeness, smoke in the wrong places, and even more so at the post itself, look sloppy, etc. In general, violating everything previously listed is prohibited. This implies the charter of the internal service of the Armed Forces and, in fact, ordinary logic. For violation will have to be punished.
The duties of other duty
Considering the provisions of the Charter, it is worth noting the attention of this topic. Since it is close to one that addresses issues related to the duties of PPC duty officers and their assistants. So briefly tell about it.
A duty officer on a battalion (or, as they say, on regiment support units) is also appointed from sergeants. Or from ensigns. And he also submits to the duty officer on the regiment.
His responsibilities are numerous. And they are practically the same as those of the company duty officer (who is appointed from the sergeants), only there are more powers. He is allowed to give the command "Smyrno", but he also has to report to his superiors about the arrival of direct officers or inspectors to the unit.
If the battalion is located separately from other regimental units, then the duty officer on it is appointed from the ensigns or officers. In this case, he will have more authority. And duties too. They are equated with those usually performed by duty on the shelf.
Actions before accepting / passing the post are almost the same for everyone. But then, during its bearing on the shoulders of the military, a great responsibility rests. A company duty officer, for example, is obliged to raise personnel in case of alarm and to notify employees on a contract basis. He also monitors the implementation of the daily routine and contributes to it. The duty officer is required to know the location of the company, as well as the number of people who are on duty and dismissals. The weapon is also under his control. In the event of sudden incidents, the company duty officer must immediately restore order, having managed to report to the superior persons. And this is just a small list of his responsibilities.
As you can see, every soldier, from the checkpoint duty officer to the one who keeps order in the company, has a very big responsibility. However, this is not surprising. After all, we are talking about military units, and everything is serious there.
