Young men and their parents are very interested in the results of passing the medical commission when registering, when the young man reaches 17 years of age. It establishes the category of fitness for military service. The commission draws conclusions based on the health status of the draftee. An interesting fact is that if a young man is fit, he is prescribed military service in certain parts of the Russian army. So with what category are they taking into what troops?
Good for
The commission may exempt a young man from military service. Everything will depend on which category it will be assigned to. There are five of them. They call those who fall into categories A and B. This means that they are fit for military service. The fitness category A 1 and A 2 means that there are no restrictions for the future soldier. Shelf life category B - Shelf life with minor restrictions. It is divided into B1, B2, as well as B3 and B4.
Where to send
A1 - the young man is healthy now and has not previously suffered serious illnesses. This can be taken to the marines, airborne and assault airborne units, if it is suitable for physical parameters, and for this it should be growth from 1.7 to 1.85, have good eyesight and hearing, be fit and not suffer obese. A2 - the young man is currently healthy, but previously had injuries or serious illnesses. These are taken to submarines and ships. But only those who grow to 1.82-1.85 have excellent eyesight, hearing and no obesity or dystrophy. Those who possess the same data, but with a shorter height (up to 1.75) will be taken into tankers, artillerymen or engineering vehicles.
Other options
What troops are taking with category B1? This is the Airborne Forces, the Marines, the border service or special forces. B2 - gunners, tankers, submariners. B3 - service at anti-aircraft missile systems, in the internal troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, at gas stations and storage facilities for fuels and lubricants, in chemical and guard units. In addition, the eligibility assigned to this group can be drivers, as well as crew members of infantry fighting vehicles, missile launchers, and also serve in the Strategic Missile Forces. And what troops are taken with the category B4? There are few options. Such a soldier will guard either special facilities or missile systems.
Limitations
The question with which category they are assigned to may not concern the person who was assigned to group B. This means that he will not be called up, but he will be enlisted in the armed forces and will be issued a military ID. If war breaks out in the country, he will nevertheless be called up for service. Until 2005, a second medical examination was required, and this requirement has now been canceled. The diseases that "help" get this category include incurable or intractable parasitic or infectious diseases, tuberculosis, malignant and benign formations, mycoses, candidiasis, disorders in the glands, mental disorders, central nervous system disorders, severe eye and ear diseases, vascular and heart disease, enuresis, low weight, height up to 150 cm, as well as other serious diseases of certain organs and internal systems.
Still have to serve
But the one who got into group G, will certainly want to find out with which category which troops are taken. After all, he was only given a deferment for a period of 6 to 12 months. During this time, the conscript must improve his health, recover from illness or injury. This means that his diseases at the time of the call are in the acute stage, but a remission is expected, or he underwent surgery and is undergoing rehabilitation. Delay is also given for immune system disorders, infectious or parasitic diseases.
White ticket
But the one who is on the lists under the letter D. can say goodbye to the service forever. He is exempted from military duty. But, unfortunately, this means that he has a serious illness, and also that in civil life it will be difficult for him to obtain rights, a permit for weapons, to get some types of work, suggesting that a person should have served in the army.
List of diseases
If the conscript is sure that he will be found unfit for military service absolutely or with restrictions, he can seize documents from the medical commission testifying to the presence of any disease. It is possible that doctors who know well the categories of suitability and the schedule of diseases will save the young man from an additional examination. But in some cases, if the documents are not enough, it may be needed. In order to find out in advance to which fitness category a young man can be assigned, or whether he will be released from military service, he can independently study the schedule of diseases. This is a document in which all diseases are posted by article. It is very detailed and has comments. It is on it that the doctors from the selection committee are guided. It also indicates body mass indices with which they are called up or refused military service. It is also necessary to independently study the schedule so that the recruiting office does not violate the rights of the conscript, and he can defend his point of view, relying on the document.

The category that was assigned after the initial military registration could be changed after a medical examination at the age of 18, so the question of which category the troops are assigned to will remain relevant. The situation in our country is such that young people prefer to "slope" from the army. Therefore, some of them are even happy with the diseases found in them. But we must remember that they will not have to serve long, and the disease worsens the quality of life for years or even forever. Here everyone can decide for himself what he likes best.
