The 1st Army Brigade conducts complex training on a daily basis with the aim of developing and improving operational capabilities and achieving the necessary availability of forces to conduct operations and provide assistance to civilian authorities.
Minister of Defence Aleksandar Vulin visited the units of the 1st Army Brigade in the “Boško Palkovljević” barracks in Sremska Mitrovica today.
During the visit, Minister Vulin attended the presentation of training of 15th Tank Battalion and the 13th Self-Propelled Multiple Rocket Launcher Artillery Battalion and he also visited the vehicle park, and the Memorial Room of the Sremska Mitrovica garrison.
Minister Vulin emphasized that members of the 1st Army Brigade proved their worth many times.
— They competed in the military biathlon in the Russian Federation, they showed their capability of handling multiple rocket launchers and the readiness of their tank crews at the exercise “Joint Action 2020”, but more than anything, they proved their worth and their love of their homeland during the first wave of the coronavirus. The 1st Brigade suffered the heaviest blow and was on the frontline of defence. Thanks to their perseverance, work, enthusiasm, patience and courage, hundreds of our citizens who arrived from abroad, and later thousands of them, were received, taken care of and protected at that time — emphasized Minister Vulin.
According to him, the 1st Brigade made an enormous contribution to the fight against Covid at that time, and our country and our people will not and must not forget that.
