Russian Army Folk Art

English Russia is a weblog that posts images and videos on, roughly speaking, daily life in Russia and other formerly-Soviet states.

As part of a continuing series on hazing in the Russian military, the anonymous author has found some stunning drawings by ‘the guy who collects stories from Russian army’ which document various forms of ill-treatment meted out to new recruits by their superiors:

Put a few lit matches between the toes and force the soldier to do a 'bicycle' thing.

All the money, goods or any other things soldier receives from home by mail he has to give to the elder soldiers.

Hit a new soldier with a stool, weighting 10-20 pounds.
