Someone in the JJ, told about how boring it was to sit on the CPC watching the perimeter, and to make a record in the journal of duty:
"20:00, came 3 change 12 people"
"20:05, went 2 shift 12 people" and so on.
This continued from year to year, until some checking polkan-checker, did not overwhelm the personnel, like - how does nothing happen? Where are the atmospheric phenomena? Why are there no traffic accidents near the protected area? And all that. Here the servants awakened the gift of observers-tellers. Everyone tried to overtake each other in describing everyday phenomena, such as:
21:08, the animal, which the replacement of Sergeant Ivanov had already observed in the area of our post on November 23, they classified it as a cat in their record. We managed to establish reliably that this is a cat that has the habit of walking through the plot entrusted to us, from the economic block to the civilian territory.
"23:01, the cat described above, returned to the territory of the part"...
Newspapers were printed 100 times faster. First, when entering service, the soldiers studied the records left by previous shifts. And tried to describe their time spent in the post as blatantly as possible, often inventing events. That is, the similarity of blogs began to be carried out in Soviet times. Judging by the story, in the company of security even existed its rating.
