Training of Special Operations Battalion the “Griffins”
Members of Special Operations Battalion the “Griffins” from the 72nd Special Operations Brigade are having conditioning for the execution of assigned tasks.
It is an advanced training for the special units in summer conditions that involves climbing, diving and autonomous provision of food, which maintain and enhance capabilities for the execution of tasks in all terrain and climate conditions.
The climbing training helps the units to master mountain climbing techniques, crossing water obstacles and rescuing the injured in terrains that are difficult to pass.
The training in diving implies practicing the execution of tasks under water at depths up to 40 metres, while the autonomous provision of food in the nature prepares the “Griffins” to survive in conditions in which the provision of food is either difficult or impossible.
A great number of complex tasks and diversity of activities performed by the 72nd Special Operations Brigade, demand from its members to maintain a high level of physical fitness and mental strength, which is the reason why the unit daily conducts intensive training aimed at maintaining and enhancing its capabilities for the execution of special operations and activities in all terrain, climate and combat conditions.
