Everything about The Suvorov Military School totally explained
The
Suvorov Military Schools are a type of Russian school for boys of 14-17. Education in such a school focuses on military related subjects.
A unique kind of Russian military schools for teenagers is the
Nakhimov Naval School in
St. Petersburg.
This type of schools was created in the
USSR during the
Great Patriotic War in December, 1943 to give male children of school age with
secondary education specializing in military (Army, Navy, Intelligence, etc.) subjects and training.
A number of Suvorov/Nakhimov Military Schools still exist in the CIS countries (including the Republic of Belarus). The Suvorov schools are now subordinate to the Commander-in-Chief of the
Russian Ground Forces.
Carey Schofield, a British journalist with close links to the
Soviet Armed Forces, wrote in 1990-91 that '..it is still generally accepted that the best way for an officer to start his career is to attend one of the very smart Suvorov or Nakhimov schools, the military boarding schools.' She noted that at that time, several of the original schools had closed, leaving eight Suvarov schools and a single Nakhimov school across the whole of the Soviet Union.
Scott and Scott, in the
Russian Military Directory 2004, listed Suvarov schools active at the time in
Yekaterinburg,
Kazan,
Moscow,
St.Petersburg,
Vladikavkaz,
Tver,
Ulyanovsk, and
Ussuriysk. Several Cadet Corps, a number of them recently formed, were also listed, each affiliated to a specific service branch such as the Space Troops, the Chief of Construction and Billeting, and the Signals Troops.
