A new system of training for reconnaissance men is aimed at improvement of their combat capabilities for performing tasks in mountain.

The most important practical stage of the preparation became a tactical-and-special training in mountain. Reconnaissance men ascended the highest mountain of Ukrainian Carpathian Mountains – Hoverla and conducted march through mountain-and-wooded terrain in the course of which they practiced performing special tasks. In addition, the warriors ascended the most difficult for climbers Petros mountain.

Unindifferent philanthropists, who provided reconnaissance men with essential mountaineering equipment, joined the training.
