Story: graduated from the military department and received the military rank of reserve lieutenant in 2012, at the beginning of 2013 he received a military registration card as a reserve officer at the military registration and enlistment office. I have an excellent reference from the military department; all exams during my studies and graduation were passed with excellent marks.When I was at the military registration and enlistment office, I asked the head of the department for registering reserve officers (I don’t remember exactly what this department is called), then - lieutenant colonel, will I be awarded the military rank of “senior lieutenant” 3 years after being awarded the military rank of “lieutenant”. I referred to Article 24 of the Regulations on the Procedure for Military Service ( Article 24. Duration of tenure in military ranks, the rights of officials to assign military ranks and the procedure for assigning military ranks to citizens in reserve):
3. Time limits are established for being in the reserve in the following military ranks:
…
h) senior lieutenant - three years;7. The next military rank can be assigned to a citizen who is in the reserves of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation:
a) up to and including senior lieutenant - with positive certification;And also the fact that my father, also a reserve officer, was awarded the military rank of “senior lieutenant” in the late 80s, 3 years after being awarded the rank of “lieutenant” and without going through training.
The lieutenant colonel replied that without going through military training at this moment Reserve officers are not assigned successive ranks. Hence the first question - is it true that 1. the assignment of the next rank to reserve officers, including the rank of “senior lieutenant”, is carried out only after passing training?
Next, I asked him about military training, and he answered me that even after passing the training, a rank is assigned only if I receive a positive motivated description from the head of the training camp and indicate that I am worthy of being awarded the next military rank. It is unclear how well the leadership can evaluate the military training of officers who undergo them in 2-3 weeks and make positive decision. In this regard, the question arises: 2. How difficult is it to get a positive reference with a referral for assignment to the next military rank during training? What is the proportion of citizens who receive a positive description? What is the practice on this issue?
Now I am a master's student and therefore exempt from fees. But in the summer I will have time, and I am ready to go to the training camp. 3. Is it possible to go to the training camp while being a student (that is, as if forgetting about it and not telling the military registration and enlistment office). If this turns out to be the case at the State Administration of the Moscow Region, could this have negative consequences in the form of a refusal to assign the next rank?
There are also additional restrictions on attending training camps: for example, citizens cannot be called up for them more than once every 3 years. 4. Is it possible own wishes violate them, that is, come to the military registration and enlistment office and ask for training, even if less than 3 years have passed since the previous ones?
In order to receive the next rank, training must be completed in a position for which, according to the staffing schedule, the desired rank is required. The lieutenant colonel assured me that it would be easy to get the rank of “senior lieutenant” in this way, but later on it might be more difficult with positions. 5. What are the practical limits to military rank growth for reserve officers? Is it possible in practice to achieve the ranks of “major”, “lieutenant colonel” and “colonel” in this way?
I ask you to be as careful as possible when answering practices and practical opportunities, because I have already independently studied the regulatory legal acts on this issue quite well and can almost work as a lawyer in this specialization. :) Thank you all in advance for your answers!
Added after 17 minutes
Yes, in addition to question 2. Is it difficult to pass tests and exams at training camps at the level that would be enough to be awarded the next title?
The State Duma adopted in the first reading a bill allowing reserve officers to receive regular military ranks without restrictions. According to the bill, citizens in the reserve of the RF Armed Forces will be able to receive not two, as now, but six or more regular military ranks. Thus, according to one of the authors of the document, First Deputy Chairman of the Duma Defense Committee Alexey Sigutkin, while in the reserve, it will be possible to go from lieutenant to colonel and higher.
Let us remind you that according to the current legislation (the Law of the Russian Federation “On Military Duty and Military Service”), regular military ranks can be assigned to citizens in the reserves, only no more than two times. At the same time, a soldier, sailor, sergeant, foreman, warrant officer and midshipman could rise to the rank of foreman, chief naval foreman, including military commissar; or up to senior warrant officer, senior midshipman inclusive, military commissar of a constituent entity of the Russian Federation. Officers - up to major, captain of the 3rd rank inclusive - commander of the troops of the military district; or up to colonel, captain 1st rank inclusive - by the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation.
The document that deputies are considering also proposes another innovation - to allow the granting of regular military ranks in the reserve, even if the candidate for promotion has not passed military training. True, as the developers note, this is possible if the education, qualifications and work experience of a citizen in the reserve meet the requirements for candidates for filling a military position provided for by wartime states.
Where are reserve officers trained?
The main source of accumulation of reserve officers is military departments. Military classrooms appeared in Russia in 1926, when, by decision of the Soviet government, pre-conscription training was introduced at civilian universities and technical schools for the training of command and engineering personnel. Experience showed that military offices converted into departments could produce mid-level reserve commanders, and in 1930 higher non-military training was introduced. In 1937-1939, the nature of training at military departments changed again - they switched to training single fighters.
During the Great Patriotic War all activities of military departments were subordinated to the requirement for universal compulsory military training; they became training centers for regional military commissariats. In 1944, military departments again began training reserve officers.
By 1990, there were 441 educational institutions in the Soviet Union that trained reserve officers. During the collapse of the USSR, in a number of universities and in all secondary specialized educational institutions military training students was terminated. By 2008-2009, it is planned to leave military departments only in 30-35 civilian universities in Russia.
You are a reserve officer if:
-
you signed a contract for the training program for reserve officers, graduated from the military department at a university, completed military training camps, successfully graduated from the university itself, and you were awarded the rank of officer;
- you have been demobilized from the armed forces with the rank of officer.
After graduating from a military department and university, you are usually awarded the rank of officer. Reserve officers are called up to serve in the army for a period of 2 years.

Military ranks in the army occupy a very important place; thanks to this division, subordination is maintained between military personnel. According to ranks, a serviceman has more powers and opportunities. There is a regulated procedure for assigning military ranks, compliance with which is mandatory.
How are ranks assigned in the army?
There are two groups of ranks in the Russian Army: ship ranks and ranks related to general troops. The procedure for assigning regular military ranks to combined arms military personnel applies to military personnel serving in the ground forces and other military units. The ranks of the ship are military personnel serving in the Navy.
When serving in guard units or as part of the navy, military rank has the prefix “guard.” For military medical services or those associated with justice, the prefixes “med. services" and "justice". In addition, the assigned ranks remain with the serviceman for life. Even after receiving a well-deserved retirement. In this case, the addition “retired” is assigned.
The basis for conferring a military rank in the Russian Army is:
- Conscription into the ranks of the RF Armed Forces for military service or under a contract.
- Receipt military specialty after graduating from a secondary military educational institution or academy.
- The deadline for obtaining the right to the next increase has arrived.
- Early promotion.
- Obtaining a position that requires you to have the required rank.
- Passing tests in which there is a possibility of obtaining a promotion.
What are the assignment deadlines?
All available ranks in the Russian Army are divided into three large groups, which differ in the rules for their assignment.
The main groups of military personnel include:
- rank and file;
- NCOs and petty officers;
- officer corps.
To make the next promotion, there are certain deadlines for assigning military ranks, these periods are very strictly observed, the only exception may be receiving a promotion ahead of schedule, for certain reasons. Advancement through each successive step in a military career has its own period specified in the documents.
The minimum period required for promotion of rank and file, in this case it is 5 months. Other groups of military personnel are assigned successive promotions, according to regulatory documents, but they are already counted for years. The longest waiting period for the next military rank for a colonel is 5 years.
The procedure for assigning the next military rank depends not only on the time spent by the serviceman in the ranks of the armed forces of the Russian Army, but also on the specific position according to which the military rank can be assigned. A military man can be a warrant officer for the entire service and then resign if he does not move to another position and does not have the appropriate education.
After passing such fees, a certification commission is held. By decision of the commission, the next promotion is awarded. To do this you need to show yourself best side and have good physical fitness.
Deprivation of rank in the army
The Russian army uses a system of rewards and punishments. In addition to assigning a rank to reward personnel for service, they can also apply a penalty of deprivation of military rank.
