Border guards celebrated their holiday in the capital with traditional bathing in fountains

About two thousand former border guards of different ages gathered on May 28 on their professional holiday in the metropolitan park named after Gorky. According to the Moscow Central Internal Affairs Directorate, without traditional bathing in the fountains, there were no serious incidents yet, the Radio station "Echo of Moscow" reports.

Near the central fountain "Green caps" arranged an impromptu parade ground where they march under military songs. Many swim in the fountain. Police officers are trying to treat idle loyally. At the same time, alcohol was forbidden to bring to the park: bags and bags are inspected at the entrance.

People in green caps celebrate their holiday not only in Gorky Park, but also on Poklonnaya Gora, as well as at VDNH. “Border guards are a shield of the homeland, and the rest of the troops are screws screwed into this shield,” this saying can most often be heard from many celebrating.

The security of the day of the border guard in the capital on Monday ensures a total of almost four thousand police officers.
