At the military unit, over 100 young men, conscripted from Vitebsk, Mogilev, and Minsk regions, studied tracking, general military regulations, the material part of small arms, underwent drill training, acquired hand-to-hand combat skills, and learned to conduct military reconnaissance.

After the first part of the oath-taking ceremony, demonstration performances were held. Border guards demonstrated their skills in drill training, hand-to-hand combat techniques, elements of detaining border violators using a service dog, and the detention of a violator by special unit officers.
