"They trained us for five days, we waited for another five days for a force rotation and then we went to [combat] positions," Ivan said, noting that recruits carried out some informal training exercises in that time, including combat skills, seizing and storming buildings, all-around defense, working in combat teams, field medicine, evacuation and treatment of wounded soldiers.
