Border security, according to Rasul Gamzatov, is a 24-hour concept. Border guards are always at work, other combat duty is not inferior to a fight in a serious battle - they are always on duty, on the front line. And border guards must feel every minute how important and necessary their work is for the country they protect, and it doesn’t matter at all where they serve - in the cold Barents Sea, like the crew of the Troy patrol boat, or in the very east of Russia, like Lieutenant Alexander Koryakov. The main thing for them is the willingness to fulfill their duty... A new book by a recognized master of Russian action-packed prose.
