The tasks and daily activities of the army unit in Lithuania and France differ significantly. The French Foreign Legion has a very long and strict tradition, still followed. I feel a big difference in exercise., which I did there and I do here. If the Lithuanian army is preparing more for defensive battles, then in France, first of all, they think about the offensive, about attacks, including battles with a "non-standard" enemy.

The soldier stated, that he now serves in the reconnaissance company of the mechanized infantry brigade "Iron Wolf", he has "the skills to survive in difficult conditions, deep knowledge of topography, ability to orientate well in the terrain ".

Karolis Tendziagolskis:

I plan to get a non-commissioned officer rank and share my knowledge and skills with Lithuanian soldiers. First of all, you must not be afraid to pay your debt to Lithuania.
This interview has clear propaganda overtones., since recently in Lithuania, after restoring the summoning system, there is a decline in the number of those wishing to serve in the Lithuanian army. Many are simply afraid to join the army and end up signing a contract., as the Lithuanian military continues to be used in NATO operations far beyond the borders of Lithuania itself – from Africa to Iraq and Afghanistan.
