The tradition of celebrating the Day of Frontier Guard goes far in 1918, when the Main Directorate of the Border Service was established. The tranquility of our borders is the merit of men, who have a tremendous responsibility. It is hard work from day to day and a constant danger to life. Therefore, it is also customary to celebrate the holiday in order to raise the fighting spirit of the soldiers and demonstrate the full strength and power of the border troops.
And so, the closer the day of the twenty-eighth of May - the Day of the Border Guard, the more confused we come because of ignorance of what to give to a close man who is on guard of the Motherland.
What is the best day for the border guards?
To begin with, do not forget that the border guard is the same man as the civilian representatives of this sex. He has his own taste and preferences, which must be taken into account. But do not forget that on professional holidays it is better to stick to the main theme. And this means, it is desirable that the gift on the day of the border guard included the military component in the design.
Of course, as without a festive table! In addition to the main dishes, dessert will look great in the form of a cake decorated with a tank or Kalashnikov assault rifle. Well, if there are colors of a military nature.
But what will you hand to your husband, brother or father when the moment of gift comes? Before you buy something, remember what your man said. What memories of the service most often take place during a conversation with friends?
In the frontier troops are not only people, but also our friends - dogs. Does your man often remember about sheepdogs ? Listen to the warmth with which he responds to them. Maybe you should give him a little puppy. Suddenly, all these frequent conversations were hints that your family lacks this animal? A dog can please an adult man no less than a small child.
Gifts for military men
Many think, gifts for military men should be necessarily military subjects. Well, then you have at your disposal a variety of clothes - it's a T-shirt with a print, displaying military life, shirts, and even trousers that a man can use for fishing trips with friends. In the latter case, you can give him a whole set - in addition to trousers to pick up fishing tackle, folding knife and thermos.
In the gift shops you will see a wide range of cool little things.
The original gift for the day of the border guard is a bottle of good cognac in a package disguised as a border pillar. Why not? A nice surprise will be a multifunctional watch engraved on the back of the coat of arms and symbols of the kind of troops. This kind of watch will suit a precision-loving officer.
But do not rely solely on offers in stores of finished goods. You can try to come up with your own design and implement it yourself. For example, already mentioned alcohol can be presented in a completely original way. You can order a sticker on a bottle with a photograph of a man close to you, imagine his surprise!
Do not particularly focus on military topics, listen to the man, guess his wishes. Give the border guard what he most dreams about - and you will not go wrong.
