Beacons give SOS!

Image removed from public review package. Local review only · not public no-info · thesos.jpg A couple of days ago I contacted Kurbatov’s lighthouses. Lighthouses from the Kuril Islands (Kurbatov lighthouse) were unable to leave for the lighthouse on June 25, 2012 and are still in the city. The departure is delayed because The ship cannot pass the register. Well, everything is like in Russia. On the island, at the lighthouse, an assistant is now waiting for their return - they are bringing him cereals for the animals, a new radio station, clothes, and food. We will have to leave by helicopter approximately on July 1st. All the lighthouses are howling. It was all over. Today the unit commander had an emergency meeting. We contacted by radio. The lighthouses waiting to be transported to the island are simply experiencing a nightmare.
I refuse to understand that this is how you can treat people who are on very difficult watch in difficult conditions, and also disrupt the supply of provisions and other necessary things.
In the book “Lighthouses of Russia”, the problem of underfunding and the complexity of building lighthouses has always been in Russia, so in Russia it is an “evil tradition” that cripples the fate of lighthouses. We should have equipped lighthouses with autonomous systems for a long time now, and transfer the complexes under cultural protection. And take all this property away from the military.

Image removed from public review package. Local review only · not public no-info · thesos.jpg Пару дней назад списался с маячниками Курбатова. Маячники с Курил (маяк Курбатова) не смогли уехать на маяк 25 июня 2012 и пока еще в городе. Отход задерживается, т.к. пароход не может пройти регистр. Ну все как в России. На острове на маяке сейчас ждет их возвращения помощник - везут ему крупы для животных, новую радиостанцию, одежду, продукты. Придется улетать вертолетом ориентировочно 1 июля. Все маяки воют. Все позаканчивалось. Сегодня совещание экстренное было у командира части. Связывались по рации. Ожидающие заброски на остров маячники переживают просто кошмарно.
Я отказываюсь понимать, что так можно обращаться с людьми, несущими тяжелейшую вахту и так в сложных условиях, а еще и срывать поставки провизии и прочего необходимого.
В книге "Маяки России", что проблема недофинансирования и сложности строительства маяков была в России всегда, так что в России это "злая традиция", калечащая судьбы маячников. Давно уже Маяки следуем оснастить автономными системами, комплексы передать под охрану культуры. И забрать все это хозяйство у военных.
