The first woman diver - a Soviet Nina Sokolova. She was mounting a gas line at the bottom of the lake. During World War II.

Too bad the USSR & it’s amazing feats of military heroism are a thing of the past. The Soviet Union was a real threat to the one & only super power but now the poorly equipped & even more poorly trained Chinese military is still not taken as seriously as Soviets at their height of power but they are equal 2nd rate powers that do threaten US but considering neither has the special operation forces that the US, & many of their small allies have (with the exception of a few thousand SOF

@@kyriedacrybaby1938 This is explained simply. The modern Russian army protects the interests of only a handful of oligarchs and its heroes (and they still exist) die without realizing it at all. For whom did the Soviet Army fight and die? For his nation and the right to decide independently how to exist for the Soviet Union. I will mention the modern Russian National Guard. During the dispersal of the demonstration held against Putin, one of the policemen (in fact, this is the police service) of the Guard threw a shield and a baton on the ground and explained this by taking an oath to defend his nation, and not to tell her how to live, and even more so not to beat her with a baton. News about this true patriot was not shown on television, owned by Russian oligarchs. And he must have been severely punished. (By the way, policemen of the Soviet Union sometimes went without weapons, and batons were seen only in educational films. For the first time, batons in the hands of policemen appeared during the collapse of the USSR, during the dispersal of nationalist and openly fascist demonstrators.)

I heard that she was given slack, I bet she wouldn't have passed the baby divers course of old when it was a 75% failure rate!

Being an x CD myself through the entire 1980's No women could have passed this course as most men couldn't due to the physical demands of lifting all the heavy equipment not to mentioned all the other hardships endured. The Navy reservist did this some years ago back in the late 80/90 again all show! no go! Get real some jobs as for men aren't for women. Also I note she is an officer which again being a LMCDO course isn't as hard as the baby divers course. PS in the comment in the video the guy say we had to get her through the physical before she started. Guys in my day where shown the door period there was no second chance!tells me everything I need to know about the decline of my branch. I guess we cant say "no muff to tuff we dive at 5" anymore either as not PC.
