What's the Russian equivalent of a MOS

What is that?
Gives squad a +5 Holy damage.
He’s just a Russian army chaplain you autists
Looks like a standard chaplain to me. Hardly unique. We had them in Iraq and Afghanistan. Usually accompanied by their enlisted tag along who was armed.
Beat me to it
Also heals the tank.
We have paratroop trained priests, also air droppable mini churches
Another Russian combat priest. He also a PKP gunner
Wololo
Mobile churches on Kamaz truck?
Battlefield Chaplains have been around...since forever. In medieval battlefields you need to get your ass buried and prayed over by a priest.
kek
Best MOS
Looks like a 56A to me
Do they hand out healing candy?
>Pic is Russian combat Orthodox priest in Syria
my opinion is that the Russian orthodox church is an arm of the Russian state and an abomination
Do you think she's be one of those army grills who'd let you fuck her over the altar of the field chapel? Probably
You shut the fuck up. Orthodoxy predates Russia.
>Orthodoxy predates Russia.
And your point is?
their priests actually like guns, weapons and military. they're pretty much completely opposite from catholic/protestant beta faggots (that last part, quite literally).
Yes. Same dude in OP.
what kind of protestants do you hang out with most I know love guns and are huge fans of the 2 amendment.
I said priests, not parishioners.
>my opinion is that the Russian orthodox church is an arm of the Russian state and an abomination
But that's basically any heretic church. They are lapdogs of mortal kings - like church of england. Or straight up jewish invention - see martin luder. Or pant on heads retarded - new age and mormons.
>Catholics
GTFO filthy papist
Dude needs to dx that faded ass camo, and get rid of that bowling ball, time now
THIS is why Russians are OP. So much ducken Russian bias because all of the angels and freaking warrior cherubims on their side.
Fix Your teeth.
Warrior priests are actually a big part of Russian heritage. They were solidly allowed to kill.
Check out Peresvet in the Battle of Kulikovo
>Filthy papist
Only when you stop being a heretic
Not everyone with a crucifix is a priest you moron
>Only when you stop being a heretic
catholicism is nothing more than worship of Mary. it's fucking idolatry.
not to mention that EVERY SINGLE EUROPEAN CATHOLIC COUNTRY has been now conquered by muslim/black migrants (with the exception of few slavnigger ones but that's just the matter of time). and your piece of shit commie Pope is calling for more of them.

Chaplains are some of the coolest people you'll meet. Downrange the Chaplain we had every once in a while, about once every two months, was cool as shit and really easygoing even on patrol.
Can You fuck off to worship Virgin Queen Elizabeth?
How exactly does this work?
i understand the western perspective, religious leaders fall under a seperate geneva conventions category and are exempt from certain POW practices if captured, but if they are a combatant, does that mean they are no longer treated as religious leaders under international law if they are captured in battle?
it seems like they are are just ultra religious combatants imo, as actual full time "chaplains" have protected status
>Not everyone with a crucifix is a priest you moron
>implying the pope is the real pope
>implying Southern Germany, Poland, Italy, Southern France, Iberia and Hungary aren’t one of the least cucked regions in Europe
There were many anti popes in history.
>Combat Priest
Sounds cooler than it actually is.
Russian Priest uniform
lmao
>Russian state
State is not the same thing as government. It's part of the Russian state, not the government.
Are these recent? It seemed like Russia was trying to modernise and have uniform consistency. Moving away from the 90s-00s army where every dude was wearing 5 different camouflage patterns. They just can't break their old habits. Thats like the 3rd or 4th pattern they've developed for Syria.
OP pic was took in 20-4-2018 in Syria
> Although Odo was an ordained Christian cleric, he is best known as a warrior and statesman. He found ships for the Norman invasion of England and is one of the very few proven companions of William the Conqueror, known to have fought at the Battle of Hastings in 1066.
> The Latin annotation embroidered onto the Tapestry above his image reads: "Hic Odo Eps [Episcopus] Baculu[m] Tenens Confortat Pueros", in English "Here Odo the Bishop holding a club strengthens the boys".
>implying the pope is the real pope
Brother Marcin, hand me the torch.
Onna more serious note; a lot of catholic splinter groups used to serve as convoyeur belt of cheap workforce. Starting with the Cathars slaved at the looms for Holy Roman Empire, to total brain drain of former ComBloc.
Fuck, the Anglos used to sell Irish kids as late as XIX century under the banner of charity.
But I am getting carried off topic.
You don't tell me nigga. Head of Moscow Patriarchate was registered at KGB as a talented snitch. Since the purges of thirties the ROC sleeps in one bed with any cremlin cockgoblin.
>What is your opinion on Combat Priest?
Honestly, a pretty good class for a beginner. Start with proficiency in ranged weapons and also start with a team buff ability from the get go.
Thanks, yeah that does seem to be the most common pattern in the most recent media
there also this

>the Coptic Church was established by Saint Mark, an apostle and evangelist, in the middle of the 1st century (approximately AD 42)

I haven't been keeping up, I assumed they all still looked like this. Or their SF guys with knock-off multicam.
That uniform was used by PJ/Air rescue and Sapper.
Seen like they start issued new digital camo this year.
I guess Greek Orthodoxy is cool, too.
However any church thar do not enforce celibacy will eventually turn into small family business.
Their being unarmed makes them useless faggots
And holy trips!
Protestant here! Have you been to Huntsville, AL?
Is that porn? It looks like porn.
Nice tits
Not really since the priests don't own the church
Annas & Caiaphas used to basically run Temple of Jerusalem. Also: Mormons, Jehovah Witnesses and many other sectarian are slaving themselves for the leader.
You think he can convert enemy combatants?
>Warrior priests
>cia priest
The right way to deal with lutheran heretics.
no
yes
>not having your gun blessed by a priest
As an Orthodox Christian myself this seems really sketchy. Priests CANNOT fight wars. If he kills someone, a priest is immediately defrocked and can never be a clergyman again. I've even heard of a priest being defrocked because of a fatal car accident caused by his negligence.
There's something way off here.
Also known as a priest
They are Chaplains, they don't do any actual fighting. They are there for moral support basically. All the pictures of them holding and blessing guns is just propaganda and to a lesser extent, a pick me up feel good move for the more spiritual Russians.
>not to mention that EVERY SINGLE EUROPEAN CATHOLIC COUNTRY has been now conquered by muslim/black migrants
how are you any different amerimutt? honest question
Not him but:
There’s nothing worth saving after the black chappies got to integrate and the Mexicans started hopping in full force
Europe was the last bastion for the white race - seems like that might change in the future

>Or straight up jewish invention - see martin luder.
Are you actually retarded?
And this...
Mormon clergy aren't paid.
tips
It isn't a weapon. That's my opinion. MODS!
They do seem more of that super spiritual guy in the platoon you can talk to when bummed than an actual ordained priest.
Damn beat me to it
Now Brad's pissed off God
Orthodoxy is the only Christian denomination that is fundamentally anti- ((onions))
I'm atheist but I believe chaplains should be able to fight or have a combat role if they want to. I literally cannot find a downside to it.
It degrades their "objectivity" - when they partake in the "sins" of war on behalf of one side they have less legitimacy in their counsel. Especially considering, as many people tend to forget, that it is often the chaplains responsibility to perform last rites for the wounded dying enemy, when possible.
>combat clerics have a special ability "Last Rites" that guarantees paradise for Christians and ensures heathens are sent to purgatory.
Orthodoxy predates the Bible, friend. There is no purgatory. If they are lucky enough to meet with a priest and accept Christ before the hour of their death then they can be saved.
literally a modern day crusader
>the face you make when your wife tells you she converted to Islam
Warhammer 40K Chaplain... the beginning.
If your chaplains don't look like this, then you have failed.
Wolololooooo!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH mulatto woman touching the holy cross like its some object of pleasure. DISGUSTING.
THIS DESU
Why does this guy look so much like sam hyde?
They don't participate in combat. They are pretty much just here for meme reasons and morale. It's like a random journalist with armour because he is in middle of a war zone.
