The article deals with subjects of military administration based on the analysis of features of state agencies. It has been established that by using interdisciplinary analysis it is possible to disclose their main features. Attention has been drawn that each state agency has its features based on legal nature, designation, specifics and operation activities. It has been established that the main functions of the state agencies are that they are established in accordance with the procedure and on the grounds provided for by legislation; they have powers of authority which the state vest them to fulfill the functions on behalf of it; they have a certain organizational and economic independence in the structure of state apparatus and in the mechanism of the state; they have types and forms of activities, cooperation with other state agencies provided for by law; they have their place and role in the state mechanism, in other words, they have their 'legal status'; they are vested with powers of authority, competence and necessary means for fulfillment of tasks of the state when it manages certain spheres of public life. It has been confirmed that various subjects of military administration have a willful and forceful power which is more evident comparing to other types of public power (effective legislation stipulates legal liability including criminal one for failure to follow the commander's order). It has been stated that military administration which follows from provisions of legal acts is exercised not only by these bodies but by its management. Management is not included in bodies of military administration, but they are subjects of military administration with all the features. It has been proposed to use more general definition like 'subjects of military administration' which will allow to solve unsolved issues.

We have researched media texts of the anti-terrorist military action participants. There are war diaries, memoirs, blogs, publications of veterans and separately journalistic interviews with them. We used comparative, analytical, synthesis and induction method. Communicative specificity of these texts was concretized. Literary works of anti-terrorist military action participants are amateur and new for Ukrainian information space. They were built on the autobiographical basis. This kind of memoir genre is a valuable source for learning both behavior of some person in concrete conditions and sociopolitical order of some people in determined history period. The authors demonstrate their military personal experience through detailing of war events. Memoir writers explain their motivation of joining military platoons and demonstrate a strong patriotic position. Veterans recite their own history in a chronological order with adding images of comrades, commanders, technique units, tranches, weapon, elements of everyday life to their telling. Also combatants say about exploits of their fighting brothers. The prominent feature of memoirs is a contrast between front realities and civilian life. Military action participants have a colloquial style with military slang and terms. With a great sadness Ukrainian defenders describe a way of life of dead friends. But military texts have a lot of funny stories, jokes, positive notices and interesting cheerful details of communication between soldiers. The analysis of media texts allowed to find out problem zones of veterans' life. There is need for civil and professional adaptation, socialization, saving a memory about heroes. The authors try to pay attention of wide society to these problems and motivate to its solution. The results can be used in the course of the journalism specialty for the further scientific researches.

The article discusses the general provisions of the study of issues of war crimes, namely the excess by a military official of authority or official authority in modern realities. The author conducts a comparative analysis of the point of Article 426-1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine with its predecessor, explores the point of view of domestic scientists regarding the concept of the object and subject of crime, the excess of military authority or official authority by a military official. The concept of military crime is based on the definition in the Criminal Code of the general concept of crime, formulated in Part 1 of Art. 11 of the Criminal Code ("The crime is a socially dangerous act (act or omission) committed by the subject of the crime under this Code"), and is a derivative of it. In addition, it also has a number of specific features that follow from the content of Art. 401 of the Criminal Code. These characteristics are: 1) a separate and relatively independent object of these crimes (ancestral object) - the procedure established by the legislation of Ukraine for carrying on or passing military service; 2) the special subject of the crime is a serviceman, as well as a conscript during the training (or testing) or special meeting; 3) so-called "military wrongfulness" - recognition of an act of crime only if it is directly provided for by the relevant article of section XIX of the Special part of the Criminal Code and at the same time related to violation of the rules of the law governing the order of military service or the rules of co-operation in military collectives. With regard to the notion of exceeding a military official or authority, it is necessary to identify features that are specific to the concepts that characterize general offenses. The object of the crime of excess by a military official or authority in the form of non-statutory methods of influence is the honor and dignity of the subordinate, and in the use of violence against the subordinate - life, health, will, honor and dignity of ...

The professional health of a serviceman is the absence of diseases in the presence of a certain level of compensatory and protective mechanisms that ensure high combat effectiveness in the conditions of his professional activity. That is why the most important component of the national security system of our country is the protection and strengthening of the health of military personnel. In recent years, armed conflict has continued in the east of Ukraine. Therefore, today's urgent task is to study the features of comorbid diseases that may be primary to modern combat trauma in military personnel participating in the anti-terrorist operation / Joint Forces Operation (ATO / JFO). Comorbid diseases have a negative impact on the course of modern combat trauma, as well as combat trauma has a negative impact on the course of these diseases. The objective: to analyze the frequency of comorbid diseases in military personnel – participants in the ATO / JFO, depending on the presence of a closed craniocerebral injury (CTBI). Materials and methods. The study was performed in the Ukrainian Military Medical Academy based on the National Military Medical Clinical Center "Main Military Clinical Hospital" where 183 servicemen – participants of the ATO / JFO with arterial hypertension (AH) were examined. Patients were divided into two statistically homogeneous groups according to age: group I – 127 people who, while participating in the ATO / JFO, did not receive CTBI, group II – 56 people with such injury. Statistical analysis of the results was done by use of the standard statistical package STATISTICA 10.0 for Windows from StatSofr Inc. (USA) using parametric statistical methods. Results. In military personnel participating in the ATO/JFO, there was no correlation between the severity of hypertension and the presence of a cranio-cerebral injury. At the same time, in subjects with CTBI, there was an increase in the frequency of comorbid diseases of the nervous system and diseases of the ear and mammillary process and a ...

The article researches the features of military administration in administrative legal aspect taking into account the features of public administration. First of all, it relates to the following features: organizational activity which results in administration relations; existence of the subject of public administration who has authoritative powers to exercise public administration in the structure of these relations (to have these relations not only subjects but an object who is influenced by the subject of administration should participate); relations of power between the subject and object of administration when only the state body which is the subject of administration has the power and the objects should fulfill orders of the subject; the state authoritative organizational activity when the laws should be followed and this activity is considered as regulatory based on effective legislation; public administration is exercised only within effective legislation; legal liability for violation of legislation. First, specific feature of military administration is its two levels when there are bodies of military administration and military command. Second, specific feature of military administration is its crisis orientation when under ordinary circumstances objects of such administration are servicemen, military base, military formations which means that it has a clear regulatory and internal organizational character. At the same time, during martial law, emergency or other situation provided for by legislation the sphere of military administration can increase and include objects out of the Armed Forces. Third, military administration is represented by administration exercised by a single person. Fourth, organizational unity has a significant meaning for military administration. Fifth, military discipline ensures a high level of procedural administrative relations, but majority of procedural norms are isolated and not represented by proceedings.

Military-technical partnership is defined as the amalgamation of responsibilities of delegated governmental bodies, structures, organizations and companies connected with development, production, trade or procurement of military equipment, including planning, coordination, organization and conduct of military equipment and services exchange.It has been identified that military-technical cooperation encompasses two main types of international military partnership, namely: the transfers of armament, military equipment and dual-purpose technology, as well as the provision of military-technical services, joint scientific research and design activities, production, marketing and trading of armament samples. The article describes how the military-technical cooperation improves the ties with partner-nations in the field of joint design, production and modernization of armament, military and other equipment, facilitates the development of export and import of military products, as well as the engagement of military assistance in regards to disposition of obsolete armament, ammunition and rocket propellant. The article analyses the main factors of activization and the general capabilities that define the military-technical partnership development. It has been noted that at the same time, countries are pursuing their military-technical cooperation and economic goals. Therefore, the article focuses mainly on the current issues of the defense industry development, that are quite difficult to deal with outside of the international military-technical cooperation field. The main types of interstate frameworks of military-technical cooperation in design and production of hi-tech weapon systems were identified. The factors that determine the success of military-technical cooperation policy and the main upto-date tendencies were defined. It was concluded that the military-technical cooperation strengthens the state's international stance, decreases the expenses for the production and design of new armament and equipment samples, and allows the states to not only receive the cutting-edge designs, needed for the development of the defense industry, but also to increase the profits. ; Військово-технічне партнерство визначається як діяльність уповноважених на те органів державної влади, установ, організацій і підприємств, пов'язану з розробкою, виробництвом, реалізацією або закупівлею продукції військового призначення, а також – з плануванням, координацією, організацією і здійсненням міжнародного обміну продукцією та послугами військового призначення.Виявлено, що військово-технічного співробітництва об'єднує два основних типи відносин міжнародного військового партнерства: трансферти озброєння та військової техніки, технологій подвійного використання, а також надання послуг військово-технічного характеру та спільні науково-дослідні та дослідно-конструкторські роботи, виробництво, маркетинг, продаж зразків озброєння. Зазначається, що військово-технічне співробітництво поглиблює кооперацію з країнамипартнерами у галузі спільної розробки, виробництва та модернізації озброєння, військової й іншої техніки, сприяє розвитку експорту та імпорту товарів військового призначення, а також залученню міжнародної допомоги щодо утилізації застарілого озброєння, боєприпасів, ракетного палива. Проаналізовані причини, основні чинники активізації та загальні можливості розвитку військово-технічного партнерства. Зазначається, що водночас країни переслідують у своєму військово-технічному співробітництві й економічні цілі. У зв'язку з цим акцентується увага на актуальних проблемах розвитку оборонної сфери на сучасному етапі розвитку людства, які украй складно вирішити поза сферою міжнародного військово-технічного співробітництва. З'ясовано основні форми в яких здійснюється військово-технічне співробітництво держав із розробки та виробництва високотехнологічних систем озброєнь. Визначені заходи, що визначають успішність політики військово-технічного співробітництва та основні тенденції які нині спостерігаються. Робиться висновок, що завдяки військово-технічному співробітництву держави зміцнюють свої позиції на міжнародній арені, зменшують бюджетне навантаження при створенні нових зразків озброєння та військової техніки, одержують як передові технології, необхідні для розвитку оборонно-промислової галузі, так і високі прибутки.
