The relevance of the study is associated with the formation of a complex of stress factors of the environment in relation to graduates of higher military educational institutions and lies in the need for a systematic solution to the problem of adaptation of medical officers to professional activities in the Arctic. The aim of the study is to develop promising directions for the prevention of diseases and increase the efficiency of medical officers on the basis of a systematic study of medical-geographical, military-professional and socio-psychological factors in the formation of stable adaptation in graduates of higher military educational institutions. An original questionnaire Adaptation has been developed, which allows assessing the impact of the complex impact of stress factors. A systematic approach has been applied to assess the contribution of medical-geographical, professional factors, as well as lifestyle. Based on the results of the regression analysis, prognostic models of the influence of factors on the psychophysiological indicators of health, as well as correlations between the three groups of factors and the adaptive capabilities of the organism of military personnel, were obtained. It is concluded that the adaptation of military personnel in the Arctic is more intense in comparison with the redeployment in the subtropics and temperate latitudes. Ensuring high performance of young officers requires the planning and implementation of preventive measures based on monitoring the medical and geographical situation, preliminary adaptation to upcoming service activities, the development of infrastructure for everyday life and recreation of the families of military personnel, scientific support for the problem of redeployment of troops, including the adaptation of young officers.

Social Role and Peculiar Features of Military Veterans Social Organizations in the Political Space of the Russian Federation . .

The study of the problem of the formation of the Russian civil society is accompanied both in practical and theoretical terms by a whole complex of contradictions and complexities that originate in the ambiguous history of this phenomenon and as well in its equally multivariate interpretation by the scientific community and the general public. Admitting as a fact the common weakness of Russian non-governmental relation, the author considered, practically as an exception, the work of military veteran communities as an example of the successful civil activity of the significant part of the population of the Russian state. Social, military veteran organisations act as a social institute created by the citizens apart from the state based on solidary interests of their members. At the same time, functioning as a structural element of the civil society they simultaneously represent the mechanism of political socialisation of veterans. Modern veteran organisations are founded and presented in the social and political space of Russia widely enough. It is movements, committees, unions, funds, associations. They have an extensive ramified network the local and regional levels, co-operate with similar communities in the countries of CIS and international organisations. Veteran organisations act as intermediaries between an individual and a group on the one hand and between society and the state from the other, contribute to the strengthening of the mechanism of their interaction, and form new systems of partnership. The issue of social protection and adaptation of military personnel, in particular, the combatants, will remain urgent for the Russian society in the longer term. Modern political practice, mainly counting on the military force in international affairs, promotes further growth of the number of veterans of wars and military service. Over the last few years, more than 50 thousand soldiers and officers participating in the military campaign in Syria became the members of Russian veterans. The quality of interaction of social organisations of military veterans and state structures has a determinant influence on th participation of the former soldier in socio-political processes. Today, powerful potential of these organisations, capable effectively influence state politics, is used by state structures in an insignificant degree. It can be explained by the unwillingness of the Russian elite and Russian business to interact with civil society.

The features of the mental health of 150 servicemen (an experimental group), who perform military service in submerged command posts, are analyzed in comparison with 60 servicemen whose professional activities are outside the influence of the conditions of these points (control group). It has been established that the mental health indicators of the military personnel of the experimental group differ for the worse in comparison with the same indicators in the control group.

Within the framework of psycho-prevention, it is advisable to conduct psychocorrectional measures with the use of methods of mental self-regulation, allowing to improve the neuro-psychological adaptation of military personnel.
