TBILISI. Sept 23 (Interfax-AVN) - The 364th guard battalion of the Russian military force headquarters in Transcaucasia will be disbanded in the framework of the general force reduction, a source at the headquarters told Interfax-Military News Agency on Tuesday.
"The original plan was to preserve the 364th and 149th detached guard, support and communication battalions of the force headquarters for a while," the source said.
The headquarters personnel will be reduced from 120 to 30 people before December 1 as a result of the reform launched by the North Caucasus military district commander. The civilian personnel will be halved from 80 to 40 people before the same deadline.
